Heyyyyyy,, we REALLY are brothers @Carbon_One Larry = matching Super Hawks!!! Remember the forward kick starter,, some people thought they were goofy but I really liked mine!!! Still a little ticked cause Dad let you have a Beezer Spitfire and I never got to own one,,, that puppy is gorgeous!! :thumbsup:

Hopefully we are able to put together at least one weekender this year Randy,, I know it would increase our attendance by 100% of outings like last years Prudenville Rally (I sent out invitations to over 1000 people and only Billmack and Drews showed up - doing the math here, I know I could count on both you and Raggy if we did a weekender = 2 at Prudenville + you 2 weekend onlys = 4 which is a 100% increase :lightbulb::lightbulb::lightbulb: What town do you work in Rand???? Maybe I could set you up, I mean set up a Greet - Meet and Eat Meat there so you could join us on your lunch break:big-grin-emoticon::big-grin-emoticon:

No dates have been discovered yet Deej, this whole thread was basically just another screwballish underhanded attempt at a little.. I am currently waiting for my staff to email me back to see if they are all still in for another season of Hot Doggin it for me. Usually I know by May what the official available dates are when they are available and we work from there - lots going on behind the scenes here that only the folks who have attended a "Pucs Greet - Meet and Eat Meat" would fully understand - a HUGE reward just for showing up.. Now,,, DONT MISREAD THAT IN THE SLIGHTEST,, these Eat Meats are OPEN to all and we would LOVE for you to be able to make one and find out first hand what in the wild wild world of grilled ground and stuffed meat is going on up here:178: :lightbulb::lightbulb: Give me an idea of what month you may be off and I will do what I can to schedule something JUST FOR YOU DEEJ!!! Hopefully that month falls between June and September as we do live right in the same flight zone as FlyinFool and his White Wash Machine those Hot Dogs seem to loose their edge when trying to gobble em with frozen fingers:big-grin-emoticon:

Specially if all had Beans and Hot Dogs for dinner bro Sorry about breaking your record for ending the most posts DanL but I just couldnt let this one slide!!

Thanks Mech! I had not heard anything about the push by Yamaha to drop the Star line,, gonna do some quick research here and see if I am missed another great conversation.. Cant help but wonder if reuniting the names back under one roof (back to Yamaha) has something to do with what is taking em so long to give us another Venture.. Maybe some kind of restructuring of something...

:sign Rock On: Sister!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbsup: Here's hoping it works PERFECT for you Nance!!! THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE!

NICE!!!! :clap2::dancefool:

Thanks Gary for being there for him .. Our thoughts and prayers are with your buddy - hopefully he heals quickly, fully and indeed - that they are able to catch the scum ball who ran into him!! Prayers Up and Blessings Down! Puc

Ok,, here's the deal as far as requirements for attending,,,,, ,,,,,,, there aren't any ,, take that back,, an empty tummy and a craving for good Hot Dogs would probably help! As far as a Tent and all that Cha, last year we had a couple of Krazy Kanuck's come and spend a night with us to attend one of our Hot Dog Rallies - worked out GREAT too (as far as I know we are still friends).. They chose to leave their camping gear at home and give our spare bedrooms a shot.. We do have plenty of camping room in the yard though in case we run across folks who are skitterish about sleeping within the same time zone as I.. We also have an "over spill" area a couple minutes from our home (Muskegon State Park) which is also located on the beginning of Michigans BEST touring roads headed North along the Lake Michigan shoreline. From here to "The Bridge" (Mackinaw) is simply the best Michigan Motorcycle Touring possible.. ALL OF THIS IS AVAILABLE TO YOU - BRING YOUR DAD TOO IF YOU WANT - OR A BUDDY - WE GOT LOTS OF ROOM!! Now,, "that all said" - and the reason why I "said all that" is, if a person like yourself wanted to come to Michigan for one of our "Greet, Meet and Eat Meats" (which are officially only a one day lunch outing) that same person could watch for a U.P. of Michigan Rally, spend a night here in Muskegon us - then tour North to the U.P. for the Rally with the bikes all loaded up, spend a night swatting Michigan skeeters with the rest of us and get a Michigan tour in while your here.. If I were coming from Braska and seriously thinking of making the trip, I would do just that and then continue around the U.P. of Michigan, into the top of Wisconsin on my way back to work - LOTS OF GREAT TOURING RIGHT THERE IN THAT SUGGESTION..

Wayyyy cool - guy did an excellent job on that sweetheart, THAT is for sure!! :clap2::clap2: Hey Mech,, you by any chance happen to read the entirety of that thread over there on Delphi? VERY INTERESTING READ all about "Star" motorcycles being no more.. Sounds like its all going back to Yamaha.. Definitely a subject worthy of a discussion here on VR (IMHO).. Being your thread and a link you provided (THANK YOU MY FRIEND), would you mind starting another thread about that subject or are you good with us this one? All in all Mechster,,, EXCELLENT post - THANK YOU!!

Oh,, by the way,, how do you like those pipes? Bet she sings a REAL pretty tune!!

:dancefool::dancefool::sign Rock On::sign Rock On: She's a beauty my brother,,, ROCK N ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbsup: I LOVE the Blonde MK1 Venture Royales,, just gorgeous... Strange ain't it,,, after all these years and after all the major manufactures have done everything they can do to improve - add bling - reconfigure and on and on,, I still get all :178: and every time I am blessed enough to get to see one of early Blondes in all their glory.. Thanks for the pics Zzz,, made my day!!

INDEED,, GOOD ON YA PAUL!!!

I know EXACTLY how ya feel Rand! When Tip and I visited the Hand Surgeon last week (was one of those 2 degree windchill days) and he told me he would fit me in this week to do my right hand that I could almost sense warm weather coming. Was one of Murphy's Law inspirational moments,, you know what I am talking about.. Tip says "stop being so pessimistic",, to which I replied "that aint pessimism sweetheart - it's a fact of life, besides, I am PROUD to be able to do that for the younger generation who actually have the energy to get out and enjoy it"..

JUST BEAUTIFUL ECKSTER:happy65::happy65:!! Never did well back in High School Art Class but I gotta hunch that if they would have been teaching Auto Art I would have been WAYYYYYYY more engaged!! Beautiful!! THANK YOU for sharing!!

This things dieing again,, back to showing off...

Yep,,, pucker up for a lip smackin, yummy good all Beef 1/4 pound - cooked to perfection Puc Puppy Come on out Sailor,,, may be able to set up with enough of those Puc Puppies to get ya back to B.C. if ya do!! Ah HAH,, one of the Faithful Two (having made all of our Greet, Meet and Eat Meat to date) has spoken!! I KNEW you would Drews,,, you, @billmack and I are Hot Dog Addicts aren't we brother!!!:cool10::cool10: :think:Aint heard from brother Bill for a while,, hope everything is well with him and Pam.. Know what would be a RIOT Drews,, talk my staff into stuffin us a couple dozen of those Dogs, find us a perfect spot to camp , on the Multi million acre chunk of land that we own up there (State/Federal Land), toss up a quick White Birch fire, snap off a couple of Sassy Frass twigs to use for Doggy sticks and see if we can't come up with a whole new flavor to add to those rascals:big-grin-emoticon: Be GREAT if we could draw in a good 50/50 mix of Canadian/US attenders - them Canadians that made it out last year were a LOT of fun,,, so were the Michiganders - what a BLAST!!

:happy65: Beej!!! Big difference between my buddy Al and I though is he does his showing off in front of a green screen, I prefer to do mine using a more natural setting

Good post:thumbsup: Right there with ya Randy,, took the words right out of my mouth!! My apology stands to anyone of our family that I may have offended therein too brother.. :lightbulb:Lets all make up and get together for a Hot Dog!!

Awe,,, YOU are more than welcome my friend:thumbsup:. I assure you - those GREAT memories and good times go both ways! Here's to looking forward to another super Doglicious summer of rounding em up and chowing em down Drews:beer: You done forgot about the bestest option of all Fool,, a trip across the U.P. of Michigan on a MOTORCYCLE:guitarist 2:!!:cool10::cool10: Speaking of which, been thinking very seriously of setting one up in the U.P. in an effort to get closer to the U.S./Canadian border and be more centrally located in the Northern Hemisphere - sort of an effort to go more International... @mirider had some GREAT suggestions concerning this matter,, one of them involved mixing up our Hot Dog intake with some of those U.P. Pasties (not provided by my staff though),, could get really interesting!! If it all fly's like last year Cha, your work schedule is PERFECT!! Mid week opportunities should be plentiful this year, I am hoping to have several of the outings throughout the 2016 ride season and 99 percent of them will be weekday events (cant afford to pay the overtime).. Come out of the land where Corn grows and into the land where Hot Dogs bloom my friend - you'll never regret it:happy34:

Never,, NO NEVER nod out for your afternoon nappies while watching Arachnophobia Carl...

Michigan's not that far from Arizona David

Actually Cha they have been weekday events, my staff people really like to have their weekends off (and I am not much for paying over-time).. I did catch a fair amount of smack talk about that last year though,, people like @ragtop69gs (Raggy) kept beatin me up cause I didn't have one for the working people (I still question Raggy's real love for Hot Dogs though cause there were others who attended that were working people) so, if things go well and it all fly's again this year we may do a weekend dogger.. Will know more as we get closer to May..

WOW ZZZZZ WOW WOW WOW ,,, she's a DANDY Sarn!!!:clap2::dancefool::dancefool:GREAT FIND!! Comments/ideas and tips? Yea I got some thoughts for ya,, check the tires and light the fires, ride that puppy till the wheels fall off Shake er down, typical stuff - front fork springs, brake pads and calipers for sticken, battery condition, oils changed, lube the cables and splines and hit the road!!!! CONGRATS Sarna!!

Hokey Spamokey,,, almost missed this pic and THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A REAL DISASTER!!!! A STAR IS BORN!
