I've been 6-2 since 6th grade! (5-11, 6-2 get it?) Sorry, couldn't resist.

Nothing from Team Strange yet.

Email went out today to the 91 "official" GLMC members.
I will sign up soon.

Perhaps someone could update the official GLMC Facebook page to show the Grand Tour ??

see https://www.facebook.com/WeAreGLMC

Latest entry talks about the Off Road Hare Scramble in April 2025 (so the page/account is still valid), but no mention of the Grand Tour.
There does not seem to be a way to add anything to the discussion, so I guess it needs some Club Official to do it.

We are up to 22 registered riders! That's great!

If you go to the mentions section, that's where the non-page owner posts end up. I used to run it, but Steve Meikle [president] does now. The traffic and number of interactions on that page was so low it wasn't really worth updating other than the South Shore events, which did get interactions. It really only gets post likes and interactions for the Hare Scramble.

The club also has a YouTube channel, that I run. https://www.youtube.com/@glaciallakesmotorcycleclub3440

The audio isn't great on most of them, but I did make these almost a decade ago.

Actually, that was how i stumbled across the GLMC in the first place.

I did a search on YouTube for "motorcycle rally" and bingo, the GLMC Rally video popped up. https://youtu.be/MmxUTBlZT2E?si=TPLDA15nDiat6PxT

In the works

Some interesting facts: as of this evening, MN, PA, and IL are all tied for first place with the most number of registered 2025 GT riders from their respective states. In a very close second is AZ. We have riders from 11 different states and 1 international rider - our brother DownUnder.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - Lee_0123 - 02-18-2025 08:13 AM

Woo Who, we now have 25 registered riders! That's a good start! Nice to see all the names of previous riders.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - Yzr - 02-19-2025 10:45 PM

We are now at 26. With Brother Bowman's registration, MN now is in first place for the state with the most registered riders. IL and PA are now at a paltry 2nd.

I got the Rally Flag zip file but it won't open.

Edit- Nevermind. I had to use a zip extractor on my iMac.

Please be sure to check your Spam / Junk Folder
That is where my Rally Flag email was located.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - Lee_0123 - 02-22-2025 07:53 AM

Got my rally flag printed, almost time to ride!

We have 27 registered riders. There are 8 of us are riding bikes of 1000cc or less.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - Yzr - 03-01-2025 04:51 PM

Submissions have already started to come in. BkerChuck No. 818 is in the lead.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - Lapchik - 03-01-2025 05:08 PM

I really wish I would have just froze my butt off and got the bike ready during the winter. Parts are on back order from Japan for my bike, so I bought an entire used cylinder head to rob a couple $5 parts off of. I can port and polish the head for fun in my free time now I guess.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - JohnF - 03-01-2025 11:46 PM

Could you post 3 or 4 photos that have been submitted and approved? This would give us an idea of what is acceptable.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - Lee_0123 - 03-02-2025 06:40 AM

Woo hoo, we are up to 30 registered riders!

I need to get out and start visiting sites.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - BkerChuck - 03-02-2025 08:18 AM

My ride yesterday wasn't even my planned route. Weather forecast changed through the week and Saturday had wind gusts of over 40mph. I got out early and stopped earlier than I planned.

RE: 2025 Grand Tour General Discussion - BkerChuck - 03-02-2025 11:14 AM

Assuming my submissions yesterday were all accepted the below pic should give you an idea of what I'm doing at least.

The wind sure was strong yesterday. As I rolled up to a traffic light I was hit by a gust of wind before I got my left foot all the way down. I almost lost the bike but I did manage to keep it upright. My left knee is a bit stiff today.
