Prairiehammer Posted April 1, 2011 Share #1 Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) Howie over at the MTA site is digitizing the various publications that the Old Venture Touring Society and later the Motorcycle Touring Association produced. I was browsing recently and encountered this funny story by our own Don Nelson (Freebird). http://www.mtariders.com/magazine/Nov_Dec%2002.pdf (page 14).

Freebird Posted April 1, 2011 Share #3 Posted April 1, 2011 LOL....I think I still see stars from that one. I can tell you though, that bike is a LOT easier to get out from under you that a RSV is...but that was another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcoop Posted April 1, 2011 Share #6 Posted April 1, 2011 Did you jump the RSV over the pond ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOO Posted April 1, 2011 Share #7 Posted April 1, 2011 Hell he can't even get the RSV out of the garage without it crawling all over him..... Good to see the stuff from the VTS group, when I was looking for some pictures the other day I found some pictures of one of the meets I attended in Springfield, Mo. When I get them scanned I'll post them on this site. BOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Annie Posted April 1, 2011 Share #11 Posted April 1, 2011 if he does that the pond monster is liable to move in the house with him... Going by the pics I've seen of the pond monster...it will give him somewhere to park the front wheel of his bike :rotf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbran Posted April 1, 2011 Share #13 Posted April 1, 2011 Might have been better had he landed in the pond like he usually does.LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted April 2, 2011 Share #14 Posted April 2, 2011 I don't know if I invented the stoppie or the slammy. and YES....the pond would have been MUCH easier on the head and ribs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
