We have plenty of room. At our Spring Fling, we sat around a camp fire and had a BLAST, just telling lies.

Tony, sorry to hear you won't be making it. I hope it's nothing too serious with the transmission.

Time is flying and it won't be long now.

Tony, sorry you can't make it.

Willie, I'll restrain myself from eating the glass.

If there's anything that I can do to help any of you folks get ready for the trip, just let me know.

Be Good!

I have a friend that is going to try and make the cookout portion of the weekend. I have another friend that may try to make the whole weekend. I will know more next week.

I have not opened this up to any of my riding buddies to try and keep this NCFTE oriented. I'm not sure we want to be overrun by a bunch of hooligans on dirty bikes.

Depending on my work load next week will determine when I can head out. I may be able to take the whole day off Friday. We'll see.

This guy right here!!! LOL. I've done the no brake thing. Was coming up US 1 from Sanford in an 80 F150 (could have been an F100) and getting off on Wake Forest Rd\Falls of the Neuse Rd, and hit the exit ramp with no brakes, didn't realize it till I was on the ramp, and was in rush hour traffic. Thank fully it was a manual, and the light turned green, was able to coast it and pull into the walmart parking lot just a little ways up the road. So I'd rather not go through that again.

Oh and to top things off, I heard on the radio that Ford is considering a recall on the 15-16 F150 due to brake failure!
