    Thanks for the quick response. I'll check the schedule and give as many open dates as possible. To those who are on the edge of riding or not. I don't want this to be a heavy heart event but a fun celebration of Bill's and our passion for riding. He wouldn't have it anyother way but that of enjoying the beauty of the ride and the fellowship.
    Thanks,

    Okay, with respect to labor day,

    The Aviation Museum is open on Monday 9/7 but the Harley Museum/Restaurant is not.

    However, both are open Saturday 9/5.

    I'll check with my sweety about arrangments for my "little man" regarding 9/5 and if all is clear I'll be there. It is pretty big weekend of fun and games for the kids and I think she is scheduled to work, so I'll update you as soon as I know something.

    And thanks guys for pulling this back together.

    Dave,

    If you can't be there 9/5 propose some dates that do work for you.

    hey folks, my wife is the bomb!!! Momma says 9/5 is fine. I'll cruise into town friday, ride saturday and blow out sunday after church. I don't know my way around too well so if I can arrange to meet someone from raleigh close to Bills that would be great.

    Thanks,

    All right,

    I've quoted Bill's original plan below. Except for the dates I would recommend we stick to what he had planned.

    So we are set for the Saturday 9/5 unless we have a rainout (look here for updates on weather as we get closer). Dave, I can meet you at or near Bill's house. It's a good 30 minutes from my house to the IHOP so I would suggest meeting you at 0645 to allow plenty of time.

    I only have a sketchy head count so far of (anyone bringing guest?),

    There were quite a few more in the original ride. This will not be a downer ride. This is meant to be a celebratin of Bill's life by participating in something he loved. Let's Ride!


    I think the week of the ride I'll use Bill's original thought of getting you to PM me so we can exchange cell numbers, confirm participation and be certain we don't leave anyone.

    I'll be there, 1 with me. I am looking foward to finishing what Bill had planned for us all to do. I know He will be smiling down on us.

    Roger and Dave-I think it would be easier for me to meet ya'll at Bills house since I have been there a few times, if it is ok with you guys. My stepdad has never been to his house but he will be tagging along with me. I hope it is a beutiful day.

    Here's the head count so far for the Aviation Museum Ride.

    Artie(RT) + 1
    Dave
    mlew + 4
    xulf13 +1
    Jared D +1
    CNCguy

    That totals to 13. The long range forecast for Friday says cloudy and warm...not too bad. I will keep my eye on it.

    Artie(RT)+1, Dave, Jared+1 to meet at 0645 at Bills or close by. Dave, do think Sandra will mind if we meet at Bill's? Maybe you should check first? Please advise.

    Otherwise the rally point is 0730 at the IHOP for breakfast and plan to leave at ~0830.

    knowing Sandra she would say yes. However, I think really it would be difficult. so perhaps we can meet at the church (close and we all know the location)

    To Dave,

    Good idea...we meet at Wakeminster Church...0645. Then on to the IHOP.

    To Yamasarus

    Yes...we should arrive from Raleigh at the Aviation Museum by 10:00 am.

    I will PM you with my cell phone number

    That's a good call. I rather ride from the church to the Ihop with you guys. Some, might rather meet at the IHOP due to their location. But for me, the church is only 20 miles south from my house. I plan on bringing a camera if that ok with you guys. I think from there we can go down on creedmoor road all the way to 540 onto apex right to the IHOP.
