I got yer back buddy.......A possibility exists I'll bring one that intentionally needs some work: group activity and all..😁
We could get a rain day. There is room to work on a XS650 in the vending lobby. Or, bring a portable canopy if you have that luxury.

My son was not sure, being 20 some years younger than I, whether he would fit in with this XS foolishness as we made our way to the Smokies.. Desmoman900 came out in the morning and greeted me with "Does your boyfriend know you are riding with this young guy" and my son knew instantly he would like this group.

I don't think reservations are desperate yet but I will be cancelling mine shortly
I have major surgery April 21st or soon thereafter so the odds of me going are bad to none
If anyone needs it they can have it in case the rooms are all booked already
I was stoked to do this but doctors seem to think otherwise
Next year guys (I sure as hell hope so!)
