      Something like that...

      This forum is as high tech as I can manage at this point in my life.

      No, the camera didn't come with the bike, but it may as well have, both operate at my current technical ability-If I can't push the button and make it go, I need help.

        Once you go digital, you can do stuff like this. Here, check out the pix from XSEast Pocono rally. When you get the page loaded up, click on "slideshow" in the upper right.

          You are an evil man to tease me like that!

          I can't spend a bazillion dollars on a camera right now-I have a motorcycle in the hospital-LOL!

          Besides, then I might become one of those annoying people I used to see at Disneyland all the time-camera around my neck, shooting eye-daggers at everyone that steps into my shot!!!
          Yeeeesh!

          And I can still do this:


          The bike prior to the 'OR'-Don't look like that now!

              I already did when I first signed up for this site. What a transformation!!! You must've worked your tailfeathers off on that to get it to what it is now.
              I got the valves today-I only needed one, but I got the whole set-Thanks, Andreas!!!-we're going to Laconia tomorrow(wither...)but I'll drop them off on Friday, along with the lower ends of the forks. It should be back to me soon....

              Picture me riding...riding...riding....

                The latest..

                So,....What's the plan?

                Time?
                Meeting place?
                Schedule of events-coffee?; lunch; other?

                It's been quiet here...I'm making some noise!!!

                Keep your fingers crossed that I have the bike going....



                Thanks.

                    Damn, is there any place you and Sally haven't been? I'm half expecting to see one of those little blue road signs one of these days:

                    "the Ambrose's were here" and here, and there....

                    hey, look out, they're comin' up behind you real fast!

                      Actually we were there with this crazy bunch last week:


                      Brent, Ralph and Tracy, me and Sally.

                      Brent's the one who's signs will be all over the North American continent.

                        It's impossible to keep up with you lugnuts, but i'm gonna keep tryin'

                        OK, here's my itinerary for Aug 9:

                        Leaving Merrick, NY at 8:00 for the 10:00 Orient Point ferry to New London, CT.

                        Russ, we'll be arriving at New London dock at 11:30.

                        Lunch at Mystic Pizza 12:00

                        4:00 ferry back to Lawng Island.

                        That's all I've planned for now, maybe a side trip to the Seaport between lunch and 4:00? Don't know, the Seaport admission is $20, the ferry is $27 one way, this is a pricey day trip!

                            Bumping it up?

                            Is it going to be sooner?
                            It sounds like fun.
                            The bike is ready to go, and I'm not far behind...

                              Sounds good. We could also do the Nautilus Sub tour. It's right off 95 in New London. http://www.ussnautilus.org/index.html
                              I'm up for anything though. Or we could go to the Casino and put $20 in the slots.
