probably wont make this one--just FYI-Jefferson can get VERY busy-ride captain may want to stay on 64 as long as possible(and hope for the best).or consider Rt 17 for part of the way. |

Hey everyone! While manning the PGR Info Booth at Bayside H-D yesterday afternoon, who should arrive?! Tim Foley and his Brother Chris. I must admit, I knew I'd seen him... but couldn't put the face with a name.... as soon as he said Tim.... I zerod in on the Foley, and Chris. Peggy & Tim just returned from Hawaii, and Tim was out riding his new Bike. Now we're just counting the days until Tuesday Evening! Also nice to know Todd is back on "real World" soil, and not the sandbox.
Regards, |

| We will take the trip from Newport News to Norfolk and back. Conditions on Jefferson at that hour should be fine...weather permitting. As for the HRBT...total crap shoot. |

Woody, For us on the southside, do you want to stage @ K-mart again? Those coming from the other side of the water will have to pass right by it.

gunner--i think rick from york county and his wife are going, and momei,who i havent met. where on the penninsula are you-- noticed the 804 area code. Im near fort eustis, so any place to meet works for me. how about the Kmart on victory? may be convenient for all, with easy access to the interstate. my number is (757) 810-1694 |

Turk344 Steve,
As of now it pretty much looks that way... I've had a few set backs on publishing the Warning Order... but we're still good time wise.. FYI staging point times will be from about 17:00-ish until 18:10. Still need to firm up with Norfolk Intl Airport Police by Friday to ensure same page and hopefully parking for this mission. When you get a chance, gimme a call on my cell phone.
Regards, |

Maybe you can hook up with Tim & Chris Foley (Lcpl Todd Foley's Dad & Uncle) and whoever else that'll be in their procession, and ride over as a group.
I'm putting the finishing touches on the Mission OpOrder, still have to double check with the LEO's at the airport, and hopefully will have it published sometime Friday.
ALL, for your planning purposes.... I will state, the Staging point will be at the KMart on the coner of N. Military and Norview (just off of I-64) from 17:00 until approximately 18:10. No matter where you'll be coming from, remember traffic sucks at this time of day, so please plan accordingly.
