This stranger did NOT ask permission to sit on my bike.
I didn't think I needed to. But that's ok. I see where we stand now...
I didn't say I was mad about it. Even spyders [sic] have to live somewhere, right. AFAIK, he still lives on the "Z". As long as he doesn't bite or have all his friends over for crazy parties, I'm good with sharing. Hasn't ponied up a dime in gas money yet, though. Freeloader.
I bought a GS 650 from a fellow in Reno who's discription in his Craigs list add read as follows: " rolled this bike out of the garage out of the garage where it has sat for 6 years, killed the 2 Black Widows, and after priming, it sputtered to a rough idel."
Not sure if this qualifies...I just got back from riding my Cooley to California....almost 6000kms
Anyway I have been to the MotoTalbott motorcycle museum before and wanted to take my friends...unfortunatly the museum was going to be closed on the day we would be in Monterey....so months ago I emailed the owner Robb Talbott (of Talbott Clothiers and Vineyards) to see if he would open up for us...to my surprise he said yes and gave us a private tour...this was me meeting him for the first time....
If it doesn't qualify no biggie....love the pic!

Good morning all,
No entry for me this week.... no pics on file, plus I didn't even get out for a ride.... boo.....
Voting for Trevor... it looks like the gentleman is spinning a good yarn about the old days.
Redman's is pretty humorous. Not sure what's going on there, but it almost looks like an attempt at salemanship.....

Fun theme gustovh. Technically, not the best photo. It's overexposed and soft, but voting for Dave Redman this week anyway. It's hard to get a well composed candid shot of someone, let alone a stranger, AND your bike. I really like this shot. Well done Dave. You even pulled off your signature reflection motif capturing a passing car in the fairing.
I found this theme particularly challenging. I had two good opportunities yesterday, but didn't have the nerve to grab the camera concerned I may embarrass these folks.
First, an Autozone employee came out to test my battery. He saw the bike and said "WOW, how old is this thing?" We chatted for a minute or two, he tested the battery and back to the store he went.
The second was the cart shagger at WalMart. He had a mechanized cart pusher thing and pulled up next to where I parked. "I think yours is faster" he said. I thought about offering to race for titles, but wondered how I'd ride that thing home, LOL.
I like Redman's shot this week.

Nice to see Stator again.
Sandy gets my vote.
