Yea, thanks Heffay.  But I wonder, did Gerhed have to spend the whole outing with his head tilted 90 degrees?

One time we were hanging out there, went for a spin with a few guys I met on Honda fours. Had lots of beer then rode out of the campground.. when I got to the highway I popped the clutch and did a huge wheelie!!!  I remember being able to see way up then huge Redwoods with my headlight, like straight up :o which I sorta found odd.. Later them guys said do you always do that , you were really up there, and I said well maybe a bit higher than usual..
 Sorta forgot about it till I was cleaning the bike later and found a scrape on the lowerlip of the rear fender Like roadrash on the edge)!! I could not  for the life of me figure out how that could have happened... until I remembered that wheelie.. ulp!!  :-\

333,

Sideways is easy.
Pictures were taken with a 4x5 view camera.
The images that I saw were upside down and backwards !
