I hope to be riding one of my 1978 MX-6 KTM 250's. (Penton-KTM transition bikes), Does that count? I may also bring a couple of Pentons along with me. Mike

Was trying to have a 74 Jackpiner ready, but looks like it won't be done. Unless the penton fairys show up at night and put it all together. Work and life keep getting in the way of progress.
 Will be riding 77' Maico 400GS, at lease it's German.

Dwight,

   I really like your idea of a Steel Tanker team.  I am taking delivery of a disasembled project bike next week and that may be a great use of that machine.

   I talked to Jack today and he will be attending along with JP. Chad and I are planning on riding and maybe Brett will be with us.

   I asked Hodaka Paul to equip those Hodies with horns so that we will hear you guys coming up on us, at my age I hate surprises:)

   I hope to see and meet all of you guys at this great event.

Hi all,
I like the idea of a Steeltanker team also. My brother Bob and I rode ours Steeltankers together at Zink in 2004 and it was a blast !! The highlight of our weekend was pulling into the the first checkpoint on Sunday and there stands John Penton. We promptly rode over there and got him to sign our tanks. Man was that cool !! I planned to retire the bike after the 2004 RR but had to ride it again at the 2005 RR in New Blaine because my primary bike had an ignition failure just after I pulled away from the starting line. Was having a great ride on the Steeltanker again last year until the back sprocket hub bearings went south causing it to throw the chain and damage the rear wheel. That ended my weekend a bit early but still had a great time anyway. I might be persuaded to take my bike out of retirement if needed. I'd try my best to keep up with you fast guys so let me know. See you in a few weeks in Park Hills !!

I'll call you in the morning.  I'm flying out of Tucson Friday morning and coming back on Sunday.  I already have a car and hotel room that might even have two beds  .  All you need is a plane ticket and someone to feed the dogs.  

Talk with you in the morning, Skip

Dwight don't get to excited and get all worn out before we start. We need you , Dave Crain and Greg Holder to anchor our Hodaka Trophy team. All of us Hodaka guys are going to enjoy riding with our Penton brothers in a few weeks. See you there !
Paul

Paul,

You guys haven't changed the secret Hodaka handshake on me have you? (after a few years of me riding a KTM, and the 2004 ISDTRR in Tulsa when my KTM rode me!)

Maybe you and your "Band of Brothers" will see fit to let me share your campfire and tell a story or two of our epic battle at Mid-Ohio seeing as I will be picking up a Hodaka Dave (Rozier) built Ace 100A at this years Reunion Ride?

Just spoke with Ron Ribolzi and he says entries are low at the moment. I feel everyone is dragging their feet on sending them in.  This is a MUST DO event.  You will not want to miss another if you attend.  The Thursday afternoon / night Open House at Dave Munganast's Museum will be a moving Tribute to Dave and his memory.  Please attend if possible.
Please send in your entries and get your friends to do so also.  The club needs to plan the Banquet and put the entries in order for numbering.  Can't wait to see everyone there.
GETTING EXCITED,
Dwight

I don't understand why everyone doesn't do what I do??  Each year I plan my vacation time which always includes days off for the ISDT Reunion Ride.  When the host club sends out the entry forms I bet my entry is one of the first ten they receive.  Yes, the event is THAT good.  Seeing all your friends and riding with your heros plus seeing all the exquisite vintage machinery is too good to procrastinate.
