Hans, great writing.

One day, one day I will be able to take a long cross country trip.

As always, beautiful writing my friend. There is something ethereal about a road trip on a bike that cannot be understood by those who have not experienced it. At times there is the comparison to banging one's head against a wall - it's wonderful to stop doing it! Yet there is something that keeps us doing it despite the fatigue, the aches and the pains.

I'm still savoring my annual road trip, meandering around Colorado with a vague plan to head to California in a few days. As my thoughts crystallize, I will try and write them down here, with a modicum of eloquence, that those thoughts may entertain and inspire.

Cheers, to my imaginary friends!

Mike and Terri,

Jackson, WY. for the night.

Jill, where in the hell did you go at NAFO? I saw you and Andy Thursday nite when I got in, and then you vanished! Did you take up with the bellhop?

Nope - didn't take up with the bellhop, although I can hardly express my gratitude to Toecutter for his duties, in whisking our saddlebags, tail bags, tank bags etc to our room. I felt like royalty, being welcome that way. That was SERVICE with a smile!

It was my intention to sit with my friend JB and discuss intellectual things, late into the night, or get very drunk, or both. Yet the time got away from us. Too many good people, not enough time.

Time to start planning the next CA get-together.

"...my petite cornichon..." Pretty dang flowery, er pickley, for a motorcycle forum!

But, I expect nothing less from Monsieur Burleigh! Great post as always. Thanks for sharing!

EDIT : I should never assume that a members screen name is a direct reflection of their actual name.

Sorry Hans

 

[FJRBluesman]

Excellent! You are quite talented to say the least in the arts.

 

[Dr. Rich]

You are quite the master of the language. Nice post and pictures.... Great to see you and Ray in Golden. Rich

And it still makes me laugh so hard; the Misses had to come down to see what all the noise is about.

Almost a year later and still a good read.

JB, you may have a classic here.
