Registration with steak dinner went through swimmingly and charged accordingly. Marty's just being a dork.

Unfortunately for me, I will not be there. Somebody else is gonna have to flip off Marty and bigjohn in person. Tough decision, but clear. Its a no go for me.

"That's a Bingo!"

You win Ray. As soon as I accepted Josh's offer to eat Steak at his place and campout in his living room in my sleeping bag, I knew it was going to be a three day trip.

Probably head west from Josh's to see if Zzzzip in Palmyra can still kick my ass, then stay at cousin's place in Lincoln, NE...I know he can still kick my ass. Then head north and west from there to the old farm place and Rosehill cemetery on the hill where my sister and grandparents are buried, before hightailing it up and northwest through Nebraska and hit Spearfish Canyon as the last stretch of road before flipping Marty and BigJohn off in person.

For Pete’s damn sake, Wheaton!! After all these years of listening to shite, I was looking forward to meeting you and seeing if all of Marty’s stories about you are true. Not that Marty would ever make up anything.

Im sorry. Im just as pissed. It may also be a precautionary move...I have been told you are a problem solver and own lots of land. Anyone that can host Jason, Zilla, and Marty at the same time has got his shit together. Im just too old to do what I have always wanted to do. That long distance motorcycle touring ship has sailed away from me.

I have taken up a knife throwing act with Louanne. She tells me she is real good at it.

Got “official”!approval from SWMBO. Basically it was a reminder I was going.

Called Alex at BH moto for a couple last minute items that I will pick up in person. If you have moto stuff you are buying, it’s worth giving him a call. He is a person who has been good to the moto community, he is a real person behind the business and not some giant company.

Now I just need to find a campsite, register for dinner, and start downloading GPX track. I am going to be on the 450. The plan is to ride the BDR-X off road and then ride as much of the Wyoming BDR that I can.

The bike is ready and I can’t wait to get out there.

Those of you that are camping, do you know what sites you are planning on snagging? It might be nice if we can get sites together.

If you are talking about the campground in Spearfish, the tent camping area is open with no assigned sites. Keep in mind that there is no electric available in the tent area. They also do not allow tents on the RV sites. That is the reason we bailed on camping there. Gary needs electric.

Great…Canada Border Services Agents will be going on strike this afternoon. If the strike isn’t settled by my departure date it could mean a delay getting back into Canada…hopefully they settle before the 19th.

That means you'll have to stay and ride longer, according to the Canadian govt? Ummm....yeah, strike, please!
