eddd Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I'm really going to try and make it this time. If anyone's route takes them near St. Louis or Chicago and you want company, feel free to yell at me. No excuses. You will be there. And Mike better be coming too. Link to comment
Twisties Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Will most folks get there on Thursday and leave Sunday? Ed, I'm 90% sure I'll be able to make it. Ive been wanting to make this event for a few years now. You guys take it easy on noobs, right? That first part is probably correct. Wednesday is certainly not too early. Leaving Monday also doesn't hurt. But as you say, there is usually a pretty good crowd by Thursday, and Sunday night is looking a bit thin. As for the second part, 2009 is done gone. All bets are off. Link to comment
dhanson Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 They take it pretty easy, I had to throttle the Tiger way down. Dirt bike, not so much. Link to comment
Ron_B Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 You guys take it easy on noobs, right? Of course. The hazing initiation doesn't hurt anywhere near what it used to, it's really not that expensive and most of us won't remember the really silly stuff the next day. (and if it gets a little out of hand, bail money isn't a problem.) Link to comment

Matts_12GS Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 So.... What's this Torrey thing you speak of? I about lost an extremity last night from some arm twisting I got for making the trip this spring... Link to comment

lvnvbiker Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I'm planning on being there, but school and funds may interfere with it. From the way it appears to be shaping up so far if I miss this one I'll be kicking my own arse for years to come so the old mind is in overdrive working on a way to show up. Camping out and living on Cup O Noodles for the week end may be part of the plan... Link to comment
drswift Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I just realized that I missed both Torrey's last year. I definitely plan on coming and even talked the missus into riding along! (It will probably take us two days to get there.) Link to comment

KMG_365 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Yep .. it just officially got interesting.... WooooHoooooo!!!!!! I just finished being forced at work for five days straight (120 hours)!!! The only advantage to this is that now I have accumulated some additional leave time on the books . . . . I just checked the calendar and there's no mandatory training on the one day (Friday) that I need to get covered for Leslie and I to make it! We might have the grandbaby in tow (and be in the cage as a result), but we'd still love to show her the beautiful Utah desert country and introduce her to all our awesome friends! Besides, then years from now when she's got her own bike she can say that she's been going to Torrey since she was only two years old! Bring it!!!!! Link to comment

I'll be there too, although double-caging it on 6 wheels instead of 2. I'm doing a 2+ week tour of Utah NPs in my truck with new travel trailer in tow.
