Great pics! Sounds like a fun trip. I have not had the chance to ride through the mountains on my 695, I can only imagine how much I would hate to return to the city!

See you all at 12:30.

Nice ride folks!
Sorry I screwed up a couple of times.
Here's some pics.


This was just before we passed Bacon's Castle. After the ride, I found out that Bacon's Castle is the oldest documented house in Virginia, built in 1656. It's now open for tours.

Hey,
Y'all know those were city geese.
Country geese will fly away when a motorcycle comes at 'em, city geese just give you a dirty look and keep walkin' across the road!

I saw that sign.  If Kris knew there was going to be  [bacon] he probably would have come.  If we end up out there again we should stop, take a picture, and post on the  [bacon] thread.

If interested, contact Daly at 757-581-1415 ASAP.

Jeff - Thanks for posting the pix! It was great riding with you all over the weekend.

I think the boy toy wants to head up near Richmond to hit some twisties this weekend. Unfortunately, he only get Sunday off so it won't be a long trip. I'll let you guys know if we find any good ones.

Hey all...sorry I missed out on the ride Sunday. I have just been busy trying get my school work done. College is not as easy as it was when I was 19!!! Jeff I really appreciate you looking after my bike during that storm and I'm really sorry that it took so long to pick it up. I am glad that we seem to be getting more people to hang out with the HR crew. By the way Jeff I saw you making the right onto VA Beach Blvd from Ballentine right around 3:50...I was on my way to a football party to see my beloved Skins pull off the upset of the season. You guys looked awesome and it amde me proud to see everyone at the light stareing at you guys. [thumbsup]

Kris,
No problem.
Maybe you should get a cover for it?

Reminder: Sunday morning at 9 AM is the Moto Guzzi biker breakfast, Bunny's restaurant in Suffolk.

Tomorrow we're headed to the State Fair up in Richmond.
I pray my wife doesn't see any rabbits for sale. [laugh]
