Yah, were excited about the Whipsaw too. I saw an older article about the lj10.com guys riding it. Id like to get together with them for this. It'd be cool to wheel with some LJ s again.

Cool!

I'll be putting up an info and signup post for each of these events soon. We'll need to spread the word to get as many Suzuki enthusiasts as possible out there for some wheeling.

So what's the detailed plan for Whipsaw? I see the dates listed are Sept 1-5. Suppose I could only make it for September 1-2, does that mean I'll be wheeling alone for part of it?
