........anyone else gonna be there? Ive been riding for about 12 years and this will be my FIRST actual "run". (like with a large group of people)

Saturday, April 18th.

Any one else???

 

I hope to ride it this year.

I REALLY hope it is better weather than last year.

I grew up in Winona mn been on approx 15 of them hope to go

 

I was thinking about doing the flood run too. I have ridden for years but have never been on a large scale ride.

I have a question for anyone that has been on the ride in the past. I looked at the web site and was wondering if all you need to do is buy a wristband? It sounds like it is a pretty loose ride and could be a lot of fun.

 

It's a lot of fun and you don't need a wristband, its optional for charity. A year or two ago there were around 15,000 bikes on the spring run when it was nice weather.

All in all a pretty "loose" run, you do your own thing and stop off in the little towns for beverage or food. I would recommend stopping in maiden rock, there are some real nuts that do burnouts/wheelies all day long up the hill in town. I hate to say it but its fun to watch and see what happens.

 

I plan on going last year was cold but still a ton of fun. I agree Maiden Rock was a blast, and it's very low key just ride at your own pace and stop when and wherever you want. If anyone is interested in meeting or getting a group together from here let me know.

 

Thanks for the info, I grew up in Wisconsin and have a couple of friends that are going to try to meet me for the ride.

 

I was wondering if you were going to go this year. You are more than welcome to join us again if you like. I think we'll have a little bigger group this year and hopefully you don't have to freeze your a$$ off on the way down.

 

You bet. As long as the weather is good you'll have fun.
