Finally I just arrived in Weehauken NJ a stones throw from the big apple. I intend to ride into town but I also need a break so i am not sure, plus the roads suck. So here I am across the river from the empire state building which i can see from my hotel window!

See you all in another week or so! BYEBYE and anyone who misses me please post here under SPRING RIDERS with your rides, stories or tales of woe missing Hunkypunk. Sorry I dont mean to sound so pathetic, maybe just alittle ghay because I have only slept about 6 hours in the last week.

BE SURE TO READ BOTTOM OF PAGE ONE, MORE PHOTOS!

Sounds like you are having a ghey old time, fellow! Keep it going!

I took the Monster up the road on San Luis Peak to the Willow Creek Trailhead by the Equity Mine yesterday. It was an exhilarating, seat-clinching ride up and down was even more white-knuckled. But I kept the shiney side up, fully loaded. It never would've touched gravel (too much padding). Anson said I looked like I was riding three-up. I will post pictures when I get back from my Colorado adventure. Made an assault on San Luis, but was chased off by storm clouds, so I was denied a summit on my birthday, NO LESS! That's okay, I will live to climb another day. Spent last night in Gunnison. Phenomenal ride over Slumgullion Pass. Lot's of sweet twisties. I am heading for Kiebler Pass and on to Glenwood as soon I get the bike loaded. Sorry I missed you, Dusty and Kingbaby. I got your message last night after I got my room in Gunnison. You would've already been enscounced in Durango. Thanks for the birthday wishes!! Kiss

HAVE A HAPPY ROCKY MOUNTAIN BIRTHDAY, BONFY. Vino!

Are you over thirty yet? Grin

Back from Vegas. Had a blast. I'm not broke, at least not from Vegas anyway. Got new rubber on the bike and made a run to Santa Fe today to break it in. Ah. Life is good again.

Hey guys & gals, we survived a 1700ml. adventure in 4 days through Colorado. With the exception of a clutch overhaul on the side of the road using parts from the grocery store, it was a perfect trip. We have a new video camera that shoots 2/3 speed (notice the wind screen) matrix style video, but the clarity is awesome. So here we go.

Waiting out the one lane traffic flood on Red Mountain pass.

Twin Lakes at the bottom of Independence Pass.

switch backs at the top of Ind. Pass in sloooww mooootioonnn

The waterfall in this video was fogging across the road. Can't say i've had that happen before.

Just outside of Gunnison " wheres Bonfy ?? I want her to see my new boots ! "

Dusty enjoying a casual afternoon in Aspen after a perfect day on the mountain. 75* , no wind, 2 stream crossings & a cucumber martini. That doesn't suck.

Funs over. Time to work. Can you get a dry clutch too wet in the rain ? Answer is yes.

Hwy 92 south of Hotchkiss. Best road i've ridden in the state. Had to stop for this.

The Count can run... BUT HE CAN NOT HIDE
So We made him buy us breakfast in Bloomfield. I'd tell you about the huevos, but don't want to start the whole man peaches thread jack thing again.

Headed home.

Safe travels to you all. Hope to see you soon.

Awesome pics and video. Some more roads added to the list of those that must be ridden. applause

Were you holding the camera for the videos or do you have a mount now? They seemed to be to steady to be hand held. Or are you just that good. Grin
