    Most of all I appreciate the satisfaction you share without making any of it about yourself. Fun, family, the new friends, the bike, the course,the ride itself, cold beer...all with style and grace.In my opinion one of the greatest motorcycle films of all time !

    Hey! You’re pretty good! Congratulations, and a podium finish to boot. Happy birthday to your spouse, guess I know where she’ll be next year, too.

      Thank you so much. Sharing this with my family is so important to me and I'm lucky that they are so supportive and into it!

    That was epic! I loved the hill climb and your a beast on that sled. Near the end, I noticed the blown L/H fork seal and the destruction of the foot peg rubber lol! Got to get that resolved as that could hurt!
    As usual, well done Bill and looks like an awesome family outing.

    Love your beer cooler. Here in Monroe County, WV we call them beer condoms, because we believe in safe beer.

    I enjoyed the ride and seeing the family fun. The seam down the middle of the tank reminds me of the Honda 65 I learned to ride on, The seam wasn't enough, they covered with a chrome strip. I got the big ouch more than once riding that little street bike in the woods! Your bike is as old as me!
