Depends on what time it is  :)) You all travel safe and I truly look forward to seeing everyone in Prescott Az. Very proud of the strides the COG SW group has made in just 1 year. Get ready for 2015!

Back to 61.... Duty (work) calls.
I had arranged to have new hoops installed on my '11 Connie while there - so the local dealer will have at least one set of PR3s available (with a 55 on the back).
Y'all have fun and be safe - and take the bus home from whiskey row.

Very sad day - only 3/4 of team Bruce.  How will we go on?  We will lift a glass from whiskey row!  Thanks for the idea Bruce!
 
Huge THANKS to Mark, Mike, Randy and all the others that make these events possible!!!  :great:

They are the essence of: Join For The Bike, Stay For The People!  :beerchug:

Mark - a favor to ask: can you give my (bought & paid-for) rally t-shirt to one of the Bruces for transporting back to Colorful Colorado?  Of course you will!  I knew it.  What a guy! (Can't believe Burkey.....)

May have to split the load between the rest of the Bruces. We have some decent rally swag bags this year. Miss Ya Bud. I'll also hoist a ......um........... I'll find something to hoist.
 
Really wish I could have made this one. I had too many obligations this weekend and had to finally opt out.  I am hopeful to be at the next SW event.  You all have a safe trip and lots of fun. :'(

Suhweet! I didn't see you shutterbugging. One thing I need to correct and it is My omission. My very heartfelt thanks goes out to the counterweight. She balances me. She refills my cocktails during the 3 hour Skype calls, loads the car and runs to the store, helps at registration and grabs me a pack of smokes, helps me tie up banners and post signs, takes care of the stupid dogs. Helps me organize and co ordinate. All with little or no fanfare. Thank you Honey.
 
Despite the usual Hartman disorganization, and it being just brutal getting there and back....  A GREAT EFF'IN RALLY!

My hat's off to the rally team.  :bravo_2: :beerchug:

Some great roads, old friends and new, lots of tall tales and even a mini wrench session. Well done.

I'd post some pics, butt....  I'm sittin' in a hotel room in Barstow with limited bandwidth. Uhh, yeah, that's it.  ;)

Tom - it looks like your ready to head to Africa.  :rotflmao:

Um...........Thanks? Glad you could make it out JP. Looking forward to those pics!
 
Had a great time in the Prescott area!! Everyone I met was enjoying themselves! What a great variety of roads and towns we visited.... Prescott is a very cool city with small town charm. Thank you to all that put the time in to pull off this fantastic Rally!

I do Jay, I do. And she'll do 10 hrs in the saddle rain or shine with minimum ear chewing.  :beerchug: :)

Great Pics Russ. Looks like Attila made some new friends. Thanks for posting them up Kap. We wish you could have made it too.  :great: :beerchug: :)
 
Some times I'm happy for rain! Another awesome job. But why at the end of the vid the ad popped up that my arrest record is now online? I already told them I didn't see the speed limit sign.  :beerchug: :)
