My wife keeps telling me that I am too wild for my age, but I continue to disagree.

And yes, I was joking about the vampire thing. Everyone's eyes are reflecting the flash.
I saw that....really the invitation is sincerely meant as the riding is quite good here. It would be great to have some of you come for a visit. The MC clubs here get along and there are many enjoyable rides to be had.

The club is "MC Neretva". Neretva refers to the Neretva river that runs thru Mostar.

....another plus is that things are relatively inexpensive here as the dollar to mark exchange is about 1.5 marks per dollar.

To put that in a perspective we all understand, how many marks to buy a beer or shot of whiskey?

In the phote we have guys who came from Serbia. They have a "14" patch in the middle of the their vest. The others have artistic rendition of a bike crossing a bridge . Yhe guys from Serbia are an extended chapter but have no direct ties to Mostar so we created a unique center patch for them. The others of us either live in or near Mostar or have a connection with the Neretva or Mostar. Mostar is known for a historic bridge and Mostar translates as "old bridge" . Oh...and the "14" stands for the letter "N" for Neretva whch is the 14th letter oin the alphabet.

Well a friend of mine also an American has a bar here knon as the Black Dog Pub...he charges 2.5 marks for a beer, whiskey 3-4 marks. However if here you must try Rakija whic is a brandy often home distilled made from grapes, plums, apples etc which is quite good , plentiful and can be had socially for very little 1 mark or offered for free.

Anyone know how my status just changed from a "Regular" to a "Senior Rider"?
