Is this an FUV event, or just anyone that wants to show up in anything?

I'll convince my wife to let me go if y'all will be there.

Anyone can go, although if you don’t do the drive, I’m guessing the Q&A would be around noon. I’ll be there - I’m trailering in.

Last time I stopped by the rental shop they were moving to another location.

Is it still near Ninkasi or will it be at the original location?

I shall be sitting there talking with redpoint5 when the rally rolls in.

My daughter's birthday is the 16th, but the closest weekend is the 13th. Could schedule her celebration for the 14th except that's mother's day. Apparently we've booked every day this year as something, so we can do nothing.

May the fourth be with y'all.

*I'm still a maybe

Quite curious that mother's day is the same there as it is in my country, while father's day here is only in August. Not to mention the equivalent to Valentines day here is in June.

Interesting. What do you reckon it can pull in lateral G?

I am seriously looking into getting a motorcycle as a toy but I don't think I would really ride it on the street much due to fear of danger. A caged 3 wheeler feels a little safer but the ones with wide front tracks take a lot of space and you might as well have a car if they need a full parking space.

I feel like an electric Vanderhall would be pretty nice if it had center seating, could add a motorcycle engine to the rear wheel for more go, but the electric drivetrain they put on is a bit porky.

You will be happy to know that I will not be there.

Rooster, will you join me in not being there?

It is at Ninkasi. Molly said the rental shop closed down for winter (even though it is not the middle of spring).

Our rally was supposed to be June 2nd but Joe Morgan wanted one in May so we picked May 13th. I don’t think it’s official but they said they would give a Q&A.
