I think the Riv Rally is a fantastic idea, and I'm amazed at Bobby's ability to bring an idea like that to fruition. I associate it in my mind with classic auto rallies, like the Austin Healey rally that came through my town a few years ago, or the dozens of MGs I saw on my drive down the East side of the Sierras last Summer. As an outsider, I thought that was cool. I talked to one guy on the AH rally who was driving something else, but he came out to see his friends and the countryside. I used to be into hearses, and the Professional Car Socieuses would put on rallies and meets. I didn't consider it pretentious - it was a way to meet people you only knew online, check out their amazing stuff, and do something together. I won't apologize for making auto connections in a bike forum, since I think it's a valid comparison. We are into something that's outside the mainstream, and we have every right to celebrate it and enjoy it, come together and share it. I got great vicarious pleasure out of both the past Riv Rallies, and hope they continue.
