It's Slimey Crud Run time again!
Wife and I are going, bikes to be determined, who else is coming?
We need to beef up the XS650 contingent.

I'd love to do it once. Bucket list item before Eagan kicks his.
Shamelessly stolen SCR blurb.
The SLIMEY CRUD RUN should be on every
motorcyclist’s “Bucket List.” Peter Egan once
referred to it as a bunch of guys with café racers
going for a little ride. But it’s more than that. Nostalgia,
thumpers, and café fairings rule the day; with
shell helmets, worn-out leather jackets, and goggles
worn by young riders who were born too-late for the
first go-round of these machines.
Enjoy a leisurely Sunday morning, then plan to
arrive at Leland (only 65 twisty miles south of
Tomah) in the early afternoon.
From the vintage to the new, this event is like
Candyland for Bikers. Check out more information
at slimeycrud.com, and add it to your weekend
schedule if you can.

First Slimey crud weather forecast

I need to make a trip to Madison and get some titles transfered and hopefully collector license plates this week. Should be riding a "to be determined" XS650.

Well I showed up in Leland soaked and tired. 115 miles there with a few stops and 90 miles were in the rain. It was blast only a handful of bikes were there. I only seen 1 other xs650 a 75 that was very clean. I'm looking forward to the october run.
Well you are a lot braver than I, it was pouring rain here this morning and I stayed home. I think the 75 belongs to a friend from Sauk City. Yup next fall and the Wildcat Mountain ride on Labor day weekend.
Nice looking 79 Bergoff!

Yep that's the guy. We made it to Argyle and had to stop my friends 79 cb750 died it had a cracked coil. We waited 30 mins at a gas station. Another guy almost called it quits halfway to Leland. Only the parking lot across from the bar was full and maybe 30 were in front of it. But there were a few neat old rides. My rat cafe was getting some looks. One of the best was an old Triumph that was cherry.

I'll be there rain or shine.
I swear no matter what, I will be there on an XS650!
Which one is an entirely different question.
My wife will ride one also if there are two running come next weekend, and the weather isn't TOO bad.
They are currently saying low 50's partly cloudy for next Sunday. That'd be OK.

I plan to be at the Blue Moon for breakfast then head out to Pine bluff and will ride up to Leyland noonish? before returning home. So anywhere's in there!
See you at the Crud! I'll be wearing my Black XS john ball cap.
Dang, I am very sorry I missed you, you should have followed us to Baraboo! My wife rode to Leland on her Shadow, wanted to go home to see the rest of the Packers game. Turns out we should have stayed. I saw about 10 XS650s, I think I got pics of all of them, that's the most I have seen since I started going. Talked to three others who were not on their 650's. It was a bit "bracing" at 8 this morning.
I'll post up some pics later.
