I have 4 guys heading up with me from chicago.  Bikes include - M750, M696, 1971 R65, Honda Touring... anyone going out for drinks sat night in downtown madison?

I'm not going to make it, it seems I bit off more than I could chew with bike upgrades / repairs in the time allotted.
This is the latest I've ever not had my bike out   

yea i have to work...

Your boss never gives you off the weekends

Looks like I'm going to be there all by my lonesome.  Any other COWS going to be there?

wknds are tough to leave the store, my pizza guy is out today im stuck here, sucks.. lets plana trip after i take my total control class hopefully ill actually be able to turn my motorcycle

Made the Slimy Crud Run today!  318 miles of rolling.  My butt hurts but I'm still smiling.

NICE!

It was quite a spectacle at both ends of the ride.  I estimate there were close to 2000 bikes involved. 

I made it to the crud run as well, from LaCrosse. 

Lots of bikes, with even more harleys. 

WarrenJ, did you happen to see a yellow monster similar to the one you posted, but with no front fender, clip ons and under engine exhaust?  I wasn't parked far from the one you have pictured. 

I'm sure I did - sorry we did not get to meet!  There is a pic of my 750 Monster on the Intro thread - it has a unique tank paint job.  The ride was a good experience for me.  It was the farthest I have ever went on a motorcycle, through new country and roads and numerous new situations.  Making it through the trip without any major mishaps was a great confidence booster.
