spidy. Tks for the effort. I dont know if you accessed the site that you refered to but that puts you onto a firm in Italy selling the specific products. It will be much better dealing with someone in english. I still got 18 months in Germany left before I go back to South Africa, and there is still a couple things I would like to do the X1. Double disc up front, Aircleaner and maybe also the rear caliper plus underslung bracket on that. Are you also going to Bonneville, I do envy all who can manage to attend. Eugene |

Few new pics I scanned this morning: The Buells at the Wheat Field, Gettysburg, PA Devil's Den, also in Gettysburg. The Park Service didn't think too highly of the bikes parked in the bike rack. But Sir, it is a bike rack. This was taken along the Mississippi River in Davenport Iowa. Check out that shiny aircleaner!

Great photos. I get all solemn and reflective every time I think about Gettysburg. Over 50,000 casualties, including over 5,700 dead in three days. The place literally flowed red with blood. Picket's charge... uphill across a mile of open field to the fortified union line replete with artillery... What the hell was Lee thinking!! That was pure insanity. So sad. I've stood and wept among the small group of trees still standing on Cemetery Ridge, the group of trees towards which Lee directed Picket to aim the point of his charge. |

Not sure how many of you have had the opportunity of meeting Ferris Buller back in the PACBOG days. During those days Ferris traveled with this great little photo album of pictures that had been taken during his many Buelling adventures and he also loved letting all that wanted to see, thumb through the album. Ferris has been kind enough to loan me this very prized photo album for a little project I am working on. Here is a few of my favorites that I have scanned so far. Hope you don't mind Ferris, they are too good not to share again!

Kyuss, It's not all on one trip. My "home" is Hanover, PA, about 15 miles south east of Gettysburg. I'm a college student, go to school at Kettering University in Flint Michigan, currently working as a co-op student at the John Deere Davenport Works in Davenport IA. Unfortunately, I don't get to ride the whole way. I have a nice little utility trailer that I throw the Buell on and tow behind my '91 Olds Calais. I should post a pic of that... I think the bike would probably pull the car a bit easier! I miss being back east with the good road to ride, and I'm missing the BRAG Poconos adventure as well. It's right in my backyard. |

Hope you don't mind Ferris, they are too good not to share again! post away, my milk-drinkin' friend, it's just too bad i didn't send you the R-rated photo album pic #1 above: my '96 S2 Thunderbolt, the BLURR, taken at sunset just west of Washington's Mount Rainier, near the spot where the famous Rainier Beer motorcycle commercial was filmed. sharp-eyed viewers may remember this photo, in black-and-white, from a Thunder Press of several years back in conjunction with a piece i did called "Three Volcanos". pic #2: taken by Jim "Iron Butt" Towslee, from his "Buell XL" 1200 Sportster, on I-90 in Montana, during one of our trips to Sturgis. look ma, no hands! yep, we were bored, in spite of Montana's (at the time) "Reasonable and Prudent" speed "limit". pic #3: taken at sunset on the old, narrow bridge that crosses over to Raft Island, just outside Gig Harbor, WA, the culmination of a ride which inspired a piece for Sportbike USA called "Getting Lost".

Favorite Ride: The road to Paradise in Washington, and all around MT Rainier. Hootowl, now i see why you're so interested in that Mount Rainier pic! did you used to live up there? have to agree, spending a day carving up this volcano (Paradise, Ohanapecosh, Sunrise, etc.) is mighty tasty, which is EXACTLY what i'd done that day. i was born in Morton, so that area has always felt like home. i'm assuming you've done a lap or two of St. Helens also? best, FB ps: any volcanos in Texas? (besides Blake, that is... ) |

Ferris, Yeah, I was born in Seattle, lived there until I joined the Navy, was stationed on Nimitz in Bremerton, then Abraham Lincoln in Everett with some shore duty in San Diego in between. So you could say I've spent some time there. Never made a SPLASH though. I moved to Texas when I got out because my wife got a job with Spacehab at the Johnson Space Center. No volcanoes here, but there's some killer roads a few hours away on the Southwest side of Austin. It's flatter than road kill here in Houston. |
