Some times development takes you in unexpected directions.

True that!

On the way to work this morning....just something about riding deserted country roads the day after a spring rain.

Moving up to 1200 ride with daughter



And grandson puts some parts back on the 1200 - not the clutch, Grampa did that, just installing the case cover. Yes, he followed up with a torque wrench! 5 years old here.


That had to be an amazing experience for you. None of my kids ride - but maybe some day. I'm guessing it will be one of my grand kids that gets the same bug their old grey beard pappaw has had for 40 years.

Last night went to opening night of Bike Night on Beale Street.

Lot's of bikes, good food, fun people watching.





That looks like fun!

This was taken October 2015. My father and I had just finished this 1964 Servi-Car restoration and this was the first show for it at Barber Vintage Festival. 1964 H-D Servi-Car, 45" flathead, 12 volt, electric start. This was the first year for 12 volt and electric start on any of the Harley's. This bike is restored back to factory original. The paint is Hi-Fi blue and birch white, paint colors available in 1964.

Oh yeah, the bike took first place in it's class.

Kevin,

I stopped at your place in Red Banks about a month ago. I'm a Mississippi boy, born in Greenville, raised in Vicksburg, and went to MSU. I had a couple days off, the weather was great so I made a road trip for MSU cheese.

Spring has sprung here, and it's gonna get a lot greener!

Today is sunny, 80*... a beautiful day to be riding, and I've been stuck in the office all day!
