I doubt I'll be able to join everyone at Sturgis this year. It was to be my father and I's first year going. I rode 1740 miles from Vegas to Illinois to visit and then ride up this Friday with my dad and a friend, but we may not be going now. My grandfather (mom's father) has been hospitalized on and off for the past year. Back 4 years ago, he had a double lung transplant. After that, he had a colon problem from the antibiotics killing all the good bacteria so he was always getting sick. Well, all the meds they were pumping up into him have killed his kidneys and he's sick of being sick. So they're bringing him home tomorrow and putting him on hospice. So any day now, he should be passing so there will be the visitation, funeral and such. Our cabin in Sturgis is reserved from this Saturday to the following Thursday, and I have to be back in Vegas on the 15th. I now know what the saying "Can't have your cake and eat it too." means.

Have fun up there in the Hills guys. I'm crossing my fingers I can make it up, but no promises.

 

Good luck hopefully this week will turn out better!

 

Very sorry to hear that. Thoughts and prayers with you and your family during these times. I will have one for you! Sturgis will be there next year, best to take what time you have left with your grandfather.

 

Best wishes.
