Steve- Sorry I missed it - was planning to go to Wisconsin this year, but this season has been pretty strange... |

All is good. You guys should see my property now, excavator, front loader...looks like we're building a motocross track!!! Actually, it's a storm water remediation project. Tired of having our property flooded out. Next year you guys will again have bushes to pee behind |

First shots from the museum. NOT S2-T No. 1, just a 1995 S2 with glow in the dark lightning bolt paint:
Actually, S2-T No. 1:

RSS 1200 - first pic with our tour guide Keith Ulicki:
I've always loved the RSS tail as it inspired me (with experienced help) to make the solo seat tail for my S2.

Written artifact in the museum:
History - the previous Uke's location (where Keith put the hook in my mouth, errr... where he sold me my 1995 S2):
We rode the elevator up to the museum, but as we came down the stairs it was apparent that our visit was special. Thanks to Steeleagle for making the arrangements! And the T-shirts, too...

Some other random pics from the rest of my HOMEcoming visit. Ooooh, billet! On the SX Beta:
Steeleagle attempting to bring back the 90's trends?!?!
Sticker seen on street sign near the lakefront. The beaches were pretty crowded... NO, I did not install the sticker.
Since the races were not open to spectators, I took advantage of the weekend to hang out with some old friends. I missed Gus's cruise night, but did find one in Oak Creek:
Some lawn art in Cudahy:
Some of the attendees might remember last years "exhibition of speed" on the Hoan Bridge:
My last pic is from my first gas stop on my trip back to NC - where my headlight fuse decided to give up the ghost upon me attempting to get back on the road. Thank goodness for spares!

I agree with what Blake said. Thanks to you 1313 for all you did, over the years, to make Homecoming and more importantly BMC, the legacy it is today. Like i say in my profile, i've never owned any bike that handles as good as a Buell!

Yes, the bridge race. Glad my vehicle had a turbo. It's hard to make the lights when you're last!! Thanks for the pics Brankin, very cool. |
