2017 Ralley

[Air Ready Auto]

Had an amazing time with everyone that made it. It was awesome how you all took in this newbie and made me feel like family. I can't thank all of you enough for your help with working that electrical gremlin out and all of the other info/fine tuning on Lucy. She rides and behaves like a new bike now. A special thanks to our hosts for opening their home to us. A truly beautiful slice of heaven.

 

And some pics of the masters at work.

 

A few from the local area including the remastered Lucy.

 

And some of the other locals.

 

I look forward to seeing you all again!

What was that huge block of cheese that was there the other night? Muenster? That was some good stuff.

Some pictures...

 

A cracked rock. As good a place as any, to stop for a break.

 

Some bikes getting ready for the long and winding road.

 

Debating the issues of the day.

 

Camping got moved to higher ground. We knew why on Wednesday.

 

I'll try to get some clips from my dash cam posted, when I figure out how to make some shorter, smaller files.

Home safe. Had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone in person. Orlin did a great job hosting with the help of his wife Sharon and Sherry and who ever else I left out. Thank you so much for all you did. Now to figure out how to post some pics so all can see without taking up too much space.
