Here it is.........KANWINGS 1 (Inaugural and 1st Official Ride  )
This is your official invitation to come and ride with us. If you can't make the southern meeting point or want to join up on the way, The Southern riders will be coming from Wichita area up the Kansas Turnpike (I-35 North) so join in along the way or you can meet us in Valley Falls, KS at 11:30 am Sunday, May 18th Your choice!!
The map please.....drum roll...........(Thank you johnmac!) 
Attached Image (viewed 26 times):
We will have riders from the North and South meeting up for this run.
We will be meeting at Tybme's house for pulled pork and hamburgers (see additional map for directions) in Valley Falls, KS at 11:30 am. 
The Southern Riders will meet at Presto Gas Station located at the intersection of Andover Road/Kellogg (US 54) in Andover, KS at 8:00 am. The Southern Riders will travel approx. 150 miles NE on the Kansas Turnpike to the Log Cabin Gas Station in Meriden to meet up with Popeye and then on to Tybme's humble abode for some great times and a wonderful ride. 
I'm not big into rules and formality just having good, clean, safe fun but I want to have some guidelines with as many wings that said they are coming and a lot of us haven't rode together before so the goal is to be a fun, safe but uneventful ride..........
Once we are all together in Valley Falls, KS................
johnmac, I would like for you to lead this ride because this is really in your neck of the woods, you know the area, and planned the route. (CB equipped as well) 
For safety reasons, we need to have all the bikes together but ride in a staggered pattern and give each other a bike length or two for the unexpected. We don't want some wings trading paint, but also not strung out for miles and miles.  We also don't want Barney and his one bullet chasing us either so please try to maintain speed limits if at all possible. My opinion here is not to do this ride the fastest.......take time to enjoy the scenery and smell the roses!!
As George Bush has said.."Leave no child (bike) behind" therefore Popeye, I would like for you to bring up the rear of the pack. You also have knowledge of the area and you are also CB equipped for communication with johnmac.
The rest of us (especially me) will ride in the middle because we do not know the area and it would be like the blind leading the blind but I understand that this will be a bee-uti-full ride!!
I recommend everyone top off before the ride begins.....especially the Southern Riders but you are big boys and girls......you can handle your own fuel management!! I believe you've done that before!!!  I understand from Ty that there is a perfect gas station in Valley Falls for fuel.
Flyone will be leading the Southern Riders from Andover to Meriden, then Popeye will lead to Tybme's.
OK, with all that said.....the organizer's hat just came off. I can't wait for this weekend.  
This official message has been brought to you by Joe's Crab Shack...........
Remember, "Diamonds are forever, but women never forget crabs!" 
Dont' forget to bring your cameras!! I will also post a new thread to announce the ride for anybody else who happens to miss the offical message on the Kansas ride thread with all of our smack talking!
See everyone Sunday!!!!

Weather forecast [NOAA] up here and for Wichita is now up to 40% chance T-storms on Saturday. Saturday night 30% T-storms. 
Sunday the 11th says 0% rain. [Mother's Day] 
Both days with a high of 69*
It's Thursday afternoon. A decision is needed real soon or we risk a bust.

Sunday afternoon after 3:00 pm is already taken. (It's Mother's Day).
If we do it on Sunday, I may have to wave bye to everyone at the south edge of St. Joe, depending on the time.

Let's keep it where it is....................
I think if the weather pattern continues, the T-Storms have been happening after dark.
I think the only ones that are going to be possibly affected would be Patch and I trying to get back to Wichita. If we start running into T-Storms, we will just get a hotel room and go home early Sunday morning.
I'm like johnmac, if I'm not home for Mother's Day, I may have to sleep with one eye open!

Hey Bill,
I call you back tomorrow to let you knowfor sure but I think I'll plan on meeting you all at the Emporia rest stop. I took a look at the map and that will work for me. If I remember correctly that is a planned pit stop for the southern riders.
Can you figure when you all will be in that area so I can plan my escape from here?
Anyone want to meet me there to escort our southern brothers(and sisters) around Topeka and into Meriden? If not I hope we'll see you in Meriden at 11:30.
Ty

I agree. Sunday would be bad for me also and I don't mind getting a little wet!
