Posts: 7580 06/06/09 7:55 AM	Gary, You lucky dog. No rain all week? Guess I picked the wrong route since I rode through at least 8 hours of rain and very wet roads. I did not think Dixie could take one more accessory, but then again I would be wrong wouldn't I? So good to see you healthy, happy and riding. Despite what Alain says I always enjoy your company. Fred

HSATF 1st Officer Posts: 1007 06/06/09 8:29 AM	Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...I feel much better now, Fred! LOL! I just really enjoy reading everyone's stories and seeing the pics that go along with the journey. Sure is nice seeing all those bikes lined up with the water behind them - what a pretty sight! Thanks! Live It, Love It, Paint It, Ride It! Eclectic Dawn Arts

I was having too fun fun to become a serious photojournalist! hahaha Gary "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: Wow!!!

HSATF 1st Officer Posts: 1007 06/06/09 10:27 AM	Gary, thanks for the link, you got some great shots of smiling faces! That Stallion is interesting, I've never seen one - it's sort of like a sport trike! Live It, Love It, Paint It, Ride It! Eclectic Dawn Arts

HSATF 1st Officer Posts: 1133 06/06/09 10:54 AM	The Stallion was a pretty popular demo. I didn't try one through. I knew that if I liked it, I couldn't afford one. They start at $33,000. I'm not really a trike guy anyway. The one sight that intrigued me the most was that wheelchair sidecar we saw at Ft Ticonderorga. That was inspiring to me.

HSATF 1st Officer Posts: 928 06/07/09 6:48 PM	First to leave and last to get home, what a great trip, 2470 miles in 11 days. It was great seeing everyone. Sean and I got caught in a few light showers today but not much. We rode south from Rochester to US-6 in PA and headed west, hoping to skirt under the rain on the radar. I'll post more latter. One question, how many days till the HSATF rally? Tony

I wanted to thank you and Sean again for the great times that we shared last week. I had a lot of fun. I hope that we can do it again.

Posts: 7580 06/07/09 8:24 PM	Tony, Welcome home. I have fond memories of riding US 6 in PA. Andy and I did that in 2004 on our way to Americade. Looking forward to your summary and pictures.

HSATF 1st Officer Posts: 1133 06/08/09 10:17 AM	Hey, Bud. You have nothing to complain about with the Ozarks. I love that area. They aren't as tall as some of the other mountain ranges in our great nation, but being the oldest, they still have a lot going for them. I'd go for a ride with you there any time.

HSATF 1st Officer Posts: 1133 06/08/09 8:38 PM	Thanks Rich. I felt bad posting that and just saying 'his girlfriend', but I couldn't remember her name for the life of me. Tell Richie and Carli that I apologize. Nice to see that you guys made it home safely. I hope that if we do it again that I can get some more time with you guys, It was good seeing you all again.
