GrayBeard...this ought to bring back some memories...It was a great ride...good friends, great weather/scenery, and very little traffic.
DieselBoss...thanks. Nice ride you have as well. This weekend got me thinking about a H-D touring bike...they sure are nice.

Geomon,
Great pic and it brings back some great memories. I really miss those weekend rides on the coast. I woud love to get back out there and take my K12 for a nice weekend ride or two on the coast.
"great ride...good friends, great weather/scenery and very little traffic" makes for the perfect weekend.
I forgot I had to replace the hard drive in my laptop and lost all my pics. I will try and get one and post when I get a chance.
Be careul and stay safe! |

| West Virginny looks to be a great place for riding Graybeard...especially with the fall colors coming up. Time to git one of those bikes out on the road!! As much as the west has great riding, the east has its own appeal as well. Get a pic of your ride(s) up when you can...I look forward to seeing them. |

Geomon,
WV also has some of the best roads and scenery for riding. Typically, there is much less traffic to deal with. The fall is my favorite time for riding as the air is fresh and crisp and the fall foliage is hard to beat.
If I can just find my digital camera, I can get those pics posted. I have closed my eyes since the last time I used it, now I can not remember where I put it!!!!! :?
BE careful and stay safe! |

Geomon,
I managed to find a digital camera, not mine and not the best camera in the world. I posted the pics in my photo gallery on this site. I am not sure how to insert them into this post or if I can pull them om my photo gallery.
I hope you enjoy. I will try and get some better ones up a little later. |

Geomon,
The choices are nice, I just wish I had the time to take advantage of it. :sad: Too much to do at work lately, as well as trying to relocate, retire and get set up to be back on the road running come JAN 08.
So much going on lately, I do not know if I am coming or going. :? The dust should settle soon enough though, and get back to just one job! Then let the fun begin! :D
If I could just figure out a way to pull the boat with the bike, then life would be really good! :wink:
Thank you for the kind words. |

Are you a driver now and going for your own authority? I remember you saying in other posts that you have owned trucks in the past and are looking for a new one.
Good luck with all that and sorting out all the govt regulatory issues....I'm sure the pain and aggravation is just short of sticking pins in your arms :P
ps: I tried to resize my pic so we don't have to scroll. It didn't take. I'll try again later.
Cheers |

Geomon,
At the moment I find myself once again the property of Uncle Sam (U.S. Army) I was called back to Acive Duty. I will retire JAN.
I don't want to hijack this thread, so I will tell that story in a different one.
I will go back as lease operator. Too old, broken and tired now to deal with running my own authority. |
