Hi Andy, thanks for the compliments on the bikes, yeah thats a busy place on sundays its a big layby and behind the trees on the left is a big picnic area & carpark, toilet block and a place you can get eats & drinks , cheers Mick.

Ah sounds perfect Mick. I used to frequent a biker cafe just outside Oxford. Picnic tables outside, roll and sausage and hot coffee before a morning ride...cant be beat. I miss that place.

Have a good weekend,
cheers
Andy

Andy,

Here are a couple of pics of the sandcast at the C.O.M.A. picnic and a prior ride in St. Petersburg last year. Great bunch of guys there.

Bikey in front of Tino's Auto Repair near Sandia, Texas.

Tino is the name of our cat, so I had to get a photo of his shop!

The ranch house where we stayed on the trip.

GREAT JOB!

i love playing with my camera too. i've got a canon 30D and love to use my 1.8 fish eye for bike shots.
been waiting for the trees to get green so i can go out and shoot some action shots.

Ok.

Here's the Ocho about a mile & half from where I am moving our family. Getting out of the big city and heading for the country...man there's just a million miles of good roads around here, nothing too hilly but loads of great scenery...And the more I look at that low-mile bike, the more I realize I need some stock pipes to finish it off...

Here is mine by Lake Ontario... Oakville, Ontario Canada.

My 1976 CB550F

I think this picture is taken in early March, which for around here is a blessing to have weather warm enough to go for a blast.

JAG, yer bike looks better than ever, some extra polishing perhaps ? P.S....don't ya love our local roads !

Thanks a bunch Ray. Not much more polishing, although I need to get back to it

Is that the same tank that you posted a thread about making the dents in Jag?

Rach-

Hey Rachet, yes it is. I can show you some more pictures from different angles if you'd like to give you a better visual of the depth and curve of it.

Thanks everybody for the kind words.

JAG

P.S. Also very excited about going to Deals Gap or better known as the Tail of The Dragon this weekend, it'll be my first time.. Hope to come back with some great pictures to add to the thread.
