That sounds like a great idea to me.. take Godzilla to the capital or how about the Clinton Library or even both.  On Sunday there should be plenty of parking available near either place.

Oh, I see, so Godzilla visits Barber's on the 15th and y'all head for Little Rock (via Jackson & Tallulah) on the 16th.  On to Van Buren for an overnight on the 17th then to Dallas via maybe Checotah, OK on the 18th.

Is that about right?
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.

Our guys have already met and planned our route to Russel Springs. I'll get in contact with them and see if they want to change it all up again. Mammoth Cave area was the area we were going to meet before it was switched to Russel Springs. Are you sure this is what you want to do?

@Silverback - doesn't matter to me. Let me get with Ray & Jason this weekend and we'll confirm on Monday. If Russell Springs, where do you want to meet there?

well no ride for me this year, bikes not done. Were will you guys be on the 3, 4th anyone want a passenger lol. id like to somehow be a part of this.

Hey Ryan,

2 options I've thought about. Maybe one of the guys will loan you a bike OR why not drive the escort car and swap with one of the guys along the way and carry Godzilla! No man left behind!

I'm out for the ride to WV. I'll get with you next week for the next leg.

Magnaman,

Sorry but I didn't find you on the list of riders so you can't go  ;)  ;D Guess you are now rider #257. No way will I leave out a Big Blue Brother!!

I hear Godzilla might be able to get Lewinsky'ed there at the library  ;D

If it's all the same, I think we would like to stick to Russell Springs. We were really looking forward to some of the riding in that area. One of the Kentucky crew mentioned Cumberland State Park just South of Russell Springs. Sounds good to me. I can look into things further.

I'd really like to go on the WV leg but it's not going to happen. There are a lot of fun roads along the way. You guys be careful and have fun. I'll catch up with you next week.


Is it a coincidence with the color?

Maybe......

Godzilla is now in our hands! It did not come easy and I have some work to do before next weekend. Did I mention that my motor completely crapped out 15 miles from home with lots of smoke and spewing oil. It was a great ride until that moment. Should be a fun week!!

Well, looks like my '75 750 is down for the count. My pistons did not fair to well in the melt down. The ring lands have heated up enough to capture(pinch) the rings in place, not allowing for easy movement. I was really hoping is was just a head gasket. I have a ton of those! I have a 78F motor I was going to finish the assembly of and install, but the sprocket offset has killed the deal. Oh well! The show will go on! Godzilla will continue on a SOHC! My buddy will graciously let me ride his CB750 for the trip down South, or he will be on it himself with Godzilla (depending on the weather). If my friend rides, I will follow on my Aprilia. All is well with the continuation of the relay!
