Bennington Triumph Bash
Of course Bennington , Vt. May 29 -June 1 Anybody considering a roadtrip? At first I thought,No way,but after pondering , I'm thinking about it. Newspeedmaster hardbags on order, backrest also,what for, a trip around our city?Wife and I are still in (discussion mode) About a vacation! She's thinking 'beach' , I'm thinking 'motorcycle'. I just wondered if anybody else from the twins forum are thinking about it,or even remotely thinking roadtrip.

I'm in the planning stages, got approval from the Command Group and will be putting in for leave in the next week or so. I'm probably going to cheat a bit and use the auto train from Orlando, FL to Virginia. Then ride the last 700 + change, maybe link up with some other guys/gals heading that way.

Don't forget your flat caps and kilts.

See you there.
I'm bringing the Famous Grouse, for those who might be thirsty.

I was just looking in to reserving a room.
I will be there along with a half dozen or more from S/E Mass.
And the numbers keep growing just about every day coming
from all over the east cost and some from across the country.
I have a feeling this is going to turn into something Really BIG.
See ya in Bennington.
Bill

Fully Commited!
Already have my reservations (Kirkside called me to confirm rooms and pricing this morning), Mrs. Hedge is definitely in, already have a partial posse traveling up RT 7 with another one traveling up RT 8 where we will converge into a single pack. I'm spreading the word to BA members as well and they are already making plans. We have invited the Westchester BMW guys if they want to come - they always invite Rats on their rides and they are some of the nicest guys you could ever want to meet. This should be an amazing time!

****NOTE****
If your even entertaining the idea of coming - do yourself a huge favor and make lodging reservations NOW! You can always cancel them later if you BO (Back Out). Lodging will be very tight so if you want to be in the middle of town, walking distance to everything - make them NOW!

Wouldn't mind hitting this one. Hopefully there will be many more post so groups can hook up. I'm near Chicago and wouldn't mind hooking up with the east bounders.
