Have a happy, and safe 4th everybody, and don't forget to pick-up, and dispose of your spent fireworks. Would not be cool to litter up America on it's birthday.

Hope your 4th was good. I shoulda stayed home, better fireworks. Went to in-laws and it was ok but meh, nothing big. Oh well!
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!

We invited a couple over that had just moved to Kansas City, and had a cook out, and shot off some fire works. There was quite a show. Every one in the neighborhood was setting them off.
Jose had just joined the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle club. He has a really nice KZ 650. He showed me pictures of some of his bikes he had owned. One was a very cool CB 750 that was running a magneto.

When are you going to be in Lenexa? If it is the first Saturday of October, you could go to "Ralph Wayne's Backyard Nationals." It is the best show/event of the year here. Are you bringing your bike?

yup, date changed to the end of the month. getting too cold to ride, methinks . . . always the danger of snow, too, slight as it might be. looks like I'll be flying in the air rather than on the ground.

Too bad well let me know when you have the date for sure. Well get together, and trade some stories.
