Scott, it was a pleasure riding with you and Bob, well you anyways.

You did one hell of a job on this ride report - achieved "Pantsesque" quality in both narrative and photographs.

I look forward to your next report and to riding with you, and FYB again.

Bob, I'm afraid all the pots and kettles are black these days. No need for name calling. :lol:

Very nice report! It was great to see you and Bob again this summer and your pictures were excellent. You made the right call to skip the heat wave of Ca, we set a record in our town of 107 Labor Day weekend.

Good to see your enjoying the S10, it;s a very capable machine for both paved and unpaved roads.

Great write up. That will be a similar ride and timeline FJRPittsburgh and I will take in June for Tyler's little get together. Gave us a good template to work off of, thank you!!

I need a second motorcycle, a S10 to keep my FJR company would be perfect!! :lol:

Panman: “You guys missed a lot when you ........”

Bikergeek: “Too bad you didn't have time to spend in .........”

^^^This^^^

We have this problem too. I could go crazy worrying about what we've missed on our adventures or how we should have spent more time here or there. I have to remind myself how fortunate we are to be able go where we have gone and see what we have seen.

As far as this excellent ride and account thereof, I'm jealous, but reminding myself.............



ps Got a favorite S10 forum?

Line and I just spent 3 weeks out west. We saw everything and we missed everything. It's an opportunity, not a loss.
