Tim, sorry to hear that... I know I will try much harder to make next year's.
I guess things could be worse, like no job...

Like.....Damn.....Timmmmmmm!
Bummer, was really looking forward to meeting you this year. I just got finished informing my bride that I don't care if a Hurricaine is coming for us, I am leaving on schedule!
Katrina will be onshore by Monday, that gives me 3 days to get the evacuation stuff done, clear up the yard and get power back. Otherwise she can go to Tx. for the week!
Does a 130 mph tailwind count for an Bub Burner Gold? :D

I know, I know...........:mad: I'm really upset about this situation. The MAIN reason I wanted to go to WeSToc was to meet all you ST folks. :( (and beer, oh and maybe a ride or two)
So, howz NatSToc planning coming Joe??
Anyone know what the current unemployment compenstation rates are??
:eek: TIM: "ST Brother by another mother"
You must be kidding ??
Whatever your reason...it must be vital important because I know how much you were looking forward to it. :(
Sucks.
Hope your situation changes in the next 9 days. If not, take care of business and start looking toward WESTOC XI

Well, I got the wife's PC800 back together today. Statorectomy completed and it's making electricity again like it's going out of style. Wow do you ever have to take a lot of plastic off that beast to get to the engine. Even worse than the ST.
We'll be leaving on Sunday and riding over toward Monteray, then Monday down the coast to SLO. The wife's first long ride so we need to keep the daily mileage down
Looking forward to seeing all my old friends from previous WeSTOC's and meeting new ones from the forum here and others. It'll be a little smaller than some of the WeSTOC's, we're expecting about 125 people, but that means it'll just be a bit more intimate.
WeSTOC newbies, don't forget to ask for your first-timer ribbon so we can make a special effort to make you feel welcome. And you old-timers, welcome back, the tenth anniversary of WeSTOC will be something special. It'll be happy in that we'll be welcoming new friends to the rally, and sad that some of the regulars won't be able to make it.
But I guarantee, a good time will be had by all, well, except those of you who aren't there. We'll host a beer to those who can't make it, and make a special toast to our departed members.
It's the biggest STOC event of the year. You should be there, there's still time to make it.
See you there!
Don...

Darn right Joe,
The reason I can't go this year is my return to "what I do" after a 4 year layoff! I got the call a week ago Friday with an offer to return and I accepted of course.
11/21/01 was the laST day I worked at my real job.
Everyone have a fun, safe time and take lots of pictures for us homebound riders. You are going to love the area.

Don't worry Bro... it will happen... I'll wait to see the exact date of next year's WeSTOC and try to make them butt up against each other so those that can't make both might be able to at least make one... some, will be able to make both I hope..

That would be kinda fun to ride from one to the other!!:D :mcrider:
Sorry to read this Tim. We were hoping we could ride down the coast.
Hopefully things will turn back around for you.

This just in: SPilot may go to WeSToc, Film at Eleven!! :eek:
Ok gents, I'm working on a back up plan.. I may be able to leave Sacto early Wednesday morning and head to SLO for Wed-Thu-Fri. My original plan was to ride to tahoe with Chris and Al on Friday and Sat, since they're not going, I'll just go home Friday. This just might work, I dont know what I'll miss on Tuesday, but I'll try and make up for it Wed. I'm sure I'll have to catch up on the beer intake, but hey.....I didn't get this girlish figure from Jenny Craig......:D
I wont know for sure until Monday, I know, talk about last minute!!!!

Well it looks like I'll get to go to Westoc for the last night only. It's worth a road trip. I'll probably arrive around 6 pm and mingle at the hotel til everyone's tired. Then I'll grab a cheap hotel enroute back to PHX. See ya'll there... just look for the orange glow on the eastern horizon. :D
