I’ll be sending you a note confirming my rally schedule shortly. I will also be reserving you a seat in the front row for my lecture.

My prersentation has very little to do with blogging, and is more about the communications aspects of bringing readers into a story. It will be as informative and as colorful as my monthly columns in the BMW magazine.

I look foreward to meeting you there.

Jack Riepe

I contemplated taking a rain suit along but the way the BMW was configured there wasn’t an easy way to stow it. And I had left all my bungee cords back in the Vespa at Kissell’s. So I forged ahead unprepared.

Luckily the rain was light and sporadic.

Seems like a great way to learn how to ride in rough terrain without trashing your bike.

Let me know if you’ll be coming to the rally. I plan to be there on Friday, July 22 to attend Dr. Riepe’s lecture on blogging.

It was one of the most popular offerings of the expo. And yes, it filled up.

I’m looking forward to your route, Steve. I’ll give it a try if I make it to the Rally. It’s on my schedule, but there is another trip I am also planning.
