I can't wait until next time...

I know what you mean Bill, my nice new black fork legs look like one of those turkey hunters stood in front of my bike and let 'er rip with a magazine full of buckshot! I guess I should be used to losing a headlight each time that I go to Arkansas, I mistakenly thought that a 1/8" lexan shield in front of the light would protect it. Wrong! :lol:

Bill Dragoo also has a cool article in Adventure Motorcycle/Dual Sport Nnews magazine, June edition. It's about his adventures (miss-adventures?) riding with Jeff Gaston aka: jeffro, during the April Fools Ride.
Name of the article is: "Say No To Jeffro"

I do not have the ability to link it here, maybe one of you do? It's well worth a read, a keeper.

Well,
I'm not really sure if I agree with scanning on web pages magazine articles that are for sale. Especially an article written by a friend and published by a magazine that supports our sport.

I'll think about it.

But you can go here: http://www.dualsportnews.com/recent.html and order the June edition for 5 bucks. Or subscribe.

I'm prepping to drive out west to ride lab2v this year, I'll be driving back Mid January.
I wouldn't mind hitting a trail on the way back if it ain't too cold 8)

I was also just thinking, April is only like 5 months away :shock:
