    One comment I heard this year was to Stop the photo opp on Saturday, on the BRP.... It interfered with the self guided rides....

    I absolutely loved the photos on the BRP. If someone would rather do a self-guided ride, what's stopping them?

    That picture is COOL. Especially the precision of the lineup.

    I agree with GaTeach. I did Big Dawg and Cool Hand Guided rides most of the days but wouldn't have missed the Photo's on the BRP for the world. Its tradition......................Dickie

    Tony (Phantom) spoke of moving the Rally to the Ozarks next year. My opinion and you know what they say about opinions, is to keep it right where it is in Franklin NC.(although a pool would be nice). If you move to the Ozarks it requires more time off and greater expenditure. I suspect less participation from the South. I have to tell you I look forward to the Franklin NC.Rally Every year and would hate to see it go. I'm sure many others feel the same....

    Perhaps have a second Rally in the Ozarks....................................Dickie

    Like myself, I know many of us do our own wrenching. However, maybe some would appreciate a couple tech sessions in performing certain maintenance procedures so that they might feel comfortable doing the same. Heck, just removing panels and body work could be a class. Just a thought. We could weigh the interest in such an activity.

    I'd like to see a more comprehensive pre-ride briefing; prior to each major ride. Do's, don't's, proper group riding etiquette; etc.

    I was not sure of everyone's group riding abilities on a motorcycle; especially in a group ride... so was a little nervous while participating in them.

    Now that I know everyone there was a good rider; but for newcomers next year... it would be advantageous for all of us if some basic's were laid out for group riding....

    I have to agree with this one. However, I also understand it might make the event more accessible to those who felt Franklin was too far due to their location further west.

    How about a session on how to wash the bike? I volunteer Sweet Georgia to be used for demonstration purposes.
