Hi Scott,
Yeah, long time, no see. I guess I was asleep at the wheel concerning this new forum--over 700 beat me to it! I couldn't make the College Station ride because I knew I would be worn out from a trip to western Canada I made from July 16th through the 27th. Rode 2,400 miles in 10 riding days on some of the best motorcycling roads I have ever been on--it was a cosmic experience. I was on a 2005 Triumph Sprint ST--not a bad bike--I would put it between my Interceptor and FJR. Light weight and good handling for extremely twisty roads. Not nearly as much power as the FJR, but what is? I'll tell you all about the trip the next time I see you.
Haven't really been riding much around here lately--either too hot or raining and work has been keeping me from making Hamburger Wednesday. Let's try to get together for a ride soon. I'm keeping the October College Station trip in mind and I definitely want to do a Hill Country ride in November. I'm sure we can count on Groo40, FJRMike, Kyote, McRuss, Sanderjavant, FJRBandit, and others to participate. Are you listening guys?
