So far we have the team of 6, Al is bringing a friend and Tom (Streetwing) will be here. Any others? Decided to do a cookout instead of Pacos. Plenty of room for overnighters somewhere in the place. Should be fun! . . . Oh by the way, I made a few modifications but the bike has been fully restored and is ready to go!

Do we have to wait until noon to arrive? Those of us only two hours away could conceivable be consuming beverages earlier.
