I am going up, but not until Saturday morning. I think we have around 4 or 5 bikes going.

This will be my first year there, I hear it's a great time.

I planned on leaving today, it appears it is going to rain all weekend !!! According to a couple of weather sources. I had a 4 day weekend planned. Not going to waste my time riding 5 hrs in the rain,just to get there and be soaked for weekend.

I agree I am watching the wether also, just hoping that these are one of those times the weatherman is wrong. Luckily for me I am only 2 hours away so I can leave on Sat if all looks good and still have plenty of time to take it in.

Leaving AM Seven of us going looks like yhe more north you go the less rain , we will see a lot of positive thinking around here. Watching the weather channel now 70% chance for Saturday.( what are the chances the rest are watching also.) I just keep telling myself it,s the journey not the destination that counts.

Took a 5 hour ride up there back in the early 90's in the rain for the H-D party/open house. The entire weekend forecast was iffy at best. Still had an awesome time and lucked out a bit with the weather on that Saturday. Go for it...
