Cindi & I are taking a ride over to Madison, Wisconsin next weekend just for the hell of it..Staying at the Grandstay Residential Suites..(if anybody has experience with this hotel, let us know please)..Figured that we'd make the trip, sightsee a little and go out to a nice resturant and maybe find a place with a band on Saturday night...If anybody cares to join us, they're more
than welcome...
:yes:

Have fun. Are you taking the high road or the low road? UP or Chicago?

I love riding the Badger. Is this going to be the last season for it or did they find a way around the coal ash issue?

Not sure when you'll be where, but the WIILY Ryders will be at Sportsman's Landing for lunch for our monthly meeting if you're in the area. We have between 20 and 40 show up typically depending on the weather and season.

Last I heard they were still fighting the issue...Would be a shame to lose the Badger..

:dontknow: No SS Badger :( After we got back from Spyderfest my wife suggested that we spend a week riding around the lake and we planed on coming home on the Badger to miss Chicago. I hope they find a way to keep it running.

There are a few rides going on that weekend.

(1) WISOAR is meeting at Robs dealership in Johnson creek on May 19th at 11am, (I-94 and highway 26) about 45miles east of Madison. After lunch we will ride the very scenic Kettle Moraine north to Hartford, then back to Robs.

(2) Freedom ride: I am not going on this ride because I am going on the other ride, but you can visit the web site: www.operationcelebratefreedom.org/events/freedom-ride/.
there is a starting point in Madison for this ride.

There will be more Spyder riders on the first ride.

:opps: Oops, there I go again with my Internet skills.

The web site is: www.wisoar.shutterfly.com (http://www.wisoar.shutterfly.com)

I hope that clears up any concussion about Spyders and gliders.

No reprieve in sight. The EPA has dug in their heels. Maybe we need to write our congressmen. Oops, forget that, they can't take care of the business they have now. Making the Badger shut down is like shooting the last dinosaur...it is reprehensible!
