Lance,

Would you like me to stop by today and do a "Daily/ Turn Around" inspection on your bike before you fly??

Pops and I are taking flight eastward. See you FF's tomorrow. (ps. lance, add my Dad to the list if you already haven't)

I think I'm in shock....The Mrs. asked if I minded her going with me on the ride tomorrow....She almost never rides with me...Either she's actually interested in meeting some of you...or she's desperate to escape from the little ones....

Sorry I cannot make it Lance. workin in the ORF tomorrow .. good luck and god speed.

Lance have a great ride
I sure wish we could meet up with you...

Oh it's getting close to your Birthday !!!
Have a Happy one !! And be safe

Making my way east.

Lance

I have 2 contractors stopping in at 10am..........I should be at BAE by 11-11:30

Plan on getting there about the same time...should have at least 4 persons in tow...well three additional bikes and the Mrs.
(If she hasn't fallen off somewhere in southern Maryland...)

Semper Fi, Lance!

Safe home!

Watch your six!

Hey I don't know if ya'll like " Pure Gas " or not..

But here is a site that does list a few...
A buddy of mine sent this to me...
100% pure Gas
Our Valks run way better on it .. Plus great fuel mileage..

The ethanol eats the rubber diaphragm in the fuel petcocks...



Safe travels to all on the road !!!

Lance has left SMIBville!

And has started the first leg of a 4,500 mile trip to raise money for the Menkes Foundation. When I pealed off in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><st1lace><st1:City>Dahlgren </st1:City><st1:State>VA</st1:State></st1lace>, Lance had an 8 Bike escort through <st1:State><st1lace>Virginia</st1lace></st1:State>. Thanks to all the ADV riders that showed up in support of this worthy cause. You may follow his daily Blog located in my Sig Line.

Good Luck my friend and ride safe. <o></o>

Yee Haw !!!!

I bet he was pumped !!

Most Definitely!


6USMC6.........Tell Lance he has a PM

Will do!

You are slacking LD

Well that sucks! My mom just called and informed me that my x-wife was just admitted to the ER in St. Louis for breathing difficulties.
I know she has terminal cancer so I called the hospital and they actually put me through to her room in the ER and she picked up the phone. We chatted and I made my peace, but it's just now sinking in that soon she will be gone at age 55.

I don't know what else to say about it, but it helps to share with you all.

Great day for a ride with friends. Stayed with Lance to Fredericksburg. We all stopped at Morton's and drooled a bit...Wife even sat on a couple bikes.

For a non-rider she did good today, just over two hundred miles on the back half of a KLR...

Good luck Lance and don't forget to make sure your cases are tight...

Sorry to hear this news man. We've had some tough losses in our family recently due to cancer, it's damn near impossible to talk to anyone where this isn't the case. Hang tough 'ol buddy.

Sorry man. Irony of the tobacco shop run.
