THANK you BIG DOG. GREAT JOB. Nice to see everyone in between our other events. I really appreciate all that you did to put this together. I still think we should call these gatherings REUNIONS and not Rally's. A few people do get confused as to what it is all about. THANKS AGAIN FRED

Charlie, Marge and I enjoyed visiting with you and Marietta too and we appreciate your input on organizing rides, meal stops and various other facets of hosting events like this. Its obvious youve got a lot of first hand experiance in that area via your work at your Harley dealership and its Hog Chapters. These events are always a group effort, so we will be in touch with you for more input on future projects, thanks.

Its always great being with our trike friends and especially nice meeting members we've never met. You get to know folks pretty well here on the forum, their personality, likes, dislikes, etc but not like you do when you spend time with them in person at these events. Theres no better way to make new friends than this and we have made many life-long friendships right here.

Thanks, found the problem. It was the nut behind the handlebars.

That happens to all of us more than we care to admit.
