Should be easy to spot if we ever share the road. I hope you share some of your trips with us in the future, if not in person then here on the forum. Be safe and enjoy.

Thanks RK! No riding this past weekend due to frickin monsoon weather here in Missouri. Now we have Tropical Storm Bill sitting over the top of us dumping more rain on our heads. If only we could save some of this rain for August when everything dries up. I sure hope our paths cross someday so I can shake your hand in person.
Dave, Lesli, and Thelma.
