There was a RG500 at a local bike last summer, be honest i didn't know anything about the bike until they announced it won its class and talked about it.
Very cool engine.

That's what you look like? Your photo in your sig block makes you appear to be gray or blond and much older...

You are merely middle aged with a touch of gray in the beard...

You wouldn't bother flipping us off if you didn't care at all... So, you have some feelings for us, even if they are not of a kind or affectionate nature.(Please save those for Shelia...

)

Thanks for the videos, gotta live vicariously through your adventures as I'm out of work and can't afford the bike insurance and its winter here....darn depressing weather. I really need some cheering up...

this might either cheer you up or bore you.

Blimey you seem to be on the left side of the road?

dave500 · « **Reply #637 on:** January 20, 2015, 12:03:10 PM »

Ha, ha...
Reminds me of AZ...
We have a breed of quail (Gambel's Quail) that have little dangle hanging over their heads and the babies follow the mother around just like the ducks follow the mother. They are quite cute. They will stay on the ground a lot rather than take flight in the desert scrub even after they can fly and can move very quickly.

They are quite fun to watch.

The roadrunners are as well. Very fast.

The tarantulas can be fun too...they come out during certain times of the year and at night to hunt. I didn't see scorpions in the wild but friends had trouble with them. They can be a real problem. They can be almost transparent.

You have those lovely drop bears and browns whereas we had the rattlesnakes and mohave vipers with their neurotoxin (looked just like a western diamondback but had the neurotoxin that would kill you in 12 hours whereas your brown would kill you far quicker...).

Thanks Dave...
Need to be longer...though...too brief, ya know...

Thanks!
David
