I don't like to disagree with a fellow club member, but I think your 83 dresser would have looked AWESOME in Rob's driveway.

I agree, variety is good. Heck, the V-Strom and the Yamaha Warrior didn't get kicked out.

Heck, if my parent's hadn't already had plans there would have been an 1800 trike there. And as anyone there could tell you, there was lot's more room. Could have parked 2 cages without them getting close to the bikes.

Looks like a lot of fun. I'm from Portland, IN originally and still have family there. Maybe I can make an excuse to go visit and make the next meet up.

I seemed to have missed this thread. Glad you guys were able to get together.
