From Here to Kingdom Come

Whether you call it the WWR (Wolfman Wondering Rally), the KY rally, or the "From Here to Kingdom Come" rally, its all the same. A couple hundred motorcycles from all over the continent converging on the small town of Richmond KY.

Images of Hell's Angels come to mind, but would be so far from wrong. We are all members of the internet-based riding club called VROC (Vulcan Riders and Owners Club). Vulcans are a brand of motorcycles manufactured by Kawasaki. Over 30,000 people have joined the club at www.vroc.org and exchange technical information, and more often connect on a personal level sharing personal successes, tragedies, and request for support and prayers to overcome our daily challenges.

So members often stage get-togethers (rallys) where we can actually meet those we share our lives with in the virtual world. Most are smaller, local rides and rallys. But there are some larger get-togethers as well, and this is one of them.

Instead of riding directly to the event, I am planning a more circuitous route - including WV, PA, OH, KY and maybe TN if the weather holds (map below). I am taking the blackberry and laptop with me, and hoping to do some posting of the pictures taken along the way.
