- July 13, 2013, 12:32:25 PMI'm having a senior moment. I think I registered for the Drift-In, but I can't remember for sure..... Is there any way I can check to make sure this got done along with getting my t-shirt ordered??? I do have a room at the hotel for me and David and Sandy already booked though. Looking forward to another great gathering!!

- July 12, 2013, 12:29:28 PMI almost caused a disaster. I washed my bike in preparation for the trip to Helen. I decided to take it out and get it all buggy again (around here, a quick ride up the river is all it takes). I just checked the forecast for next week in Helen...let's hope it's correct!

- July 04, 2013, 09:44:46 AMLooks like BamaBikerMom and I are going to attend. We will likely be rolling in around 10:30pm Friday and leaving Sunday morning. At least we will be there for the Saturday ride, bike show and banquet.
We aren't driving as far as most of you only a measly 210 miles. I'm impressed with the with the all the iron butts out there.
here's our route...
https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Arab,+AL&daddr=Helen,+GA&hl=en&ll=34.393312,-85.105591&spn=2.461168,5.410767&sll=34.735063,-85.113862&sspn=2.451017,5.410767&geocode=FUanCwIdsi3Y-inLn3O5eOaJiDFUzztgYdReVg%3BFayAEQIdkFsC-ymhKjoL1DdfiDGoI2XZ_jfVjg&oq=he&dirflg=h&mra=ls&t=m&z=8
No interstates for us, almost all of it is just 2 lane blacktop west of Rome,GA.

- July 03, 2013, 07:52:32 AMThe Vaquero is a recent addition - we traded another bike on it - it's the one he rides when comfort is a factor...with a bad back the ride is now very important for anything over about an hour....and on the plus side it fits me too for the days when I just want a bit more power! Very nice bike and it was a deal we just couldn't refuse....probably gonna stay stock though. Really this is the bike he wants there with us to ride daily....but wants to show you all his hard work on the others!
The next project is going to be a "rat bike". Ok, well after I get the one done I'm working on now - a 1500 that will be carbon fiber wrapped with apple green metallic striping - it's for sale, or it will be if I ever get it done. =)

- July 03, 2013, 07:46:27 AMHe bought his drifter after our son totaled his victory. He had ridden my 800 (our first drifter) and really liked it, so went looking for a 1500...and then added a few little things...we get bored in Indiana over the winter...

- July 03, 2013, 07:32:52 AMThe rims are powder-coated - this project was started a year and a half ago and just finished about 2 weeks ago - - - been ridden four or five times since complete. I will try to post a before and after on here. You wouldn't believe the amount of pieces on this bike/sidecar that were from swap meets and junk piles! The "guns" are/were chair legs - seriously. Yes, the propeller turns. We have it pinned except when riding in town as at about 35 mph it gets really scary sounding....afraid we're gonna burn out the bearings. I'll post a link to the facebook album.
He really wants to bring it....I don't want to drag a 32' trailer....
