man, I am tired. I put on almost 30,000 miles according to my speedometer. Wixil, your fender is off a goldwing. 100 percent. good to meet you, and adam I took a few pics with my phone and daph did as well so as soon as possible i will put them up. We had a great time, no one got hurt and had a lot of laughs.... always at the expense of others. put it on your calendars now.

I'd have to say that the caliber of bikes I witnessed at Hawthorn Park was way beyond what I expected.  Way to go gents.  I seriously hope no one witnessed my less than subtle escape towards home. 

I meant to call you before we headed out this morning, but I think everyone was just ready to hit the road.

What happened on your way out?

This run was by far the most incredible experience in the history of ever! Everyone that I know of got home safe and sound and with just enough oil in their motor. I snapped only a couple pics while on the run, but I'll get them uploaded shortly. Couldn't have gone any better in my eyes.

One of the valves in his petcock got clogged. He made it there without issue after that.

Just try to crop out the trailer that pulled all our bikes around for photo ops. BTW I need the oil spritzer bottle back.

Great narrative, the pictures almost speak for themselves.
Beautiful scenery. I was up there about a month ago.  .......In my truck. :-\

He's already plotting the next one from what I gather, probably a cb750 by the sounds of it.

Once I get this house stuff somewhat sorted, I'll start getting the cb350 going for next year.

Any ideas on next years route?

Just got back from the river to find those great pictures.  Looks like it was a blast from start to finish.  It was good getting to meeting you guys.  I had a little snafu with my fuel petcock and my battery while I was pulling out on hwy 7 leaving the bar.  A little agitation and a few kicks and I got it going pretty quick.  I'm pretty sure I set off a car alarm on my way out when I opened it up.

Daph said she wouldn't mention our shirt swap, but I guess the possum is out of the satchel.

Probably won't say therapists on them, but maybe we can do some others as well.

I'll find out the cost and let you know.
