Hoping to make the 8/13 run but have out of town friends visiting...

Thanks again.. 'Til next time...

No worries, family always comes first. Yeh I would be starving too with no breakfast. Catch you on the next run..hopefully you can sneak away from friends or bring one of them as your copilot.

Thanks for the kind words!

Yeah, I would like to go next runs. But work schedule is making it a bit difficult.
Leather feels good when cruising, just keep the sun shades in the window when parking out in the sun. The sun can damage it pretty bad after time. I saw my 05 350Z awhile back and Phong parks it in the sun and talk about the seats looking baked. I use a sunscreen and towels on the side windows and another sun screen in the rear deck.

Drats on work schedule, but understand, hopefully you can make another one this year.

Dunno know why, I aways let them know if the man's coming in their direction. Being a biker myself. It may have been a car that caused the scooter to go down.

No worries Chai, glad you made it there just as we were pulling out of Winters. Timing was perfect and all the way from Dillion Beach...must have been at warp speed 4. See ya on the next run!

Thanks Charles I may take you up on that. Will need to meet for coffee and I can burn a DVD for you to work it thru Premiere Elements.

Thanks guys, I had the sun on my side this run, made for some great contrasting photos, Only a few were touched up, you can see from the file names.

I get lucky shooting one handed out the window. I could not figure out why my elbow and wrist were sore at the Casino. No, it was not from playing the one armed bandits.

I got a few more to post up then by Thursday will post the entire album link. These are selected from my best of cut list of 92 photos. The rest are in the 206 best of album. Took 697 photos in all that day.

Hopefully I will have the rig working for the DSLR for rear shots, although the tint and the rear window defogger lines mess with the auto focus, so it's a hit and miss. Might just one hand it again.....ok I am opening myself up for jabs on that last line....haha.
