Just in case you missed it, I posted a poll asking about rallies here: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=10551
Please take a moment and make your preferences known. We need more participation in putting something together.

Either garage is too small or we have too many bikes. Or Momma's car needs to go outside.

Re: Rally Poll
Rich,
You're welcome. But, the real thanks needs to go to the folks who have gone to the effort to plan and host an event, even if nobody came. I've been lucky enough to go to a couple of really fun events with very low attendance. It takes about the same amount of planning and preparation even when only 3 or 4 folks show. The lap around Lake Michigan was a hoot, with a total of three participants (the planner, my wife, and I). At least we didn't have difficulty getting the group seated at the micro breweries we visited each evening.
We need two things to happen to have successful rallies. Volunteers to plan and host, and a means of getting the message out. The best vehicle for this is the CBXPress, but it need articles to fill the pages for further issues. So, again, we need volunteers to write those articles. Notice the word "volunteer" keeps coming up. This is, after all, a volunteer organization. It takes more than just ideas, it takes effort.
