The gods are not shining on me

Postby b_mason » Tue May 03, 2011 12:04 pm

I have gone thru every means I could imaging but the current economy issues and gas prices are going to prevent me from joining everyone this year. I need to finish working on the house, Jen needs a new car. Her current car is a Saab 9000 cse with way too many miles on it. Please have a beer for me.

So sorry to hear you will not be able to make it this year. I for one will raise a pint for you.
I am an individual. Just like everyone else.

We will miss you for sure, you are a big part of this event. It is all the nice folks, friends and riders here that make it worthwhile. You will definitely be missed! I will have a couple pints for you!

Thank you for the threats of kidnapping, the payoff offers and beer is always a good thing to offer. :snork: There is also this thing called "work" that is getting in the way. I will not promise anything but we will see how everything turns out. It might just be a rip and tear down and back.

325 miles, 6 hours. Leave after work Friday! or leave work a couple hours early on Friday. Better yet leave by noon friday and meet us at the BBQ in Putney.

If need be, I'll put on a side car and come and get you all. Paula might be bringing her "land ark", so you may have a place to stay.

Geeez Brett, That stinks. I am kindly offering the pillion on the Tiger. :nuts: I am staying in town this year at the Paradise, but I would gladly drop you off at the campsite on my way thru. This offer expires ten seconds after you read it. Seriously, hope things turn around and you can make it. If not Maine will still be represented....
