Ditto, she's a beauty. Certainly a "big grin" full. Enjoy!

Very photogenic. Too bad the doc's couldn't catch those hip tumors in their infancy.

Out of those six shots it's hard to pick a favorite but this one perhaps tops the cake. She just looks sooooo... ready to pounce. Beautiful!!!

So what DID happen to the Beemer? Is it dust-covered at the back of the stable? 
Well - I'm still having fun with my old T400. But those new Adventure Cubs sure do look interesting! And by 2012 it'll be just about run-in perfectly.

I really like the Tiger in that black there, Johann!  (...of course, with your photography skills, you could probably make even those Paul Smith Bonneville "Specials" of a few years back look reasonably good in a photograph, ol' buddy!!!) Enjoy that beautiful new bike o' yours!
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
