Yeah that's the store!... But the Beef Supply is no more. It's a Maplefields now. They kept the cow though, it's still a redneck gas stop but everything is brand new now... Weird in a good way.Jedz Moto

Finally at 4pm I got a chance to head out for a bit. My wife and I were downtown shopping today and I was noticing how many fantastic murals we have around here. We got the truck home and off I went on the bike. Short ride but really fun going to find these works of art.
Gotta love these classic games.
If I could see a loud sudden noise I imagine it would look something like this.
Behind a music club.
Some local favorites
I set the phone down and ran back to the bike , just kidding. A nice bystander offered to take my pic.
Trippy!

Nice photos
Hey Roger,
Love these, strange low sunlight, clear air, lots of color, and NO SNOW!!!
Getting a good look at your 850G too, you're like the western Redman.
Just wondering why the lady with glasses? Maybe the owner, or wife?

Great pics, Burque.
Everything you read about street murals say that the "tagging" blight is almost eliminated.Last edited by steve murdoch; 12-12-2016, 08:41 AM.2@ \'78 GS1000

Found this article about the murals. Not a music club, my mistake.
Brainbow Alley
Photo by Sommer Smith
Lead Artist: Larry Bob Phillips
Year: 2015
Location: Alley behind 516 ARTS
This mural is a “mash-up of high and low culture, art history and comic books” says 516 ARTS. Brainbow Alley, located in an alleyway between 5th and 6th street just south of Central, is a mash-up of skeletons and humans locked in a never-ending battle. Think you recognize someone? You probably do. The artist chose to depict actual people living and working in Albuquerque. Brainbow Alley demonstrates how alleys can be transformed into spaces of creative expression. And you thought you knew everything about this town…

I challenge you (and anybody else). Just don't leave it out when it is snowing.
The little lights are better at outlining shapes (if take more time and effort than I did).
The bigger bulbs (like I used a few years ago) are better at illuminating the bike so can see what it is better.

A few of us went out for a Saturday lunch ride, didn't turn out like we were expecting. One of our riders went down at a place we call Dead Mans curve and yes it is called for a good reason. They were very lucky, this could have ended up being deadly for sure. As it was, if they had been wearing safety gear, what injuries they did get would have been largely negated.
