I went and took a nice patriotic pic on hwy71 (AR). I went out to take some pics of my bike but my camera battery was dead. This was with my phone.

So thought I'd share again as Bettie has changed a little bit recently. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do :-)

Solitary mountain road

That woulda been a heck of a run for ya if a car came flying over the top of that crest.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

Went out to scout a photo op for the relay.

Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

First ride of the season. Usually have to bundle up a bit for the first few, but today (one day event only I understand  :() it hit 80F.  ;) Still a good deal of winter sand in the worst of all places  :(, but otherwise, great ride.

Great picture Chris! That's what this thread is all about IMO. Lot of history in that little town. In case anyone thinks the statue is politically incorrect it was donated to the town from the Miami Indian Chief Godfrey in 1985, so it would be an insult not to present it. The town was a rough and tumble oil/gas town in the early 1900s. Town bank robbed by John Dillinger in the 30s. Now a sleepy little farm town. Jealous of your ride, but I made a little headway on Phaedrus.
