Is there a marching band competition at Lambeau?

The 17th might be hard for us to do but I think I could twist my arm and make myself go on any of the other weekends.

I don't know about the marching band. I was looking at the SUPERBOWL champs schedule and the September home dates fall on the 2nd and 16th. Maybe you can just walk up to Ford field and get a ticket, but you can not do that at Lambeau. There is a chance I will not get any tickets, therefore will be able to go any weekend on the ride.

You're so easy to get a rise out of!!! I hope you get your tickets.

So does this mean that October 15 is the winning date?? I am hoping to plan another October ride weekend so don't want to cause a conflict. Did the other states vote too?

Updates?
John, are these days official? I will mark them on our calendar (in PEN) Any idea what time we are going to meet up in LaCrosse? Our dealer and I have put together a little ride on Saturday, August 27 (9am @ Caswell Cycle in Mora, MN) if you get me a few more details I'll pass it on to the MN riders that come that day. --Paula

Quick update
Sept. 17 & Oct 15. Are official. MN & WI will meet in La Crosse (time & place tbd, waiting for Troy to get back from Sturgis). With The locations of the IA and IL riders, it looks like Davenport may be a good starting place for them. I will let those riders figure out their meeting point. now if they start further down the Mississippi that would move the midway point. So the ? Is where do the 2 groups meet?
Dubuque? Maybe take over a town like Guttenberg?
Suggestion?

I still like the SW part of Wisconsin, it's just so pretty in that Prairie Du Chien area, just my 2 cents! --Paula

I have off the weekend of 10/15 and trying to see if i can get a sitter lined up so Jim and I can go. What is the time frame we are looking at? leaving friday?
I need to make sure i have all my ducks in a row for school and dance.

Lovin' my Spyder!

Ok. I am glad to see this is a go. I thought the idea had died.
My first thought is if everyone is looking for breakfast time arrival, the best place would likely be the La Crosse Family Restaurant. Its only a mile from I-90, reasonable prices, lots of seating, etc, etc. There are other places but this is my first choice.
I do need to know about the time everyone is planning on arriving. Also need to know what time and where we will be meeting the IA/IL group. Plus an idea of how many are coming so reservations can be made, and so if we have a bit of extra time I can plan a few stops in the area for photos, etc.
Give me some ideas/numbers/etc and I will put together a plan.
This should be a very cool weekend.

Thanks Troy, we'll try and get you as much info as possible.
MN riders are coming down Friday. Looking for a nice cheap place to stay.
Paula can you get us some numbers on your group from MN? Thanks.
I haven't decided when I'll come over. Kids got soccer games. As far as meeting IA/IL, I'm thinking Dubuque and I'm still trying to find a cool place to meet/eat. I got 3tracs in charge of the IA/IL group. I will get in touch with him tomorrow to see what their time plans are. Really hoping to get something finalized before the end of the week.

Cool. Places to stay that are reasonable. No problem. I will get a list together and post it here tomorrow. I do have another question. Are we going to ride up and down the river over the weekend? I know that was the original talk but I kinda lost track of the planning. If anyone would like info first hand, has a suggestion, or whatever, please call me. If I dont answer, leave a message. 608-385-4509.

John,
I think my wife and I will head straight to Dubuque to meet up with everyone. We will be going up to LaCross for the night then return across WI to IL. I would like to ride with anyone heading back north out of Dubuque.
Is there a single list of who is making this ride? Time is getting short and I would like to make final plans.

The plans sound great John!
Butch and I are still planning on coming IF we get our spyder back in time. On our ride last weekend someone besides us finally heard the whining noise we've noticed on our left side. He said it was so loud that he thought it was his bike! So the spyder went back to Caswell's on Monday and we haven't heard anything yet. Sure hope it's something stupid and we are back on the road soon. --Paula

I hope you get your spyder back in time also. For personal reasons. I saw a pic from your Aug, 27th ride of your windshield. I've been looking at adding that little extra on top. Would love to take yours for a spin when we meet up if that would be ok. I know Jeff (JJW SpyderRider) who is going on our trip. was also looking at adding that.
Hope its nothing serious. Keep us posted.

FYI I bought the same little extra piece on top of the windshield that Butch and Paula have and are not using it, and for the right price could part ways with it.
I can't make the trip but if anyone is interested in that piece before the trip let me know.
