    Dang, I was # 4000....cool.

    Footnote to last nights post....
    The pictured cup has been my chosen vessel to occasionally sip adult baverages from for a good many years. Wine glasses with their fragile nature and high center of gravity arent safe with me.....
    The pictured cup was low and had most of its mass concentrated at the bottom, making it very stable...
    But ......after retreating to the living room to listen to some music to unwind (garage radio was acting up), I placed it on the end table apparently more then halfway over the edge...it fell and broke.....

    When consulting the magic 8 ball for advice, one must first ask it "will your answers be accurate?"

      THAT SUCKS…
      I just got a new favorite glass, took it to the cottage…my favorite place to sip a beverage, just the right size with a gold line around the rim and it fits my hand perfectly. Wonder how long it will last???

      And to stay somewhat on the topic of riding, I have had our cabin for 14 yrs now and have NEVER rode my GS there WOW I need to change that!

          Henry and I rode our dual purpose bikes up to a giant Canadian flag above the town of Falkland, BC. (Where Henry lives)


          The flag is near this quarry where they mine gypsum.

            Out exploring yesterday, didn't get back until 12:15 this morning. This pic was taken from a road that started out as two lanes, paved, with lines and everything: KY1756. It went on like this for a couple miles, some of it a bit rutted by water. The view was just too pretty to not stop and take a look.

                  Broke the triple out for a quick spin after flushing out it's brake systems. I wanted to gain some confidence so I drove it around the back yard...

                  +

                  After a quick warm up to make sure everything was still in good working condition I brought it under the pull barn and commenced to De-L it... First to go was the buck-horns, slapped on my last set of super-bike bars...


                  Took the Ole' Yammy down the road and back... Man that tripple makes such an awesome exhaust note... NO words can describe .

                  Then broke Connie out for a quick spin then photo shot!

                          There has been very little rain. Like 3 or 4 days since May.

                            Good for riding but not so good for flora.

                                It's way down here. It sorta funny to me that when I ask Google for directions from one end to the other, it tells me to go around. I had to select the road itself as an alternate route.
