I didnt make it home. Becuase im still on vacation. Rode that bitch from the mountains to the sea in the pouring rain all day with a bald tire..lol

Lunch at Coal House BBQ. Then the fun part of 119, then 421, 80 and 550. Hammer down on 550 I see a deer running up the hillside....so I shut it down hard figuring there are more....and signal everyone behind me. Crest the hill and there is a doe and her few days old fawn in the middle of the road. Full on ABS...the fawn freezes so I dove right. That moved the fawn left where it froze again and found itself staring at the front tire of an MT10 that stopped 2 feet short of it. That fawn should now understand the value of ABS. I know Jamie and I do. So we start to accelerate and are still going slow and around the corner comes a cop. So we saved that fawns life, and it for sure saved us tickets. Win win.

The bubbys on the new section of the foothills.

When it's your time, it's your time... I've always wondered if those who are struck by lightning and survive think about the fact that they were as likely to get struck by lightning as they are to winning the lotto... and that they got struck by lightning.

If you want one sooner lmk, you can take her for a spin on the back. She will insist you get one.

Couldn’t agree more. Pretty much decided during this trip that the Goldwing is my retirement bike. And maybe I’ll own one a little earlier than that, considering the wife enjoys riding two-up.

So Jim's Wing is amazing. Its light years ahead of the whale. So stable in the corners and clearly enough power. It looks great and pretty darn sleek considering it has three hards cases the passenger seat has arm rests. Nice bike man, ride the hell out of it.

Looking good Jim. Such a great bike too!

When you get back on your feet (pun intended) we can get together and you can take it for a spin. But don't ride it unless you are prepared to buy one.

Home, great run and very glad I did it. Love the Wing even more than before. Flawless in the rain, I did not slip once. Not once. Fast as hell in the twisties and effortless to pilot. When I didn't have the fuel range challenged with me I was pulling 160 miles easily before I felt like stopping.

Our first ever 2 up pic on the dragon. Hopfully killboy has some better ones.

Based upon the photographic evidence, you are holding a grom up.
