Back at the crib, safe & sound - I even stopped and warshed the bike in Great Barrington - no - really - I mean it. It actually looks pretty good. There was a dirty rag in the trash that really cut right through the grime.
Another great rally, thanks to the hospitality of Rob & Aunt Cathy and all those smiling faces perched aboard motorsicles. My thanks to all for a great time.
Had a fantastic ride home over 101 to 9 to 8. 101 and 9 are as smooth as any road I've ever seen. Route 8 was, um, not. ;-) but still a lot of fun. The wind turbine farm at Searsburg, VT was a pleasant surprise. I almost rode the dirt trail in to see 'em up close, but I was missing my wife and dawgie, and so turned back to the asphalt. All told, (or is it tolled?) I bet I rode a total of 15 to 20 minutes of rain all weekend - a mighty paltry price to pay for such a great time.
New York Rally is on the horizon. Hey Ed, since you have so much free retired mutha------ time, maybe you could pop over to the campsite and let me know if they have any proper sleepin' chairs, so's I don't have to tote one along. Gotta get all the beauty rest I can.
