So we all made it in one piece and only some minor burns (McGoo) and the bikes are all still in one piece. Only a few pics here but plenty more to come. The weather was amazing and the roads were horrible. 70+ on roads that are at best smooth like cobble stone makes for some crazy riding styles and sometimes ya think your trail riding. I know I have a different style but riding standing on your pegs thru pot hole infested blacktop slop feels somewhat like whoops just try and skip across the tops and keep the front end up. I now a rigid frame is just stupid through some of that but I don't know that a plush swingarm would really do much for ya on some of those craters! Thanks to all that came and here are just a few pics from the sober seconds.
