Stripes - it's more that we expected you because you said you would be there, but yes, you are special.  ;)

Meeting these jokers face to face is a blast, and the description of 'good people' doesn't do the group justice.

I'll meet you for a ride in SW Michigan at some point - need to see you exist in person!

More than half of the people on this forum have met me at a rally or regional lunch meet. I've spoken to you on the phone more than twice, John. What else do you need? Faith. Have faith. I will return. You can call it the 2nd coming of Stripes. Ride up to my wedding in Maine on July 25th if you'd like. It will be here:

Dan, someday I'd love to ride your loop to South Haven. I didn't get done with work as early as I had hoped or told you that I was going to on Saturday. Contrary to what some people think, I don't force my employees to work weekends, it is voluntary. All of my employees had plans on Saturday but 1.

We were on high ground, though I did explore the flood zone on a 1am trip to the bathroom.  :o

I know you are real.  I am just amazed by your ability to never make a meet you say you will.   :lol:

I rode over five thousand miles in total on my way to Grand Rapids in hopes of meeting Stripes in person. I'm just a little disappointed.

The last 15 miles or so of US41 are possibly the perfect motorcycle road if you subscribe to the 'pace' method. I'm pretty sure I was in third gear all the way & never touched the brakes just rolled the throttle like a rheostat. I want to move to Copper Harbor and get a job in one of the other towns along the peninsula just so I can ride in and out of C.H. twice a day every day. I has been a long time since I rode such buttery smooth pavement that clung so tenaciously to the nap of the earth. I had a moto-chubby almost the whole time.

Unless they repaved it, the last time I was up there it was getting really bad.

So where are you these days Coho?

I couldn't say myself. I didn't ride up there last month. The beers were going down to good.

I am currently in Copper Harbor. I left Head's place about half an hour ago half in the bag on his awesome brew. :beerchug:

That spectacular bit of road was US41. The last fifteen-ish miles into C.H. were positively transcendent. I'd guess the asphalt was laid last year because it's fully cured and seasoned but not yet deteriorating. Mmm...MotoNirvana. :drool:
