WE are off to the Americade Rally.. Unfortunately Maryann ( Yellow Trike at the NE TT Rally last year ) will not be joining us for breakfast . She suffered a blockage in her aorta on WED and was Life Stared to the hospital and they had to install a stynth, Close call. Lucky she works at a health care facility and it saved the precious min. I sold one friends trike 3 weeks ago and i am not wanting to sell another for a long time .

John,

Sorry about MaryAnn!! Glad she's ok!!! See you later this week - I'll be in LG on Wednesday!! epper:epper:

Sorry to hear that. Sally & I will arrive in Lake George Monday looking forward to seeing you all. Need a vacation, it's been the worst weather around here, set all kinds of weather records but if you put it in perspective, other parts of the country are getting it worst @ times. I'm eager to get going.....:woohoo::Biker:

This has been the best year yet for Americade . TEMPs. in the 80's and 90's.One brief storm blew threw last night cooled things off a bit. Down town is a buzz of excitement...

Got home yesterday about 2:00pm, good weather all the way. It was nice meeting a few of you at Long Shots, sorry that I didn't bring my trike to breakfast. My cabin is just up the block so I walked. I had a great week met up with many old friends and met many new ones. Only 51 weeks and I'll be back.

John: what kind of weather did you run into on the way home? We left in our raingear & wore it all the way back Home, we did hit some nasty rainstorms, I ran 20 west most of the way back since I had to pull over quite a bit to let my wife stretch, she fell in the room Saturday night while we were packing, of course it was a bag that I just set down so she'll be going to the Doctor's tomorrow, she banged up her knee and shoulder. I'll tell you, there is some great riding around Lake George, we took a few trips over to Vermont, here's a shot from Saturday of our Trikes....Tis

Great to see some of the Trike group at Long Shots. Americade was absolutely fantastic this year, but too bad it rained on Sat, would have been nice to see more people come out to Long Shots. See you all next year and on the boards in the meantime.
