Default The River Run is calling me....

Hey Gang! (No pun intended)

43 years of riding and not one big rally to my credit. My birthday is during the Laughlin river Run and my two grown sons are interested in making the run with their old man. Anyone making the trip this year? Even my wife is willing to make the trip this year. Life is good....

Howdy, first, I like the pic of your ride. If the mood hits you to go on a run, I would do it and if your kids wanted to go with you, I would enjoy the adventure as long as I could. It's great doing things with the kids, makes you feel young again. Enjoy the ride.

Dick,

We are going to the Laughlin River Run this year. We are staying at Harrah's, and will be there on the afternoon of 4/20/05 through 4/23/05.

If you are interested in meeting up let me know. I would really like to meet some of the people from the forum.

I am picking up the Mascot from "Tripper" in Ash Fork on the way home, and plan to take it East until I can find someone else to carry it on.

Regards,

Bill

Dick,

You might want to get with Tripper and see if you could bring the mascot with you to Laughlin. I had planned to pick it up on the way home from Laughlin, but if you got it to Laughlin, we could have some of the Calif, and Az guys sign it before it starts East. Tripper lives in Prescott. I don't know how close that is to you, but if it is close it is something to think about. We could leave it at the desk of either the Riverside or Harrah's, and guys could sign when they wanted to, then I could leave with it Sunday morning.

My cell is 1-505-215-4978. Wife's is 1-505-330-4029.
