I've been asked...yes we're going to do it again.
I'm thinking August 12-14. There is a Fishtail trackday Monday the 15th. We should give it another chance to see if we all don't crash again. [laugh] Fishtail site to sign up if you're interested... www.fishtailridingschool.com (//http://) (//http://) (//http://) ...I'll be there regardless.
Inside space is limited as always...howie has a spot already.
Sign in so we have a clue what we're getting ourselves into.

That's a fancy fire right there, Dave.
Whole lot of extra work when we have a perfectly used up house that needs burning. Just not the barn that's attached to it.
Just so those that don't want to drag a tent along on a bike know...
we have sheltered sleeping arrangements.
Some might even call it 'inside'.

That's not us.
$100 bounty is offered for each of his eyebrows.
He'll likely have one, so shave them into two first or you'll shortchange yourself.
Bear attractant around his sleeping quarters is all in good fun.
Tied to the mast of the soon to burned boat? That's okay, but gag him first.

But I am coming! My question is this. Who IS planning on bringing a bike? Just in case?
Hope to have a sense of this by noon tomorrow....
Herm - On the fence. Will drag it over in the back of my truck if there is a chance of a ride, and folks to ride with.
Me!
Bringing the supermoto. As long as ONE person wants to ride, I'm in.
Also, 48 sliders better be enough
Still deciding between bike and car. Leaning towards bike, but the idea of many hours in a downpour both ways becomes less appealing as I get closer to 70.

HELLO . ..
I think I got drunk dialed last night.
Home after another successful DIMBY adventure [thumbsup]
While we were not hit by lightning last night, it DID strike close enough to knock out the internet service.....and boy was it close!
I'm guessing based on the lack of posts that the problem might still exist?
Posting from the phone. Still no internet, but the phone is back so they're working on it. I should check the router because all the lights have come back on the modem .
Great to see everyone as always.
I'm home now. Calling that strike close is an understatement.
So, beans exploded?

yes but that wasn't the big deal this year
some nasty storms were coming through, I'll attempt to describe what happened but words will fall short.
Basically within probably a 5 second period of time...
-there was a blinding flash
-ALL the lights went out
-there was a loud sound I can only describe as cannon fire or perhaps someone lighting dynamite if it were only 50 feet away
-then all the lights came back on
I still think we all died and this is now not real. [laugh]

I like the theory. I've never in my life been that close to a lightning strike. That was something else.
Some pics...

We currently have camp setup about halfway home.
Thanks to mr & mrs painter and to everyone that showed up. Cindy and I look forward to dimby every year because the laughs are nonstop, the food is great and the company is even better.
I wish I lived closer to you all but if once a year is all I get to see my internet friends then I'll take it.
Also, thanks go to herm for the education on how firefighting works. I learned some things.
Also, thanks go to oldfist in advance for shipping all my gear to me since I left make the beast with two backsing everything in a corner of painter's house ;D

I have some crappy video I'll edit tomorrow. I WISH I got the lightning strike but there's no way that could've been expected
you must expect the unexpected . . .
Thanks again to Nate for hosting, and a special shout out to T for all her hard work in the kitchen; she get my vote for MVP of the weekend.
Also, thanks for the tire lesson all that took the time to pepper me with (questionably) constructive criticism. i made it home without incident so I guess I properly ignored all the bad advice I got and somehow got the tires on without error.
I'll start a thread with some pics and notes once I'm on the road to the Lands of Espanol, so those that were interested in watching me screw up tire changes on a whole new continent can be entertained.
Chances I make it to DIMBY 17 are maybe 25% due to travel; but I put the chance there is still brisket left form DIMBY 16 by the time DIMBY 17 rolls around at around 80%.
I forgot to charge my camera battery, so only got a few pics in before it died. Monsterlover's new camper made its DIMBY debut:

Ooohh, it's all sparkly.
Home!
Countdown for the next one is on. :)
Home, almost no traffic, no rain. 91 instead of 93 is fantastic!
Great weekend, great food, great booze, great cider, and, most important, GREAT PEOPLE! Thank you to d, T, Z and all who made this another great DIMBY [beer]
Now that I think of it . . . I could fly in to JFK, LaGuardia or Newark and ride to DIMBY 2017 with any of the NY guys . . . maybe . . . who knows, a year in the making now . . .
Dan was wondering where he was in the age spectrum, postulating he might be in the top three oldest, whereas Nate suggested it was likely the top five.
I'm not sure he appreciated my comment of "If it's any consolation, I thought you were the oldest one here". :-*

Ok, I like it. Let's just leave it there...
Track day was a blast yesterday even if I didn't ride. I was working corner 3/10 and they even let me wave the flag some so I could feel useful!
I also have a terrible case of raccoon eyes because nobody told me to wear a hat. (Nate actually did but I was stubborn and wanted some sun on my noggin) By lunchtime when I finally donned the cap it was too late. At least nobody noticed... [roll]. [laugh]

Better than a sharp stick in the eye!
Once again my brain marinates in dimby cider [drool]
That was some tasty cider.
I was sitting about halfway up the table and someone said "Hey asshole".
So I looked, then asked "Hey, why'd I look?".
The guy then said "Everyone looked".

Everyone should have ;D
Since nobody got a shot of this, I promised Howie that it would make it's way back to the board.
Mr. squirrel was found parked under Howie's kickstand...

So...
another DIMBY has come and gone.
This one was damp...with the most impressive lightning strike I've ever experienced. We had no internet for over 20 hours...they came today and replaced the modem. The whole house surge protector did it's job and was a good investment.
As usual we want to thank everyone for what they do to contribute and make it a great time. Without all of you it just wouldn't be as special as it is and wouldn't happen. [bow_down]
T said that DIMBY will be done when the table is done...
I think Dan is thinking she shouldn't hold her breath on the table being done. ;D
Until next year. [thumbsup]
[thumbsup]
Dan and I were discussing some upgrades to beef it up....

Here's one option [thumbsup]
I knew I should have locked this after I posted. :P
Even after the table dies, we'll still show up at your house once a year to drink and sleep in your field ;D

Only if we can convert the Jetta into a giant smoker.
We can do several whole pigs at a time... or one DIMBY turkey.
