Anybody going to the BMW National Rally this week?

[Norwegian Blue]

I'm heading out tomorrow morning for the rally in West Bend, Wisconsin. Don't have an ST-N cap or sticker, so I was wondering if any other STNers plan to be there.

[MCRyder]

Yep, headed out Wednesday and arriving Thursday.  My K1100RS has a bad fuel pump   so it'll be a no-show.  Look for an electric blue '03 Triumph Sprint ST, it should stand out at a Beemer rally, that'll be me.

Kewl. I'm on a pretty average looking black R1150R, so it'll be hard to pick out.

My tent, on the other hand, will have pink flamingo tent pegs. Easy to identify....

Anyone else?

Does this mean you do not belong to the BMW RA and, hence, were both unaware and did not attend the rally in Asheville, NC, which I would have if my nephew, former resident of Asheville, NC, and now resident of the UAE, had not chosen to get married the weekend ending the rally in Hillsborough, NC, thus forcing me to choose between family and riding family and this is a non-contest as my GF (who is GF) had not prior nor heretofor met, interacted, associated with, nor had been tet-a-tet with the majority (not excluding the minority) of my blood relatives who gathered for the wedding mentioned?

I've been reading too much Eco.

I may make a day trip out of it sometime this weekend.  Either Saturday morning or more than likely Sunday morning.  

My bike has ST.N stickers and a F.U.C.K.E.R.S. sticker.  The Givi Topcase has various stickers including a Femmoto.com sticker.  My helmet was decorated with the help of an 8 year old.  

I may be traveling with my Borgie Bear.

Be careful leaving the neighborhood. . ..

I'll keep an eye open for you! If you remember from Mr. & Mrs. Duck's holiday party, I'm the fellow with the pony tail.

And the pink flamingos around my tent.

THAT I have got to see!

I'll be there. But you know that already.  

Lurkers: I'll be on the red K1200RS, with the checkerboard graphic from the yellow/gray model.

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.  

Well, I headed up Tuesday to help setup Got a 20x30 canopy for the Chicago club and got my tent pitched. Then I had time to help. I even scouted out a test ride route. I wonder if they'll use it.

Cindy and I head up tomorrow. I'll be on a proper Dakar yellow K1200RS with the checkerboard graphic.    And Cindy will be on a steel blue F650CS. Stop by the CR canopy behind the food concourse and say hi. I'm not sure how much I'll be there, but someone should be there to welcome.

Well, the rally has happened. Blue, it was good to see you. Since I don't know any of the rest of you by name or face, I don't know if any of you were there. Oh, well. I hope the rest of you had a good time.

[Stargzrgrl]

I think I was the only one there wearing an ST.N t-shirt.  

It got a lot of attention as it was the one from the 2006 ST.N meet in WV with the Sport-Touring DNA.  

Oh well, did see some friends and met a few new ones.  All in all it was a great rally!  

[DrMikey]

Was there Friday and Sat, ran into a whole buncha old friends from Chicago Region, but didn't see no STN paraphenalia. Attended a seminar on riding smooth- see my post about going "snick, snick".

[HankB]

Good to see some other STNers at the rally.

OK!
