I talked with S.M. H-D today and found out that the prize package this yearhas a "Bar & Shield" theme as opposed to last year's Skull theme.

I was told that it includes a leather hat, travel mug, picture frame and a bunch of other stuff. The woman I spoke with thought this was the biggest and best prize package they have ever given.

Sounds good to me. I'm really looking more forward to sharing the ride and a meal or two and perhaps a drinkwith everyone. The prize package is really just icing on the cake.

Just counting down the time until 9am Saturday morning!

Sounds Great! Hope it will fit in the tour pack
Checked the weather on Weather Underground....30% chance of rain on Friday but clear/partly cloudythough cool over the weekend.

Expected weather:

--10% chance ofrain both days--
Saturday Simi 67, S.B. 63, S.M. 65
Sunday Simi 69, S.B. 63, S.M. 67

Dress warm [&:]

 

Did someone say the chance of rain is increasing? I do believe the weatherman did. Lets cross our fingers that We are clear by Saturday morning and it doesn't come inup north until Late Sunday [:@]

 

Hope the weather cooperates with us.
I do not have rain or cold weather gear.

Looking forward to this weekend.

Thanks L.Ron.

Weather.com is now saying 40% of showers. Hopefully by Sunday it will change to 0%.

Hope to see you there.

As for those carrying external bags or luggage, I'd suggest bringing some large garbage bags if you do not already have rain coversjust in case.

And don't forget to bring extra bungie cordsjust in case as well.

Rain or shine, I'm ready to ride!

We don't have rain gear either....[&:]

 

Dress warm for this weekend.

Found this "Wind Chill Factor" calculator, don't know how accurate, but it gives you an idea.

Argh...If I don't get time to buy rain gear I might be a cage bunny.
Hopefully hubby went to look today!

 

Bluerose, no way you are taking a cage.
I found this very fashionable rain suit at Lowe's for 10 bucks.
It's canary yellow so it's stand out making it safer.

If you don't have time and would like one or two of these very fashionable rain suits
give me a call Friday (I have the day off) between 8 to 12, and while I am running errands,I'll, pick it up for you.

My number is on the list Primo emailed earlier.
