Someone else will have to post the roundup today. I’m out of town, on my phone. Can’t figure out if Vince meant to post a pic or not.

Even though technically “on vacation” til next Monday, I rode to the office today for annual Christmas Eve Lunch and to receive ham we get every year. Treated the Tiger to a mud bath on some mountain roads, then a good wash. Was crisp but sunny so a nice little ride.
Merry Christmas all. This pic will have to do unless I get any surprises in my stocking tonight.

My son got this engine guard for me. A lot less worry about breaking something important when I tip over. Which happens with this bike for some reason....

At the beach for holiday, the next ten days….Merry Christmas everybody!

My first thread on here was 30/12/2021, been looking at the bike for a while dealing with the owner, buying a bike in another country sight unseen. My son finally wrestled my XS650 from my hands, had a couple of $'s to spare, hole in my pocket actually, and I wanted to have a vehicle to ride round when I visited in NZ. Also something to work on together in the bike shed when I visited.
Crappy Pic, (slightly edited) of the bike pics the PO sent me. She was a school teacher.

As it was around Christmas time here is my entry

..................... gift. Christmas, birthday, whatever....

Grandson about 2014 (he is 14 now) on a toy bike that I gave to his dad 30some years prior.

I s'pose you cant tell from the photo that it is/was a gift.
Thats okay, I aint trying to win anymore.

That is a Kidosaki KZ002.
(I had a KZ400 at the time.)
Justin really liked that little bike.
He "ran the wheels off it", well, actaully rode it till the axle wore thru the body till the body was scraping on the ground.
I then made some "bearings" for the axle by popriviting some washers to sheetmetal and then popriviting the sheetmetal to the body. And he rode it more.

Recreation of that photo when grandson about 1 year old, about 2012.

It’s all good. I’m happy for the participation.

Good Saturday morning, all. Time to tally the votes:
Carter Turk - 2
Eli69 - 2 (counting 650Skull's late vote, I think it was actually Sunday where he is )
Redman - 2
Baatfam - 4

Looks like Bob is the clear winner with the Creepy Cabin in the woods. A second pair of eyes would be welcome.
But I think I can safely call it. Whatcha got for us for Christmas Week, Bob?

In my defence, if the votes haven't been tallied I vote. + - I don't care.

[Baatfam]

Thanks for doing the vote totals, Rich. I was avoiding it because I saw where it was heading.
And thanks for the votes guys.

Christmas week. How about a favorite gift. Christmas, birthday, whatever....
I've used this before, but I still remember that day.

Baatfam. Doesn't the Blair Witch live there?

[Rich82GS750TZ]

Baatfam for me. Always liked the tone of that pic. Creepy.
