I used to go about 10 years ago.  Nowadays I have to work on Sundays.  Usually there is a dyno truck there if you wanted to run and see what kind of power you are making.  Have fun.

I'll try to make the July ride.  That would be great to put my bike on the dyno and see what it makes.  I wonder how much they charge for a non Harley?

These are special, low performance dyno machines.  I think a Concours would blow up the dyno.   ;D

I may think about a July trip there.

I work tomorrow but the July run sounds good.  Looks like we arent too far from each other Pynikal.  I work at the airport and live north of Liberty.

I am in for August (July is no good since we will be at the Lake for Independence Day).  My wife is still trying to decide if she wants to ride that far with me.  If I can figure out a way for her to cross stitch while riding pillion, I know she would go.
