Hey, come ahead. This will be my third Falling Leaf and the only rally I've been to. I see you ride an RS. What color? I'll keep an eye out for you. Mine is a black RSL and I'll have my 11-yr-old son with me. Meet you there!

Silent "H", huh?
See you there, my friend.

**MANICMECHANIC** · 10-06-2011, 07:14 AM

Hey, Jim, you folks have fun. Don't do anything I wouldn't do 2 or 3 times. I'll see you next week.

I have not been back there since the bad luck weekend, when Rachael got sick.
That Sunday was the beginning of the end of our life. (as we knew it), and I admit it,
I am afraid.

I will certainly miss hanging with you all, but have fun, and it looks to be a great weekend.
Perhaps some year I will screw up the courage to go, and break the curse.

MarkM,

I'm riding a pearl silver RS. It has color-matched bags and a black Givi top case. See you tomorrow!

Subject: [LDRider] St. Louis traffic advisory: I-70 closed, yes
closed, this weekend 10/7-8-9
Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Not a time of year for lots of east/west motorcycle traffic, but with this
crowd you never know.

Anyhow, MODOT is closing I-70 near downtown STL (about mm249) Friday night
10/7 8pm until 5pm Sunday 10/9. Unfortunate travelers who blunder into this
mess will have a 2-mile, 12 controlled-intersection detour. They're
bringing down bridgework, heckuva mess.

Alternatives: probably best to take the 270 loop on the north side, or
255/270 loop on the south side. I-64 is usually a good alternate, however
the downtown terminus merges with I-70 to get across the Mississippi, so the
potential for backups / general cluster-x is high.

Forewarned is forearmed, and all that.

(where, otherwise, it's predicted to be a delightful fall weekend here for
riding or whatever...sunny, 70's)

Northbound I-270 on my R90, I saw two southbound beemers.. stuck in traffic.

Something came up, so I won't be camping. I'll be there Saturday, all day, though.
