Ditto here Bullit. That's a fine looking machine and nothing was left to chance.
Stay at it, I will be in Orangeville on May 15th waiting to see it.

i AM THE KING OF NOTHING
the people here are great , doesn't matter about the bike really/hamjam ////
I have both saturdays and sundays both half done. Saturday will take us up to the screaming heads( yes you can google that) And sunday will take you to a road the sportbikers ride half a day to get here just to ride this road. (Rick knows what I am talking about)
I will still need to ride drive these routes for distances between gas stops, and where the heck they all are.

Yes, Rick knows exactly what Tom's talking about.
I wrote a long description of "The Road" but decided it would be better to let everyone experience it for themselves.
To say I was thrilled with it would be an understatement. Kind of like an actual reality video game.
Thx BDF
