Happy Fathers Day!
«

Hope everyone has a great father's day. I'm excited to have a trip planned for Sunday and the following week.
I dropped my ST3s off at AMS for 18k service on Tuesday just before closing. They had her ready Thursday evening. What a great place. Jeff Nash even helped me load the bike on my trailer.
I took a phone photo of my bike sitting on their showroom floor. I guess she compared road stories to track stories with the 750 in the background last night.
So, I have her loaded up and I will launch on Sunday evening for Arkansas, followed by Missouri ending in Hermann, Mo. Then I'll twisty my way back to Dallas next weekend. I think I have the best backroads picked for some exciting riding. I'll post up a followup when I return.

G,
Well, if it was going to the Industrial location, I could have ridden the bus back home. But, Alvarado is a long walk.
Now I could have asked you to give me a ride on the back of your bike, but it would have looked like a sequel to Dumb and Dumber!

I was a test tube baby and have neither parents nor kids. Fathers Day and Mothers Day are rather cheap Hallmark Moneymaking Days for me, as is the winter solstice holiday period.
Halloween is a different story...

On a much obviously happier note, happy Dad's Day to all those dads out there. Never have had the pleasure of being a dad but I do enjoy being a step dad. Moms and dads never get the credit they deserve for all they do. Hopefully everyone's kids will really appreciate what their parents did and how much they sacrificed when they become parents.

Or the sequel to "Wild Hogs". That was hysterical.
