Beautiful pics.!!! There needs to be a ride in the Green Mountains too! The area I am from is the Rutland, Brandon, Middlebury, VT. The area has a lot of history. You could go to alot of historic places in a day. Great place to ride/visit. There are a lot of back roads to the senic places which is real nice. I have been out already, some days to cold. May is when we get the real nice weather, warm, sunny and it is green, also the flowers bloom!!! I love the area, it is the country!!! Hope you can ruck up this way!

finally had chance to edit some video footage i had.. from 2 different trips.. i was testing 2 jackets i had bought.. one is blue.. one is grey.. i like the grey better.. anyways.. here it is.. i had music but took it off.. didnt like it.. watch in HD as in regular mode it looks pixelized.. the video was 720p 60fps.. however.. anything on youtube is compressed..

well had some free time today at work so made up a vanity license plate for myself.. i do vinyl decals and lettering so had some blank motorcycle plates thought why not.. going to make one for my wife too.. I took a few pics to show the plate and my chanito windshield and a Honda keychain I got as well.. of course my golden retriever Daisy and cat Lily had to jump in the photos..    If you look closely I kinda purposely made it look different then the actual Blue Ridge Parkway plate. I took a photo my wife took of me riding the ruckus and made it into a vector to go on the plate. I think it came out perfect. I had to change it a little bit because the weeding was real small.. but still came out good.. well atleast i think so..  honda keychain  Daisy and Lily checking out the Ruckus |

Well, in my professional opinion, the license plate looks good.
See, that BS degree is being more useful every day.

"THE SIGN" has really become "Hot Property" ever since it made Cycle World Magazine a coupla' issues back.......sometimes "publicity" is bad...as in "Deals Gap"..... ;D
