Re: BMW Veteran Club Bench Mark Works Rally

I wasn't planning on going untill I heard the rumor that KPaul was boycotting Strugis. VWW

 

[Buzglyd]

I've been to a BMW rally and they are off the hook!

For anyone within striking distance, this is one NOT to miss. Very, very cool vintage iron lovingly restored...and ridable. This is NOT a trailer queen crowd.



Mississippi is a wonderful place to visit this time of year. What a great time to ride the Natchez Trace!

Re: BMW Veteran Club Bench Mark Works Rally

LOL Funny. Glad to hear from you. I am sure this is just a bunch of GPTB sitting around talking about their volvos.

An Airhead rally would probably be more fun than an "new beemer" rally

There'd be bikes that actually live up to the "legendary" moniker

Re: Bengt Phorks

I remember the great Swedish racer Bengt Phorks.........Wasn't he a teammate of Sven Gharm and a friend of Ricks?

Holy cow, could this be further from Seattle?



Although it is a great excuse to take ten days off from the Seattle Rain Festival which encompasses the entire months of March and April and sometimes creeps into May.

 

[seruzawa]

And then sometimes creeps into June.... July... August....September......

Ditto that, Sarnali. I've bounced off my LAST new beemer rally years ago. Not bad folks...just not "my" folks. Airhead rallys are most certainly something quite different.

Re: Bengt Phorks

Yes, Rondo Talbot too. BTW, I'm going to the start of the Baja 1000 with Rick next Wednesday, should be real cool. Using my cherry '70 CL350 as the photo mule. Hope I don't centerpuch a taco cart or something, end up in the Ensenada hotel (jail). Have to go easy on that Meskin' beer. Burp.

Un mas por favor...

 

[nokneedragin]

You mean it actually stops raining in the seatle area?

I mean other than to snow or sleet.

 

[sarnali]

One of the funnest bikes I've had was my '79 R100RT, I'd always meet some "interesting "people when I was on that.

Going back two years ago and buying an '02 R1150RT was a real eye-opener, as you say, not bad, but not my type. I was amazed at what the bike had "progressed" into. Nice but not what I was looking for.

 

[sarnali]

Why, it stopped raining for a few hours just the other day...........

Re: Dena el tanko por fay-vor

[bigjames]

Vech is damn good people! The BMW Riders Association is proudly listing this rally (I do their rally map and on of the board trustees to boot) and has an open invitation to the Georgia Sidecar Rally (I'm also pres of that club)! If you are anywhere near the rally, go there!

Don't bet on Volvo talk from this gropup Kpaul!

There loyalty to long obsolete product rivals the HD bretheren! And most of them ride the old $hit to the rallies!

 

[bigjames]

Get thee to an RA rally....

they might be more like the people you might like to hang oout with, in the camground anyway....
