PS - I'm bringing the sound deadening earbuds Monkey, so let 'er rip!

My snoring has gotten quieter, but don't worry, my flatulence is making up for it.

I wake myself up farting sometimes...  but of course the aroma comforts me back to sleep almost immediately.  Game On!

40% chance of rain on Thursday but 0% after that and upper 70's/low 80's.

I got this message below from Ron yesterday that he will not be attending. That is all of the details I have, I was not aware of him having a incident, but it never sounds good when you hear/read "FJ totaled". Please keep him in your thoughts.

Hey Randy!

Thanks for the heads-up on the RPM Rally!  My primary FJ was totaled in Montana and my backup FJ needs a going-over to be street ready.  That won't happen before this weekend, so I wish you all safe riding and much laughter!  Say hi to the crew!

He seems ok based on his statement, I sure hope he is. He also has a non-FJ option that he picked up for his Alaska journey. You don't even need a bike to attend.

Ok, at the very last minute, I'm in!

Taking a special trip back to Palm Desert to pick up my mistress, I'll see you galoots on Friday.

Ryan, if you want to leave Phoenix Thursday afternoon, you can stay at my house in Palm Desert Thursday night, we can leave for Oakdale 0 dark thirty on Friday. This will make your long trip easier.
Most often the buddy system is best.

Regardless, DO NOT take the 210 thru Pasadena. Even in the HOV lane, you will be in the stop and go morning crush from Ontario thru Pasadena. BTDT, trust me not the way you want to start your tour.
From I-10 take the 210 to the I-15 north then take Hwy 138 west all the way to Gorman where you will pick up I-5 then north to Oakdale, or 99 north if you wish.
This will bypass the LA crush cluster flok

Randy, sorry for the last minute notice. Just one of those things.    Cheers Pat

All good, glad you are able to make it after all.  :good2:

Heck, if anyone wants to riding in unannounced, I think we can sort it all out...

Showing up unannounced - that was what I always did.

To all you lurkers out there, just show up and I guarantee you will feel right at home and have great time.

This is the first rally I am officially on the list. :good2:
