    Hey all,
    Voting for Baatfam. Two 1100e bikes in a row. Awesome. Willie really needs to share some pics of that blue / silver 1100e. A lot of GSR history in that bike from what I recall.

        Really liking Bob baatfam pic for the composition and how well illuminated it is. And bikes nicely spaced. Nice sharp pic of the bikes, no distraction from the bikes.

        voting for Trevor’s for the comradery and joviality of the group, and the way the group is arranged and includes the bikes in a similar line. I wonder if was impromptu or if pre-scheduled. Also wonder which bike was Trevor’s at the time.
        hey, trev, maybe voting for pic will prompt you to name the folks. I recognize Sandy.

            Saturday morning.

            My count:
            baatfam 5 (actually was 1 for Bob and 4 for baatfam), SteveMurdock 2, Trevor 3.

            Someone could verify, But I think Mr Bob Baatfam's fine crisp photo of the group of GSs is a winner this week.

              Hey Trev, Let me request you to name the folks there (and bikes too).
              And maybe tell us how the opportunity for that photo came about.
              Maybe I like that photo because I have requested such at a somewhat similar gathering,
              and the response was less than positive (I am being polite here.).


              Hey, Bob, Let me request you to name the bikes there.
              I have no idea about the blue-silver E, other than Mr Glen Dorkburger mentioned "Willie" (and I recall a Willie from TN, I think, had a GK at one time).
              THen there is your nice red E.
              And, Let me quess.... the silver painted one is that Chicago guy Dom.
              And I suspect the black one would have been Greg gbw bike (750 '78?).
              ..... and so each of those last two puts the time frame about 2008-2010 or so.

                Based on my foggy memory and the fact that I’m stuck at home this weekend I checked stuff based on that foggy memory. The blue / silver 1100e belonged to Joe Nardy and was painted by NVR2old. I think that Willie bought it, but didn’t find any posts about it...

                  Best I remember that bike has two complete sets of bodywork with it.

                    Thanks for the votes....Always liked that photo.

                    Dave, it was Aug 25th, 2012. Our little Illinois group took a day trip into Wisconsin for lunch, with a stop at the Duluth Trading Post.

                    Y'all got the bikes correct.
                    Joe Nardy's in front. Then my red 1100E.
                    The silver 1000 was Dom, who I think sold it several years ago and no longer rides.
                    And the 750E was Greg White's (GBW), who later sold it to Wazz.

                    Not pictured was the elusive Mr. Robert Barr who joined us that day. He parked across the street.
                    Here is the group, with Mr. Barr (white helmet) and his 850G, at a gas stop.



                    Here is a another photo of the bikes in front of the store...


                    Thanks again for the votes. I'll have a theme up by lunchtime.

                      Seems that even in 2012 you had a good camera

                          OK....Not really coming up with anything. Feeling a little lost. Yes lost.

                          This week's theme is "Lost"
