Consider me in, I missed this one last year and regretted it big time.

Count on me being there.

Lurking....I read last year's ride report several weeks ago and was instantly a fan. Hoping to make this one, thanks.

Count me in. Attended last year, will this year

oh boy oh boy OH BOY!!! Cant wait!

Hey all, glad to see some familiar names subscribe - please pass the word that we had a great time last year and that we are going to do it again...........also, wanted to let everyone know that this years Loose Nut is going to be a COMPLETELY NEW ride. We are going to try to make this an Annual Event on the first weekend of November that does NOT ride the same roads/route. We are currently working on a completely NEW route, but it will be the same type of Ride your own Ride format. Routes will not be posted until later in the year, but we will be posting teaser pics and some of the highlights you can expect to see. So far this has to be one of my favorites.........you just can't get much more REDNECK than this wonderful Southern Indiana mailbox post

I think I can arrange vacation for this.

Awesome. Should be snowing again by then, no?

I probably shouldn't tell you FFs this, but my Mom lives in Gibson County (Owensville, IN). Could be a good excuse to visit and rack up brownie points while enjoying a nice DS ride...

Subscribed. Missed 2012 due to scheduling conflict, looking forward to it this year.

I'm in. Kickin' myself for missing last year.

Subscribed. And planning to attend. First-timer

Had a blast last year.

Can just anyone come or do I need an invite?

Backmarker--You will need a special permit issued by the ISP

This ride was fun last year. I just may be there with the new bike.....and some warmer riding gear. Lots of time to think about it yet. Thanks for posting way ahead of time. You up for another go at it Goedde?
