Thor, Will you or Odin be coming up to ride. My E-Mail server crash over the weekend and I wanted to know if Jiggin Jack meant 8:30 central or eastern time to meet at Loretta. Also, Macm from Gwinn wanted to join in.

Hello Mac! 8/16/00 Just got back from Sturgis, South Dakota (World's Largest Motorcycle Rally). Wow, the crowd was unbelievable. Travelled 1,886 miles round trip. Sturgis and the Black Hills were fabulous. Unfortunately, I do not have any vacation time left at this time and cannot take off on Friday to make the trip and enjoy the ride. I wish that I could be there, but the weekend would be just a little too short. Have a great ride!!

Loretto Michigan is in the South central Upper Peninsula. Look at a map of the U.P. and then east of Iron Mountain about 12 miles

As far as I know I will be there. But it looks like i'm Comming by myself. That sounds like a good ride, What are the trails like mostly dust or is there some decent mud? Mac gave me his cell number, and I will bring my cell with me, So if everything works out I will see you guys there.
