Been pretty busy the past couple of months, have not had much 'puter time, other than my hard (for my fat fingers anyway) to use Android phone.  Things are settling down for the moment, and I hope they stay that way for a while.

Hope you're enjoying your summer 442!

Thanks for checking in man! And I hope that at least part of the reason you've been scarce is because you have been riding that steel horse!  8) :chop:

Oh how I wish that were the case.  My mother and her problems, real and imagined, have been eating up all my spare time.  I've put less than 1000 miles on the bike this season. :rant:  I also donated a bunch of time to my son's 61 Galaxy project, doing interior work.  Still have more to do on it, but at a later date.  I will be out and about later this week by myself, then likely again over the weekend with the wife.  Gotta make up for lost time/miles.  :wink:

Dang, this looks like a repeat of last year.  Busy, busy, busy, but things are calming down.  Took some vacation time with the better half the first of July, and have been playing catch up ever since.  We did manage to get one full day (439 mile) of riding the Goldwing during that time, but it wasn't nearly the two or three days on the road we had hoped for.  Oh well, fall is coming up, so we may try again for an overnighter.

Last week I went with my youngest son to Bunker Hill Dragstrip to see some nostalgia Pro Stock cars run.  We had a blast.  The cars did not disappoint.

Thanks for the pics at the dragstrip. Hopefully I will be going to a pro-mod event next weekend weather permitting of course.
Watch out for Goofy!
