Mostly just regional/state get-togethers. Michigan clan pioneered the very first one & have the 2nd annual in the planning stages. Seems to be a move afoot by the NY brethern!

i think its really good for the site to have meets. with the MI group setting up their 2nd ride, and now the NY riders, this is good promotion imo. plus didnt the canucks set up a mini-ride too last year, and are planning a bigger one this winter?

what would really be sweet is if we could get a ride in the western part of the UP. then we could have the MI, WI, and MN riders/members. maybe dano and cobra would join too.

we've wanted them (dano/cobra) to join but they're just to busy or w/e. but it would be cool to ride with the pioneers of this forum.

I would love to take a ride out to Michigan and ride with all of the guys out there, it is like a 14 or 16 hour ride for me but maybe next year i can take the time off from work and go out there. If i get a new job like i have been doing then in about 32 years i can. The jobs is for the state and they own you in the winter because you have to plow snow.

It's a nice thing to get RIDES going on with forum members. I can personally say that I have met some great people from here in MI. so far to RIDE with. I hope this can go on for years to come!

i would have to agree with ya there rida, although the couple I meet last year that couldnt avoid a rock, hmmm i dunnnooo.....

J/K guys, the whole group I meet on the ride last year was just plan oll nice guys. I have to say, if there is anyone in the 8 hour drive radius you should really come out this year for the pres ride. It was a blast.

Even for a guy that never rode seriously before, these seasoned die hards, welcomed me with no problem.

Hey now!!! I warned the person behind me about that rock. It was the second sled that didn't pass the warning to the next sled.

^^ no kidding you didnt hit it...cuz when i hit the rock my sled darted almost 90* to the left and into the woods. that should be enough warning that something bad happened ahead.
