Frank, thank you for posting the pictures of the roadside memorial. I had not seen the other items as I place my flowers on Friday before the ride. The flowers were from me and Greg's sister and family. I have no idea who put the ballons, banner and sprinkled flowers there. It is beautiful and I would like to thank the people who did it. If anyone knows, please let me know. I will go by there tomorrow to see it in person. Frank, that was one of Greg's favorite places to ride too. |

Dana, I think whoever did place the balloons used the sign post to the right as the "one" in 831. There was a small photo of Greg on the sign post as well. Glad you guys had a good time. Frank |

Sounds fun Tim. I have an out of town guest in for our high school reunion (won't say how many years) this weekend so I will miss it. I didn't know you had a 64 Olds. I would like to see a pic of it. WCC guys I want to thank you again for the birthday gift certificates. I used them yesterday towards bags for the Lightning. Yeah! |

Knocked the wind out of my sails today. I bought the Buell rather than a Duacti or BMW because it was a cool bike, american company and was owned by HD thinking support would be available almost everywhere. Now my two Pontiacs and Oldsmobile will have company. I do not know how I missed buying a Saturn and Hummer. I must be lucky. |

How should we react to this as a group? |

If HD continues to sell parts and select shops continue service, I say ride! We have no control over the situation so why worry? The bike that was rare will now be rarer. |

Tim, I heard on the radio news this morning about a car jacking on Chicago expressway last night. It described a '65 Buick that stopped to investigate some mechanical noises, a van pulled over to help (haha) and they ended up car-jacking the ride. |
