    Now that would have been cool. I would have liked that. Enough that I might have washed the blue off.

    The sad thing is that I have put about 1500 miles on it and the rubber tits are still on it. Hardly any wear as of yet. I will have that ugly tire until the day I die....

          You guys didn't happen to come across this bridge, near Harrison (?) did you?



          The 2000 XS11 rally was based out of Eureka Springs. Lots of good riding in the area.

          BTW, those boards make an interesting "rumbling" sound as you ride over them.

            There has been a TV show on that bridge before. Very interesting.

              No, we didn't go across that... but I'd like to know where it was so I could next time. We'll send Russ across first though to make sure it's safe. If it doesn't hold... he has an extra bike, and he honestly could use a bath anyway.

                Bob Jones Rally 2010?

                I recently became the proud owner of a Bob Jones 1100SF and would love the chance to talk to other owners about their bikes and about Bob, I never got the chance to meet him. Any plans for another rally?
