I think I am the only one that posts. I am not even an official member of the Ukes brag club. Went to a couple meetings last year, but then I kinda went into seclusion. |

Has anyone already planned on meeting at Hal's to ride together to the open house on Saturday? If not, I would like to put together one. I've talked to Drew and Mike S, and they would like to meet up and ride together. So if anyone else would like to ride together, just let me know. We need to set a good time to meet up there, so just give suggestions, thanks. Jeremiah |

Someone had started up a Yahoo groups page for the BrewCityBRAG group. I never registered so I don't know if they are discussing meeting times there for the 3rd. |

Where approximately is the GratefullDead concert so I can avoid the/any traffic. I'm thinking I should get a sign to wear on a vest that states I'm not going to the concert so follow someone else. |

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the shows start at 9:00am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would NOT travel on I-43 or Hwy 120 (from the south). If traveling from Milwaukee, take secondary roads. If traveling from Chicago, take US 20. I'm not sure Buell was expecting the cluster fuck that will be happening at Alpine Valley. There will be National Guard patroling the area! With the factory being that close to I-43, it will be a mess getting there. I'm still trying to figure out my route from Lake Geneva. Mennis |

I wonder how National Avenue will be. East Troy with that round-a-bout is going to be a total zoo. Maybe they'll just wave anyone on a Buell through any roadblocks. How many people do they expect to show up at the concert anyway? I know there have been news reports of people putting out the word that if people don't have a ticket then they should stay home. Sounds like a huge attendence is expected. |

I think you best (for the grin factor alone) route would be Hwy 89 to Hwy 67 to Cty LO to Cty E. Or Hwy 67 to Hwy 20? Another idea would be I-43 to Mukwonago. Then take ES to East Troy. I'll be taking Hwy 67 to Hwy 20 into East Troy from Lake Geneva. From what I've heard, the National Guard troops will be strictly for traffic control. |

Jerry/Blastin', Are you going to be around Saturday? Or are you heading down to East Troy to co-mingle on the round-a-bout with the DeadHeads goin' round 'n round? Anyways, I can pick up the hoist and stuff on Saturday since I'll probably be cagin'it that day (stuff to do that won't fit on the bike). MikeJ |

Mike, I'll be in Perrott State Park.(North of La Crosse on the Mississippi) Got a campsite on the river bluff for me and the mrs. I think this will be the first weekend in like 3 months that we can spend together. Leaving Thursday night. If you want to pick them up any other time let me know. I can also take a ride. There's a fish dealer up your way, Kewaskum I think, that sell's Discus fish that would be really cool to check out as long as I'm heading up that way. Anybody, If your heading to the Buell factory on Saturday for an autograph from Mr. Buell and have room for a Blast windscreen on your bike, please let me know. Back in June the pavement wasn't too kind or considerate to my windscreen and erased Mr. Buell's signature. (That's the problem with pavement, it just doesn't respect anybody or any body!) I would like to get a new signature. I can drop it off at Hal's by Rick if you'd like, you can pick it up from me, or I can deliver it too you. Let me know if you can make my Blast whole again. Thanks, Jerry |

No problem, have a good weekend. Keep me in mind if nobody else can help with the bugscreen signature. I need to go pester the motorclothes ladies again anyway about my jacket (currently 3+ weeks overdue from Vanson). |

I think that everyone who would like to meet at hal's on the third might like to do so at 9 am. So can we make that official? Yeah, let's say meet at 9 and leave by 9:30. I'll try to find a route that will not be congested with trafic, but if anyone else has a better one, more power to ya. |

All- As f'd up as this sounds, I'll try to meet you at Hal's on Saturday. I have to run into Milwaukee in the morning. I'm hoping to have what I need done completed by 9:30am. I'll only be a few minutes from Hal's. Jeremiah- Please post the route on Friday. If I miss the group, I'll try to catch you en route. |

Like you caught up to everybody on the Wildcat trip when they decided to go West instead of East??? Way to much traffic for that. Although the chances of horse and buggy are less...errr scratch that... we proved horse and buggy exist in the Kettle Moraine on Memorial Day. I won't be able to make the Buell factory so have a good time everybody. Mike, I will drop off my windscreen by Rick tonight. If you can pick it up, great. If not don't worry about it. Rick is off on Thursday's. Ride safe, Jerry |
