Sweep truck? :whistle:

Couple hours to the starting line for me -- probably can't swing the time. Tucson/Globe is a great ride.

All but one wimped out..... So Phillip and I went up to Payson for breakfast, nice 68*F weather, then back down the hill to Phoenix 100*F...

Both bikes ran phenomenally especially in the cooler weather, had some nice twisties, hit a couple spots at 105mph! SCHWING! ... Yes I did get a woody!

Had some on lookers who where interested in the old girl asking what she had on the inside... Commented, looks sweet! Then they added to my bud, Oh yeah, nice VFR as well... We all laughed including my bud....

So it wasn't what we had in mind but enjoyed the cool morning ride just the same.... Any day ride is better than doing honey do's...

The VFR had a hard time keeping up at mid range! The VFR doesn't kick in till about 6000rpm, while I was attacking at 4500rpms and gone... pissed my bud off... :laugh: so he had to really twist the throttle at that point to catch up... I received numerous "Flipped Bird" hand gestures from my bud today.....

Oh well, I'll try and get a posting out a week or so early for those here.... Doesn't matter what you ride, including HD so come one, come all...

Nice having some mountains to run in just out of town innit.

Looks like a fun ride.

Have been eyeballing the ways to Mono Lake from Tracy this weekend. May be an iron butt one day trip. Wonder how many folks (friends) I can interest in a long trek through Yosemite.

Better to be shot out of a cannon then squeezed through a tube. - HST
