Can you yet tell us at least what state it will be held in?  Thanks.

Roger, it appears that  there is a 93.14 % probability that the  rally will be  held in Maine. 

That's  unofficial.....just using my  brain.

Perfect opportunity to mount outboard motors on our tubs, for a day ride to Bar Harbor.  😎  Or maybe Oar Locks for those wanting to get in some exercise?  🤔

Would be an amazing opportunity to take an extended vacation, up into our 51st state.  🤩

What is wrong with your  noggin, Scott ?¿?¿?

You can drive....on land....to reach Bar Harbor. I was just there this past Spring. 

And....51st State.....why I  outta......Maine is the  very FIRST State.....that my little  eyes ever saw, as I  was born there last century.

You need to get some sun.  All that fog is entering your brain cells.  😉 

Sure, driving would be easy.  But it would be way more interesting to see one hundred Sidecar tubs rowing & outboard motoring to Bar Harbor.  Probably even make the national evening news.

51st state is Canada (old joke).  Hence the word "up" in that sentence.  Although a person could head pretty much any direction except south and east, and still end up at a Tim Horton's. 😎

mmmmmmm.  Tim Hortons.  I hope they are as good as they were in 1998 when I last experienced them.

When I think Tim Horton's the word "consistency" comes to mind. 

As a side note:  I thought that the unanimous conclusion for the location of the 2025 event was at Drew's place (@andrew-baker).  With the main sidecar game being to assemble a vintage racer blind folded.  🤩 

I've been practicing, but keep getting the engine installed upside down. 🤔

One of my favorite episodes of The Unit is when new recruit candidates are tasked to assemble a box of three handguns while blindfolded.  Two of the three candidates assemble three handguns while the third assembles four.  When asked why it is that the task was to assemble three and he has assembled four, his reply is "With respect, sir, add one."

The thing about TH donuts that I most appreciated(d) is that they aren't cloyingly sweet like the refuse KK produces and the texture is what DD wishes it could make.

Let's  all take a moment, and reflect on  what Thane has posted  above, and relate that same  message  to "motorcycles".

The thing about Honda Goldwings that I  most appreciate(d) is that  they aren't  annoyingly  loud like the refuse H-D produces, and the build quality is what BMW wishes it could  make.

Wait! wait! wait! 

Are you telling me that Skinner's Union made engines as well as carburetors?!?

I sure could use the help but only have room for like 3 rigs/tents.  There's a Tim Horton's 15 minutes from me.  It's only donuts and bagged coffee but we can brew the coffee when we get back to my yard.

I do have a pretty good view.
