I call my '05 the Blue Dragon

Hey Tom, I heard about your accident yesterday when I was visiting with Steve at the dealership. The pictures really add a whole new dimension to the story. Glad to hear that you will be OK. Steve took a picture of me sitting on your bike before you got it so that was the day I knew I really...

As stated by someone else, Hawk's Nest is on RT #97 in NY, starting not far from Port Jervis. I usually ride it from Port Jervis to Hancock, NY There use to be a restaurant along the cliff called Hawk's Nest and used to be a real attraction for all local bikes. Sadly it burnt a couple years...
