Wilsons Sandbox

I once got myself (180#+ gear), a Homelite chainsaw, wood splitting maul, 2 gallons of oil & gas, 100 ft. of rope, lunch + the weight of 3 GiVi boxes on my 02' DL1000. Not 500 pounds. But, quite a load and it handled things just fine. -eddie -----Original Message-----

Damn that looks like fun. Does anyone know if there is a phone number to call to get in on it? Andrew As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we all must be most aware of change in the air however slight lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness. William O.

I see that both this ride and also the Bucky Badger DS ride the following weekend are full. I would like to connect with some KLR riders from the forum if possible.

It also looks like it might be cold and damp, judging from the weather forecast. -Tom No virus found in this incoming message.

Hi Andrew, Sorry to say, registration was closed after the max number of riders signed up. If you want to stay on top of rides in the Wisconsin area you can always find an up to date list here: http://www.advrider.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4029478&postcount=1 Great quote in your sig, by the way.

Andrew, If you just show up at one of these "fully subscribed" events, you can ride along. You may not get the party favors, the dinner, or the route sheet, but a guy with your charm and persuasive abilities can surely find someone to tag along with, probably someone you know.
