Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!
A Nebraska man was reunited Wednesday with his now-vintage motorcycle stolen nearly 50 years earlier.
Donald DeVault, 73, laid eyes on his 1953 Triumph Tiger 100 for the first time in 46 years at a trucking company near the airport in Omaha.
His first reaction? To hug the man who brought the bike back to him. His next move was — naturally — to take the motorcycle for a spin in the parking lot.
DeVault learned two weeks ago that California authorities had recovered his motorcycle at the Port of Los Angeles. The bike was about to be shipped to Japan when agents checking the vehicle identification number discovered it had been reported stolen in February 1967.
DeVault had had the bike for only a year or two when it was taken from his fenced backyard.
The motorcycle was valued at $300 in 1967. Today, it's worth about $9,000.
