You are a senior member rodger. I to am a middle aged fart w/ oldwing and also wanting to do a naked oldwing.
Dont think I will make it sunday unless its a last minute thing. Those dang biscuits & gravy are speaking to me though.
But if I eat them they may speak from me. Last edited on Fri Apr 18th, 2008 09:53 pm by BIG D

Can anyone tell me about the average age of the people going on these rides.
I would be interested but my SO has it in her mind that everyone will be older and we will not fit in very well. I am 44 and she is just slightly younger ( if I said I wouldnt get to eat or sleep or anything else for quite a while).

Well snickers, I'm 44, my wife is 43 and my daughter is 11.
My wife will probably kill me for saying her age ..................
I'll let everyone else say their age..........but we have people from 30'ish to mid 50's...........And I'm not telling which ones are older or younger in this range!!!

| Sure wish I could make the rides this coming Sunday and on the 10th of May. Unfortunately, both bikes are down right now, one for voltage regulator (both may be bad), and the other is down for fuel delivery problems. On the 10th of May I'll be getting ready for finals the following week, 6 of them! I'll sure be watching for more rides though.

I will be 41 this Thursday (the 24th) and my bike is a 1984 Aspencade. If Candace comes along with me, she is 22.
So there you have it, there is quite an age range in our group so I think you'll fit in. Besides we don't discriminate........ well, not too much anyway.........

Ok, here's the plan.
We will be meeting in the K-Mart parking lot at 47th Street South and Broadway in the morning for our ride to Ferdonia. We will leave the parking lot at 7 a.m. sharp.
If there is anyone that wants to ride with us, please feel free to join us. If you are between Wichita and Ferdonia, feel free to join in along the way.
rcmatt007, better bring your appetite.

Hey Jeff! Hope you are doing well...........I couldn't make the B&G's either but let's get together soon!
Here is the ride report that I got from this morning for those who couldn't make it (like me).
I heard Patch had trouble this morning on the ride and had to turn around 
Heard that Lucille made the trip and dang it, I didn't meet Michael or Diane AGAIN!!!
I also heard that Rodger didn't get through the complete order of B&G's, but I also heard that he didn't have a lot left either! See what I mean about them skinny guys!!
whbondjr and bill's girl had a good trip and are back in Wichita, I think they have put more miles on their new 1800 (new to them) than they ever did on their pristene 1500! (Just Kidding Bill! It's great to have you riding with us)
I even heard there was a Harley with them????
The Kansas wind was calm like usual.........
Pictures Dang It!!!   I want to see the before and after shots!!!
I'm glad everyone who went (or attempted to go....Sorry Patch) had a great time!
Hey Patch, I know where their is a very nice 1500 for sale........... and you don't have to go far to get it! Seriously, let me know if you need help fixing the problem on your wing.
Happy Birthday early as I won't get back to Kansas until noon on next Saturday. 
I am sorry I missed the trip especially as I'm sitting here printing my boarding passes for Washington, DC and leaving at "OMG, it's early" flight first thing in the morning.
Talk to you fine folks later while I'm on the road!!

| Got it fixed this afternoon and went out for about 50 miles. It ended up being a blown fuse that powers the accesory terminal. This is where I have the hot wire that runs to the alternator exciter terminal plugged into. I just had to replace the fuse and I was back going.

Sorry to hear that Rodger couldn't clean his plate.
That is no normal order of B&G.
Candace still claims that she can put down a full order. I can't wait to see her try.
Of course, she may change her mind when she sees these photos.
