Got (several) home-brews reserved just for you.

Bribery!

Jealousy. You could start home-brewing. It's not hard; even Tom Sills does a very credible job at it.

I take the easy route and buy from a local micro brewery! there's a nice one about a mile from the house.

They should provide something called a "GROWLER." Not as convenient as the KEGERATOR that I have but ... .

There's a Growler bar near us. You walk in and there's a stand up bar, not to drink-that's not allowed, but to lean on while they fill your growler from the myriad of taps along the wall behind the bar. Pretty cool.

Growler bars are nice. There's one near me, but a growler holds about 1 gallon; a Kegerator holds 5 gallons or more. You be the judge.

And a keezer holds 2-3 of them 5-gallon containers. Ain't judging, of course...

I'll vouch for Mr Sills knowing his way around brewing.

We're spending quite a bit of bandwidth on the nectar of the gods, a perfectly legal beverage BTW, when do ya s'pose the leadership is gonna crack down on us?

I've heard it said that "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."

Volcantour is just one of the disciples....

hmm is there going to be a who rode the furthest to get there gig, if so I may challenge some other FL riders and come up reppin' SC

Ranger Jim · « **Reply #40 on:** February 15, 2017, 01:15:58 pm »

We will definitely recognize those who rode the furthest as well as those who came to support the respective states. It's possible we'll even have some door prizes now that we have an Area Director to coordinate funding through. Seems like the last time SC hosted the event we had several from FL and someone from either OH or IL.

Rode the farthest or just live farther away?

I plan on heading to Texas Big Bend country, come back through Cliff's and then on to the Con-Clave. With maybe even a dip into Mexico.

It should be about 5000 +/- when I get to Charlotte area, probably +.

Go Versys Go!

I think not. Of course that is a totally unbiased view.

Besides, I don't consider free beer to be bribery.

I'm #6. I may have to sneak back into GA though....

Ranger Jim · « **Reply #47 on:** February 15, 2017, 11:57:35 pm »

The distance for the longest rider will be determined from their home (as listed in the Directory) using the shortest route available. That's the same way we do it at rallies.
