Guys,
Jeff Tank's latest contact email that I have is: jeff.tank at roadrunes.com if you want to reach out to him.
I haven't seen or heard from him since the BMWBMW Square Route Rally last year.

Re:Festival of Fives
I believe that was Seneca Rocks.
I came late to the party, but.....
I think the guy that organized FoFs went by the name Rocket Man. I had heard he moved on to another type of motorcycle. He was on the BMWBMW forums. Hmm... I think he also changed his online name to something else. Or maybe it was the other way around. I don’t remember things so well anymore.
I went out to what may have been the last of those events. Rocket Man did not show but we had a good time. I heard stories it used to be quite the event. Certainly a beautiful place to hold a rally. My son tells me the Princess Snowbird campground has a new bathhouse.
