Tim, @qwik, that is a serious bummer, as I was hoping to test out all your latest upgrades on your Double Bandit(o), vs the new supercharger I installed on my BattleWing Galactica. 

At least, now Scott and Dana, and John, and I can talk smack about you, without fear of getting slapped up against the backside of our heads.            Now there will be no question at all as to which is the fastest sidecar rig at the rally.

Well. To my regret.  I won’t be able to attend.  Holiday weekend and I work in the Resort lodging industry.  I am manager on duty that weekend and can’t get anyone to cover for me. Head Explody  

Bummer Tim.  I was looking forward to meeting up with you and checking out that awesome rig. 

But yeah, business first for sure.  Otherwise how are you going to finance the commissioning of the ultimate off-road adventure rig! 😎 

 

Hold my keyboard and watch this! 🙃

As quick as the wing is.  I think mine is a bit faster.  Keep me apprised of departures and route. I can take a day off and ride over the hill with you hooligans

Well, you can "think" yours is faster all you want but you are scared to death to show up and put that puny Zuk up against the mighty              BattleWing Galactica. (powered by Dilithium Crystals)

BattleWing (2)

Resistance is Futile !

For those of you that have lost count, and those of you that haven't been paying attention to the count...this Joyce Canfield's Sidecars in the Flint Hills Rally starts three (3) weeks from today.

Mark that on your calendar.

Sidecar rigs (and 2 wheeled motorcycles), and campers, and dogs, and one very ugly olde motorcyclist will be there.....

So, you too should Be There....or Be Square....like that Shrek guy, that is already square.

Tim, what I have for a plan now is I am heading to Spat's place on Tuesday, 9/3, solo since Scott and Miles are doing their own things. I will spend Tuesday night at Spat's and head to Scott City, Kansas Wednesday morning with Spat and we will spend Wednesday at the Best Western in Scott City where we will meet up with Miles. Thursday morning we will take a leisurely cruise over to Council Grove ending up at the rally.

This takes into account the last information I have heard from everyone.

I swear, the lack of memory for the residents of Colorado must have something to do with the THIN air they breathe.

Dana, the plans have not changed since the last time we talked about this....I am arriving at your house on the morning of Tuesday, Sept. 3rd, just before you leave...and you and I will drive our rigs to Spat's house. Tim was possibly thinking of meeting up with us somewhere along that route, but it may be latter that day...now...because he couldn't bribe his boss into letting him take the vacation time. When we get to Spat's house, I already have a reservation at a local hotel, where I will spend the night.

On Wednesday morning, you, and Spat, and I will drive our rigs to Scott City, Kansas, where all of us already have reservations at the Best Western hotel.

All I need from you, Dana, is a time that you think you will be leaving your house on Tuesday morning.

I will be at you house 15 minutes before you leave.

I probably won't leave until 9:30 if that works for you. If Tim wants to cruise to Denver with us we can pick him up at our usually rendezvous spot at the No Name rest area. It will take us an hour and a half or so to reach that location so if we text Tim when we leave then he will know how to time it.

Dana...YES...I will be in your front driveway at 9:14, and 38 seconds....exactly !!!!!!!

I'm just leaving from Delta that morning, so it's a 5 minute drive....on a BattleWing Laughing Out Loud
