TR.......actually I don't think Craig was with us when we made that ride out at your place. I've ridden along side Craig at NPR, but not on street/dirt.......yet. Craig, as soon as I can catch ya'll riding while I'm home off the rig, I'll be there!! Putting some TKC's (knobbies) on it when I get home to help keeping up with those KLR's.

When I took that first picture, I had just turned 750 miles on the GS. It was on a ride with Weave out to Red Bluff. Now, it's got over 33k on the clock 18 months later.

Leaning towards another R-model? Or undecided yet.

Actually it will probably be something much smaller and trail oriented. Christy and I are looking to buy some property and I will want two wheels to run around on it with. When I get another touring bike it will be big and comfortable enough for her to ride with me......probably a Goldwing.

Funny. While I was typing my question, I was thinking, "What with the missus and all I bet he gets a 'wing." :D

Starting up two new jobs in a year tends to take all your time. Figured I would check back in and see what the village idiots have been up too. LOL. Thanks for the welcome back Driz... LOL
