Marcarl Posted February 17, 2015 Share #76 Posted February 17, 2015 Just about a week ago me and Greta got an email from IcelandAir with a very attractive offer for a Iceland/JFK round trip. Well I looked at my wife and said. Wow,,if we don´t take this deal we are gonna loose a lot of money !!!!!!!!!! Short version - We bought the tickets and we are coming for Maintenance Day. I was there on my first USA motorcycle trip in 2009, but have not been able to attend again. This will be Greta´s first Freebirds Maintenance Day even though we did stop by Don´s and Eileen´s place in 2011. Man, we are counting the days !!!! Looking forward to meet you all. And rest assure - The traditional Black Death will be in the luggage as before. Be safe. Jonas and Greta Just need to got to know,,,, forget about your Black Death,, that stuff can kill ya,,,,,, what is important though,,,, does she hug????I mean Greta,,, well does she????

bongobobny Posted February 17, 2015 Share #77 Posted February 17, 2015 If you are bringing flags, my screen door to the kitchen needs an Iceland flag as soon as you cross the threshold...l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowpuc Posted February 17, 2015 Share #78 Posted February 17, 2015 I know Jonas, how about just having one of those rubber stamps made, you know what I am talking about,, the kind you put in ink and than go around stamping stuff.. That way, you can just stamp all of us and our bikes and Bobs door!! Tell ya one thing,, a guy could have a lot of fun with one of those at Dons!! Watching our International friends try to cross back into their home countries with a tattooish ink stamp that said "I AQUIRED BLACK DEATH" stamped on their foreheads would be a HOOT!!

Better not,, or I'll have to tell the truth.

cowpuc Posted February 18, 2015 Share #83 Posted February 18, 2015 Doesn't Ohio bike week start the same weekend in Sandusky? Sounds like an extended trip may be in order. Thats a good question Rick, if it does I wonder how far from Don's Sandusky is. Definitely have to check that out!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure nuff,, Ohio Bike Week starts on the 29th at the Harley Shop in Sandusky.... Tweeks and I gotta ride right pass that place, probably oughta leave a day or so early cause when that beat up old Yam smells HD exhaust in the air she tends to get side tracked.. I wonder if any of the other 300 plus VR members that will be showing up for Dons MD will be stopping in there on the way thru? THANK YOU for pointing that out Sir Haywood!!

cowpuc Posted February 18, 2015 Share #86 Posted February 18, 2015 50 miles at most. What da heck,, barely a bump in the road,, why I bet Yammer Dan and Skid on their 2nd Gens could do that trip in less than 4 hours!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Haywood Posted February 18, 2015 Share #87 Posted February 18, 2015 Actually from freeburds to the Harley dealer is 34 miles, Think I will go over on Sunday.

Freebird Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share #91 Posted February 19, 2015 It's fine if you just show up. I like to get a close estimate of how many are coming but there are always a few that don't make it and a few that end up there after not thinking they could so it pretty much evens out.

Eddie Posted February 19, 2015 Share #92 Posted February 19, 2015 Ive gone over to Ohio bike week a couple times from Don's over the years. If it's going this same weekend again we will probably head over there again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
