Detroit Greetings

Great video. Coincidentally, when Jack asked me if I wanted to go to Lewiston this past year, I jumped on YouTube to see what I could find. This video is one of the things that made me decide to go. Great stuff!

But near enough to go for a ride.
Rode to AK a few years ago.
Hit a caribou.
Busted myself and the bike.
Fixed the bike.
Limped around on the bike for a while.
Got bushwhacked.
(Never knew the meaning of the word until then )

Something like a ride report here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/exposuredetroit/discuss/72157616511978032/
Not on here much, email is better.
Ride an older gs1100..
Have a top gas drag bike ( top gas is an 8.20 bracket class ), a chopper that beat an occ bike at an "unveiling", discovery channel cameras and all.
Ride the BMW a lot.
Help out as pit crew for some friends that run a nitro funny car.

Nice video. Looks like it could have been John B on the green bike.

Yup, we caught up with him and then rode the rest of the loop with him. Good guy.

Ok... so... who knows how many shades of brown there are in the desert?

50, lol


Shades of brown
Auburn Beaver Beige Bistre Bole Bronze Brown Buff Burgundy Burnt sienna

More than you can see in a long weekend in Death Valley.






Good riding with you Aaron. Thanks for the rally tour.

Anyone get a rock count?

One milllllllllllion!





But you have to hit a rock just right to do this.....

What dent?

How about this question... how low can a fighter jet fly?

I think Bruno is still cleaning out his shorts...

Speaking of flying too low... this guy is insane. Watch the "tourist fly-by" at about 2:40 then watch how close he is to the trees starting at about 3:40. What a rush!

Anyone know when the GLDS rides start up this year? The site isn't updated. Wondering if there will be a Tennessee ride to get things started early.

TN (APR 6-7) and other rides listed here: http://www.gldsmc.org/events/

As to the shades of brown, I say all of them. Thanks to everyone that made this ride happen, and to all that went along. The real question is, how much longer do you think that patch would have went beyond the 160 miles that it already did??

I too was amazed that a wheel so tweeked could be ridden on so long.

So here are some highlights from our ride through Death Valley California.

Thanks to Btome, Traveltoad, Bigtraillie, Joe's Dog, Mark, Radak, Peter, Andy, and the support gals.



















Can you see the naked fat chick?
