I realize this is from another forum but I thought I would post this link since it is a localized event . If it goes against the rules I understand if it gets deleted. I know where this event is, just have never been to one,its an easy drive ( I'm thinking a motorcycle ride by then)and not in the huge city. Thinking maybe the "local Illinois (or Indiana)boys" in here may want to go and we can meet.

It's in the summer, and outside the city, in St. Charles, IL. Who knows. Maybe that huge pipe crowd would be interested in a vendor ($150 for a table) of shredders and whole leaf pipe tobaccos: Latakia, Lemon, VA Bright, VA Red, Orientals, burley, dark air. With a power shredder, pipe blending is as easy as tossed salad. And rumor has it that many pipe smokers love cigars.

Pheasant Run is a resort blast from the past. Had a seminar there once. Played golf, Seinfeld in the theater, etc. It's not Chicago, but an easy train ride into the city if interested. St. Charles & Geneva very quaint. Nice place for a weekend visit.

I have an Ultra Limited ,its got all sorts of storage compartments but I can't fit all that in my motorcycle. I'm more worried about what I can fit in it to bring home.
