    Got out this afternoon.
    Stayed fairly local.



    This photo shows the back half of this group that went past. The first few guys thought they were Marc Marquess or something.
    Sport bike group with back patches. Back half of the group was real loud. Could hear them for quite some time.

        Well I did today but that was just to work and back, however I haven't logged in for quite a while so I haven't posted about the annual Laverda Concours they have here which I attended with a few of the Katana Australia/GSR folk.

        I was using my work iPhone and somehow I seemed to have turned on some weird effect on the camera part way through the photos so some seem very bright and shiny when they shouldn't be...

            It was a great morning out with some good blokes looking at some nice bikes and I took a ride over our local Mt Nebo/Mt Glorious on the way down in the morning as well.

            One day I'll work out my video editing properly and post some videos with my new GoPro I got for my birthday too!

              Tried to go for a ride today with Trevor but didn't get very far........



              She asked me what we 'thought' we were doing, I said "95?" ...wrong...116 kms. Not too bad really considering. Very nice RCMP officer and let us both off with a warning. This was the first time I had been pulled over in Canada since I got back into the bikes 8 yrs ago, not bad. I kept trying to figure out where she came from, turns out she came up behind us..who ever looks behind???? A good day indeed, we're going to go out and buy some lottery tickets now

                Good stuff Rob, glad to see you're getting the hang of this ticket thing. Now you'll just have to see how it goes getting pulled over for 100+mph.

                  I know, I know..there's been plenty of times we've been going a 'tich' faster, I guess it's just blind luck. I tell you though, this will be the first rally in BC and our cops are a bit different than the state troopers I think, and with our 40km over impound rule. I'm just going to remember not to be lead I suppose we'll have to draw straws or something for who will be the sacrificial lamb each ride.

                    Did you flutter your eye lashes at her Rob? That how you got away with it?....
                    It's smoke that make electronic components work.
                    Every time I've let the smoke out by mistake, they never work again.

                      We used the "get your helmet off as quick as you can to show your grey hair" rule.
                      Funny Sandy we were both saying how we didn't want to go into this years rally with a speeding ticket. None for both of us on a bike.

                        I think it because I was on this bike last night.

                            Rob,

                            I think it's the company you are keeping. Riding with that new fangled Beamer is bound to attract the wrong kind of attention. I'd only ride with that blue GSX 1100 if I were you. I'm a firm believer in the "Flash the Grey Hair" technique.

                              Went on my first Poker Run today! What a blast! Put 154 miles on her. Went up to Marblehead Ohio so i had to stop just to get a pick with the little old GS450L with the lighthouse. She did just fine keeping up with all them HD's I think at one point they had a hard time keeping up with this little 450! LOL!
