Finger Lakes Rally Ride Report

[SheRidesABeemer]

Crystal clear blue skies, temps in the 70’s, light traffic on back roads, what’s not to like about the 2007 Finger Lakes Rally? It was all good. About 1,100 of us enjoyed the weather, roads and wines of the region. The good people of the Finger Lakes BMW Club put on another fine rally, thank you! :clap

Here are some pictures from the long weekend. Full folder of pictures here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/srab/sets/72157601860541789).

Still some space in the quiet camping field when we arrived around 5:30 Friday night.

I strolled around as the sun was setting and admired the bikes.

We couldn’t resist buying a case of wine. We were packed heavy as we left Monday AM!

We reluctantly headed home Monday. What perfect weather!

It certainly was a great time. That is a very well run rally that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Kudos to Finger Lakes BMW!:clap

The weather was great, the food was great and I met Gail and Paul at the rally.

This has to be my favourite repeat BMW rally.

What could have been better (Except of course if my bike battery hadn't required charging at an inopportune time)?

Hopefully I can make that next year. I had planned to this year but something came up. It looked like a great time and I thought about it a lot over the weekend. Well at least Green Mountain is coming up.

Beautiful pictures! It looks like a good time and a great area to ride. I'm glad that you had good weather.

My daughter and I had a wonderful time in Watkins Glenn.

Good people, good food, and good riding.

The Fingers Lake BMW club did a great job. We're looking forward to next year.

Thanks for all those pictures.
I also missed it this year taking my son off to school.

Your pictures helped ease the pain :)

If you bruised that case of wine transporting it home, I could help you dispose of it....
Really, it'd be no trouble at all!

I'm sure there's a bottle in there with your name on it. :buds
