I just wanted to tell everyone that we had a great time: my brother, my cousin and my brother in law, who had a pretty bad crash yesterday in Eureka Springs. Sam's Goldwing was totaled as was the half ton pickup he ran into. He broke a Co toe on his left foot, a two inch laceration above his right thumb needed stitches, a large bruise and raspberry on his right hip. the worst thing was that he had a kidney stone break loose that he finally passed today. Other than all that he's really in pretty good shape and getting around pretty well.
I would really like to comend Mike, aka Ski, for without his help this would have been a much worse ordeal. Mike offered to use his van, while towing his motorcycle, to transport Sam back to Enid, Oklahoma.
Thank you so much, Mike![/QUOTE]
Sorry to hear it, prayers for recovery and a new wing.
Well Hanso, the honor to meet will be mine alone. My presence will be anti climactic. There is light snow falling on the peaks of the mountains here tonight but we have a FULL day of riding ahead and that I am looking forward to doing. God's speed and safe travel.
made it home safe an sound guys.
Had a BLAST seeing old friends and making new ones...
Would have stayed longer, but was missin' my wife,
and she was stayin' home doin' all the chores by herself.
(I gotta have a long hard talk with the son an son-in-laws......)
Anyway, had a great time, jus' wanted ya'll to know I made it.
Ya'll ride safe,
skip
i just pulled into maggie valley... found a parking spot behind the gun shop on the way into town (shedd's hunting supply)... it's a bit chilly, but i'm gonna unload the scoot and have a poke around town...
and i'm paying for a full rv hookup, so if anyone is coming up and can't find a room (thunder something or other this weekend here) i have a spare bed and you won't have to take a submarine style shower...
update: unloaded and iced tea brewing on the windshield... drop on by... and there's a guy with a rocket parked right behind me at the park... he's all excited that he's going to get to see some other rockets on the road for once...
