Decide to go on a ride today. I haven't been over to the Salmon river in the last few years as it was on fire the last 2 years. This area is really beautiful but it is in severe drought at the moment. This shot is at about 6000 ft above sea level.

Dropped into the river basin now. Much lower elevation now and hotter.

Bike looks great Charlie.
 
Lovely!
Just wondering, I'm sure people with weak lungs need to get out of town and far away from all the smoke.
 
40 mph!!! LOL Glad your having some fun!

40?....the speedometer stopped working after I got the scoot in the low 200 miles range. Its maybe traveled 300 miles in 51 years.... discounting its voyage from the Virgin Islands to the US....
We poked around at low speeds... at 40 its not happy...
I find it impossible to not smile riding it...
 
Went for a little evening ride to get ice-cream for my better half?.ended 1000ft out of my driveway..@#%$@$!%:mad: never got the ice-cream!
19 over in my own town 1 block from my house, I don't make a practice out of speeding especially in my own town right by my house, we all have kids and live in a VERY small town, CRAZY..said he radared me from the stop sign in front of my house and I accelerated to 44mph, I just don't know, I wonder if because he radared me from a dead stop accelerating if the radar gets a bit freaky, there is hardly 500ft from stop sign to stop sign on that street. He followed me until I got out of town before he hit the lights and pulled me over? Then my registration came up as canceled which it isn't so I have to straighten that out, I am assuming computer error...AND my insurance card showed expired, I didn't know I had to print out a new one every year. They just switch the laws here a few years ago for proof of insurance so its a bit new to me, this was the first time I was ever asked for it...It was like a perfect storm of stupidity?..



 
Fail Joe... Might be able to contest though if all your paperwork is legit.
 
Met up with a new acquaintance of mine (Bandit) and his buddy (78 KZ) for a ride along the coast line. Was dark and we didn't stop very often, so no real nice shots, but it was a ride nonetheless.

I went for a ride yesterday up around the Cleveland aria. I stopped to take a walk on the pier by the Rock Hall. I came back to find a parking ticket on my motorcycle! The front tire was in the parking zone, the rear was in a no parking zone. It's a $25 ticket... Them bastards!
 
Lovely!
Just wondering, I'm sure people with weak lungs need to get out of town and far away from all the smoke.

I don't know of anyone who does. With the air conditioner on and the house sealed up it's not bad. Hellof a way to live though. Third year in a row.
 
Wow, so no problem taking a pic of the cop?
I thought that riled them up?

AHH YA, the whole situation was riled up! I actually took a video because I thought the cop was being a bit over bearing.
At one point I demanded for him to arrest me because he wouldn't tell me why he pulled me over. He said he didn't have to tell me, He wouldn't let me see the radar gun either.
And like I said small-town, lived there 22years, same house, I know everyone, they know me. This cop is a part time employee there and the village is in the middle of trying to getting ride of the police force, the village board says we don't need one, Sheriffs are cheaper. They just fired the police chief who happens to be a friend of mine, so they have no Chief so I don't know who's in charge there, Im sure someone is.
It really sucked for both me and the cop, at one point I almost just drove away to to go home, but my senses are better than that.
All bad!
I am going to court with the tickets, I am registered and insured always have been.
 
2015 Poags Hole Hillclimb. we got quite a crew together this year. about 25 bikes (i lost count after 22). we gathered in warsaw and road the 40 mile ride to dansville, over the hill on rt. 436 (beautiful ride and views).


a good mix of old jap metal, rockets, 2 vmax's and a couple harleys (in case someone didn't hear us coming). the ktm's are really neat. my bike, the ugly, is just left of center.

I'm sold! If that ain't the real thing, it sure looks like it.
OK, is that Hitchcock's profile painted on the window plywood?
