…. parked in BenelliSEI’s front yard after completing the magnificent Ganaraska 250 km ride on Saturday.
John’s garage with the G250 start and finish on the right, his shop on the left.
SOHC4 member Laids red and blue-green CB750s center.

Excellent !
How was the ride;was part of it on dirt roads ?!
Only the first and last km was on dirt. The secondary roads are chip seal and just a few had loose stones. The countryside is hilly wooded rural farms and forests, the fall colors were present and there was blue skies and abundant sunshine all day Saturday. The roads were nearly empty, I think we passed a combine on its way to harvest, and there were just two RYG signals in 250 km. I believe Phil Goldsmith created the route and he has done a superb job on a superb canvas.
 I entered in to John’s shop and found a Wanderer
 To its left was the Concours winning Sandcast
 In the back of the shop was a nice early GoldWing

Very Nice  :)
I love those types of scenes/roads.
I like that dark blue/green GW.

Erny, can you tell us the road you were riding on and who took the photo? Will you make a poster or enlargement? It’s a terrific action photo.

Erny, can you tell us the road you were riding on and who took the photo? Will you make a poster or enlargement? It’s a terrific action photo.

It is twisty road near Bratislava, Slovakia, favourite road of many bikers from that area. It is here https://maps.app.goo.gl/ip7qDsUZL17wxLzt5. During summer weekends or nice weather full of motorbikes.
During nice weekends there is high probability that some photographer is there (especially this season), so all you need to do is ride and enjoy  ;). Photos are then offered for small fee on local FB group next days.

For the moment I do not plan to make poster, but maybe one day.. I already have quite some some photos from there :)

First run out, work to do. The carbs overflowed once stationary, they have been OK with the bike on the centre stand for the past 3 weeks.

I'm still chasing an annoying off-idle hesitation, but she can't stay in the garage forever.
