    Ron, Larry, Great post and story.
    Apparently Larry, you trailered both your bikes to there so could have GS rides and new bike rides.

      Hey, I have something of a ride tommorow.
      300+ miles to there one way, and then back . . . but with van & trailer . . . to retrieve/rescue Justin Redmanson.

      He went there Thursday, but made over 400 mile ride of it to get to Sault Saint Marie.
      Then did 1000 mile loop around Lake Huron on Friday.
      Then 1000 mile loop around Lake Superior today. (Iron Butt crazy stuff.)
      ANd now tire that was kinda close to wear bars is showing cords ....opps.....
      He is embarrassed, maybe I should not be telling on him.
      I'll not harass him, er, um, not too much anyway.

        Morning ride yesterday.
        Not much of a story, but like the picture I got with morning sun shining in about same direction I am looking. Then went out for breakfast.

        Oh, there is something of a story.
        Wasnt anybody walking the channel walkway, and no activity in parking lot, so I backed bike down the inclined walkway (more of a parking lot drain way).
        Took a few pictures. ANd then rode back up to the parking lot, and in other corner of parking lot was a guy sitting in state conservation department officer car. Opps.
        But I figure from the elvation difference and the dune grass, he probably could not have seen me, he was looking out at the pier anyway, and I didnt seem to get his attention at all.
        So I parked bike in parking lot and went for walk out on the pier (cant see this pier in this pic, is behind that tree). On way back the guy still sitting there, and he was quite chatty. He said he was there to do random survey of counting boats going out and in, and count fishermen on pier, and survey the fishermen as to what they were catching. And that he did these surveys for the fisherys department and had zero law enforcment duties.

                I'm headed up to Bedford Indiana today to see if the Brown County Rally is still going on. Sure hope I'm not too late. Surely there must be a few stragglers still there.

                    Got the FJR back together on Father's day and rode for a while with my son. He rode it last weekend and yesterday I got it out for a little while. Sure is nice to have it back on the road after his mishap last year.

                    No pics of yesterday's ride, but this was Father's day.

                      Made it to Bedford and wouldn't you just know that it started raining as soon as I hit the city limits. I mean c'mon, what's a trip to Bedford without rain.
                      I can't really complain though as it was just a drizzle. Actually felt good and then the sun came out and the humidity shot through the roof.

                            Consider it done. He had me sign the back of the hotel replica that Scott presented to him. It's on full display at the front desk.

                            Edit: nice work Scott.

                                Unfortunately, I didn't get any pics of our two old GS1000s. We put a couple hundred miles on them and they ran like they did back in 78 and 79. Well close anyway.
