I think the spirit starts, traditionally, with pints of stout...

Oh, and speaking of stout spirits and such, I was over @ Rust Restoration last night helping the proprietor
tinker on his new 749/Monster suspended 1975 Triumph bobber... that should be there and is worth checking out.

It's loud enough Duke was shaking and looking for a place to hide  ;D

I was hoping he was going to ride over. Did he get the chain in yet? Maybe this morning? Glad you posted, now I don't feel bad if I were to be "the spoiler"  :o  ;D  [thumbsup]

Boobies, ( love saying that ;D ), FYI Guzzi's were well beloved for cafe racers. They are very much included. In fact if you'd like to see all sorts of bikes that are 'accepted' check out http://www.caferacermag.com/. Billy Joel, the musician, even gets in on the scene.

Rich is right, just be yourself. I've got a T-shirt from The Ace Cafe in London and that's about all I have in common with a cafe racer this weekend so WTF. You'll be a star anyway just showing up. Chicks on bikes are always hawt.  [moto]  [thumbsup] We need more smiley's. just sayin...

What about the meet and greet tonight @ The Bel happy hour and music by The Smoke?  [beer]
CJ and I are riding Saturday morning from FW around 9:30.  [moto]

No, you have to register but if you plan on going to Lee Harvey's and Trees afterwards then you'd have to pay the regular admission price into those venues. I think that Lee Harvey's where the judging takes place is about $10-15 to get in + lots of beers.  [drink] Thing is if you register you get a spiffy t-shirt and free entry into all venues. I'd sneak ya in in my tank bag if I could.  ;D
What time tonight?  I may make this too ;D

SO what classifies a moto as a "Mod" or a "Rocker"?  Or is it the rider that's classified?  I think I've got it figured that scooters are "Mods" and everything else is "Rocker."  What about my 2002 Guzzi Le Mans?  Not a vintage bike (well maybe the motor  [bang]  [laugh] ) but still... "Rocker"?

Just get u'r ass down there...

Good description.  [thumbsup]

Alrighty then.  The Guzzi is topped off, hosed off and ready to go for tomorrow's extravaganza.  Hell, it might even start with all of the attention its been getting lately.  Nah, what are the chances?

I'd like to ride to this deal with RED and CJ; is there a good place we can meet in the morning on your way through the Irving/DFW Airport/Las Colinas area?
