Yes, I have already registered for this Dachsentreffen gathering in Montello, Wisconsin....YOU knew I would....and have already made hotel reservations along the 2,200 mile road trip, each way, to get from Olympia, Washington to Montello, Wisconsin.

Helps that my sidecar rig has a 1,560 watt alternator on the 2019 Goldwing, and 30 years proven Gerbing Heated Clothing, so...I "should" be relatively warm doing this 4,400 miles roundtrip in late January/early February.

Gulp..... Scared ......anyone want to join me on this "adventure" ??????

Let's see....if I combine Thane's Mountain Passes with Steve's note of the Devil in me....it all comes together as I will be riding right past the Devil's Tower in Wyoming.

Yeah... that makes sense.

Miles,

 

I have a lot of friends in Wisconsin and was thinking of attending this as an excuse to visit with them afterward. Maybe I’ll see you there. Then again, after living so long in AZ I’m not so sure I’d be able to handle the cold.

Calling Dave Bigelow, @davefran

We know you live in Wisconsin, and this would be a relatively close sidecar ride for you, albeit a COLD adventure.

Come on, Dave....it's in the area of Montello, Wisconsin, at a small farm in the area...come see what all the fun is about.
