Great. Be ready to ride and have fun. Any mods or repairs finish early. You don't want to be working on the bike at the last minute. Trust me. Don't ask. Don't forget your ridding boots. Hope this helps. Any further questions just ask.

If you truck/trailer your bike then make sure you have all your riding gear. Apparently some here have good memories.  :blush:

Riding to the rally makes it easier to not forget your boots.

Yes, easy to forget things. Two years ago I forgot my sleeping bag. Guess where I got one. That's right Kmart.

You are not alone Kurt. I recall Simi Ed forgot his sleeping bag at his first rally.
Kmart to the rescue!

I got your message about also arriving in Willits on Wednesday, so after we get everything unloaded and have a cold one, you and I can go on a firewood run. The saw mill is right next to the KOA

How many more days? Is it time yet?
