Laundry done? Check!
Pre-trip haircut? Check!
Clothes laid out for packing? Check!
Bike fuelled? Check!
Passport and champagne flutes at hand? Check!
Water bottles chilling? Check!
Guess all I have to do is pack tonight. Actually, that means watching my wife pack. She'll be flying into Denver, so her stuff is going on the bike too. I'll be ready for a 5:00 a.m. lift-off tomorrow (Friday).
Day 1 (Friday): Wadsworth, OH;
Day 2 (Saturday): Saint Charles, MO;
Day 3 (Sunday): Hays, KS;
Day 4 (Monday): Salida.

Below is a cut & paste from a previous post.
*******************************************
We've had some inquiries about the availability of a shuttle service to transport those who wish to imbibe but not have to rely on their own two wheels to get to and from the bars.
I'm happy to report that Salida has such a service - Toasted Taxi (719-221-2783) - that charges $10 per load (NOT per person), per trip. The Gateway Inn will have their contact info readily available.
Another bar/restaurant that offers a shuttle is Wallbanger's but it's possible that they won't be inclined to drive us to their competition. Besides, Wallbanger's is but a few minutes walk from The Gateway so you'd have to be pretty stinkin' drunk to need their shuttle.
I'll pass along more info as I hear about it. I'm also positive that some other members will be trailering or driving out to the rally. I suggest you suck up, er, I mean make friends with them and maybe they'll haul your toasted tail(s) around.
Regards,
Randy

So... where is Whipville gonna be on Tuesday? Hate to go to the wrong place? Could not find your previous post... must be trying to hide from the rest of us...
