        I keep going back to Bob's pic. At a glance the tail end of that bike looks like an apparition of sorts. I like how it just fades into the hillside.

        Baatfam for me.

          Voting for 2. See, I knew you guys could break the rules if you tried hard enough.
          I'm voting for rphillips and Rob S, and they didn't even play, Just kidding.

          I'm actually voting for Baatfam, not just for the photo, but because he let me borrow the bike for mine.

          Honorable mention to trevor, Of all your stories and pics with Wes, this is my favorite.

            Hey, thats Dale Dogma's 850 (850GK haa haa).
            Hey, thats Greg GBW White standing back there in line of bikes.

            Not a vote, but do like the pic. Interesting how I can recognise the bike and some people even though doesnt look like any rally place I have been to.
            But, I can quess, maybe the Sevens ride (not the whiskey, Robin's Seven States Seven Days).

                THanks for summation Bob. I took a look at the thread this morning, and I thought I had the wrong thread with all the discussion. (and then I had a schedule limitation and had to go).

                About the theme:

                I suppose we can have a discussion similar to other political/social discussion in past few years (decades) "well, if we allow that, then whats next" .


                But, hey, its a game, and we got some fun pics/stories.
                Like a Trevor Wess story that we havent heard before that was great. Even with Trevor Wess stories that have heard some of before, its all interesting and significant. ANd everytime makes me wonder what it would be like to now be honored/ recognized for something that had done in career 30-40 years ago.

                  Gustovh for me this week. I've ridden behind that bike & blue boots coming down from Mt St. Helens way back when.
                  Looks like a toasty unshady place to have a bike issue.
                  GS\'s since 1982: 55OMZ, 550ES, 750ET, (2) 1100ET\'s, 1100S, 1150ES. Current ride is an 83 Katana. Wifes bike is an 84 GS 1150ES

                    Oh.... voting......

                    Burque..... Bob.....

                    Bob..... Burque....

                    Roger Burque pic, it so well conveys the discovery, or at least I can imagine me taking that apart and being startled and saying "Hey, that stepper motor coils looks so much like zuki stator....." and the stepper motor coils is "not his bike". But did include a GS stator for comparison.
                    Vote for Roger Burque.

                      You beep, now you are the bad guy!

                      Or having to have uninsured motorist on your auto insurance policy. In case someone doesn't want to follow the rules.

                      2025... get use to it folks.
                      Wow. Comparing me to the a-hole on his phone at a green light. I'm really not that bad of a guy. Just ask my buddy Norm... Oh, wait. HAHA. Don't worry. Someone (not me obviously) will set us back on the straight-n-narrow tomorrow.

                          was on a 5 mile straight stretch from Pine Grove to Maupin. Was around 11am and 85 out not a cloud, on a Sunday. This stretch of road is where we used to do speed runs when I was a kid. Was doing one that day when Todd disappeared in my mirror. I pulled over and waited for Todd to come limping up sitting way back with a flat on the front.
