Topic: Missed companions.
As the fall is slowly giving into winter and fewer and fewer motorcycles are found on the road I find this time most difficult as I remember my good buddy Jack. He and I would be riding strong together into November, now I do it alone. Still I go to my phone to shoot Jack a text to see if he wants to do a 30' ride into work with me... Anyway I don't want to go all morbid so this can include just missed companions that are no longer around to ride with or maybe its the group you love to explore with from one of the great GSR meets we have and wish you could ride with those companions every weekend...
So with that here is Jack's +100K miles V-strom and what he called my "British Harley". On one of many random pickup rides we would do together.
Just broke 40' and the rain stopped. Off to go grab my daily hundred!
Have a fantastic weekend folks!

Dave Davis special by Scott Marvin, on Flickr
Never a doubt on this subject, just had to find a pic of one of the late Dave Davis's (painterdave) bikes. This one he rode from Northern Illinois to Indiana and back banging like a jack hammer. Once he tore into it, one or more of the cam retainer bolts had backed out. How he got there and back is lost to history but it was not the first "mechanically questionable" bike Dave had ridden a long way to meet his GSR Brethren......

....maybe its the group you love to explore with from one of the great GSR meets we have
.,
Bruce Bomber747 and two others from Northern Minnesota (10 hour ride to southern Indiania), Adam LoudET and me.
That morning at breakfast I had told Brian that I was gonna ride out on my own, and then a little bit later these three guys approach me and said Brian says I could lead a group, the slow group I think they said. I explained that I really wasnt a group leader, but they could follow me if they wanted to make it to the Ohio RIver, and that I might stop a few times if I saw something interesting. And then Adam joined us.
We had a great time. THey didnt mind stopping when I did, and a couple times one of them would pull up to me at a stop sign or something and ask if we could go back to someplace they saw. If I had any problem with these guys following me was that if/when stopped it was hard to get them going again since they were running around taking pictures of the scenery and each other.
On the occasion of this picture, We were going down BecksMill Rd, I saw a cemetery on left side close to the road. and a place on right that had a circular driveway, so I pulled in the driveway and went in and around an stopped out by the road, the other guys followed me around and also stopped along the road. I ran across street, set up camera on a headstone and set up the delay shutter and ran back across the street. I have liked this pic although crooked from the slope of the road.
With a little more organization, could have had bikes more evenly spaced and such. But there was very little organization/direction other than me jumping off my bike, pointing here-here-here-here and running across road to set up the camera.
At every stop the three guys were exclaiming at how much fun they were haveing, like they had never done anything like this before.
Adam was back a few more years.
Oh, that was my first experience leading a group at a rally. And have not increased nor improved any organization/planning for leading a group on the other years since.
I have greatly enjoyed other groups have rode with at BC over the years, many on repeat occasions, but I like this picture.Last edited by Redman; 10-17-2020, 08:18 PM.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg
