IH Truck Guy Posted November 20, 2013 Share #1 Posted November 20, 2013 Just wanted to thank a couple of great friends. Mike and Cherie Eykamp. EUSA1 and Lucy. I was stuck under a oversize load in Illinois due to curfews for the weekend. They came 40 miles to pick me up at the truckstop and put me up for the weekend. We had a awesome time and Cherie even let me take her baby out for a bike ride with Mike.Saw some local history in the area...Very cool. I never knew about the 50' high statue of Blackhawk over looking the Rock River. Thanks again guys.... And yes Carl,I know I was riding another chick bike.. I know your keeping track....:rotfl: That makes 3 in my travels... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealthblade Posted November 21, 2013 Share #6 Posted November 21, 2013 eusa1, my buddies and I usually ride from Elgin to Savanna through Byron. Maybe I can talk them into turning south to Dixon. Besides 'Clawed', you may be my closest neighbor... would be nice to meet up. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealthblade Posted November 21, 2013 Share #8 Posted November 21, 2013 Thought we might have a nice fall like last year, but it doesn't seem to be in the cards. Probably put the bike in stasis this weekend though I have been dreading the thought. Hope to see you after the white stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
