Twisted has been in Journeys since the beginning of it, 5 short years ago... His daughter was killed in a car crash today...
Dan... this one is for you and her...
a picture you liked back in 2016... taken at the Rogers Pass from Darla's first Journey.

In a couple of weekends I’m going to be renting a car and driving up to Cranbrook… I’ll pick up my ElectraGlide and riding for the weekend up there… And then spend a couple of days coming home back to Langley via the West Kootenays with an overnight stay in Revelstoke…
I don’t think the Border is going to open this year until very late… So my touring will probably be riding from Langley to Cranbrook once a month to spend a weekend at work… Robin is going to do a full tuneup on Darla just before I get there, so it should be good to go for the summer… If I can get 10,000 miles in this year I’ll be happier than a pig in poop…
On Sunday, which was Mother’s Day… I took Adrienne across the street to her mothers garden plot… Met some friends of hers, put some flowers down… And then I went and picked up supper from Adrienne and her mothers favourite restaurant and we had a nice Sunday meal…
I talked Adrienne into keeping the plot… Her mother had a lot of friends who worked in the garden area with her, and they are going to maintain it… they planted a special bush for her in the general area…

small change of plans... for personal and business reasons, I wont be heading up to pick up the Eglide until mid June now... on another note, my right wrist seems to be a bit buggered... so I cannot ride the Pan... I have someone interested in it, so might let it go... hate to see it just sitting there, it is a riders motorcycle... and to that end, I am seriously looking at a Recluse clutch for Darla... that would help a lot, with the cruise control and the foot brake, it would make my hours in the saddle much more comfortable.

I ordered the Rekluse clutch… And will have it installed by Robin before I go to pick it up in the middle of June… It doesn’t appear that my wrist is getting any better… And I have a motorcycle I want to ride...

I thought it was the throttle you were having a problem with.

Both wrists & forearms... screwed them up 25+ years ago... truck driving... when I was at its worst I couldn’t even tie my own shoes or cut my own meat… It’s gotten somewhat better over the years, but I have to be careful… So a Rekluse clutch & cruise control makes a lot of sense for me… Especially taking in account I’m pushing 70, and do not want to give up motorcycling... U do whatcha gotta do.
