If I needed an incentive to get my B50 finished, I have one now.

It would be nice, but I'll be going to the poor European event near Groningen.

I've just realised that next year the annual Bay to Birdwood is being run on Sunday 22 October so anyone who arrives early for the BSA Rally will be able to attend what is also a fantastic event for vintage and classic car and motorcycle enthusiasts. There are limited spots for participants because of its popularity so anyone wanting to enter their motorbike (or car for that matter), will have to get in quick when entries open. And for those who have no idea what I'm talking about.

"The annual Bay to Birdwood is one of the world’s great historic motoring events as well as the largest continually-held motoring event for veteran, vintage and classic vehicles anywhere in the world.
Historic motorcars, motorcycles, and commercial vehicles travel the 67km route from the coastal suburb of West Beach to the National Motor Museum in the Adelaide Hills town of Birdwood. With a history spanning back to 1980, the Bay to Birdwood is a well-known and highly respected historic motoring event that brings the community and citizen-collectors from across the globe together for a celebration".

I would love to go to something similar here in the states. I live in the Southeast, and it seems there aren’t many events like this nearby.

On my way over to Hahndorf today for the rally

All was good for the Rally until the ride to Mt Barker railway station when I went to go home the bike started and then stopped the battery failed so i had to come home on the trailer. I replaced it with the lithium one I had and finished the rides.
When I got home the headlight and the ignition light had blown.
The rides were hilly and bendy. The caravan park was the steepest I have been in, I was puffing walking up to the amenities block. (Old age and leaky heart valve)
The dinners were good, the rider were friendly and there was 3 forum members there that I knew.
