          On the way home, I took my grandson around my old stomping grounds. Yes it was my high school way back when.

            Vince, Jesse, Gus,
            That was my first suspicion. And you told your grandson all the storys.
            Great trip with your grandson.

                Vince is my name, Jesse is my son, I stole his name patch from his coat, Gustov was my renaissance game name.

                I told a few stories that is true, and it was a great trip. Not without trials though, woke up the second morning to a flat on the rear at Camp Sherman, 20 miles from Sisters, found a pump and the tire held air enough to find a bike shop 70 miles away just outside of Madrass and the second air museum. Nice shop, run by vets and gave a veterans discount to this old goat. Turns out the leak was on the wheel hub side of the tube, can't figure that one out.

                          My buddy Brian and I blasted 600 miles out to Cleveland Ohio. Loads of run, mostly interstate. I'll be flying solo tomorrow and have a pretty awesome route planned out.

                              That looks GREAT for 200k. You must really keep after it.
