HOT DAMN! I made it back to IA ! Believe me when I tell you I was concerned too. Improvise, adapt and overcome! After I figured out how to cram all my crap in the car and open trunk, my next stop was to find someone to look at the tie downs to make sure they looked ok. A nice fella at Tractor Suppy, a fellow rider, said they looked good. So, off I go. All the while checking the rear view and looking for cops. When I get to Homer NE it's time to check the straps. They had loosened a bit and…

hi, It's me again. the hardware didn't work, wouldn't work, I tried to tell them this. maybe one day if I grow a set and get all hairy I can be listened to.

my idea was to take the trunk lid off and start cutting the trunk up. My bike was going to get home no matter what I had to do to get her there.

Crazy Elk said… Once upon a time i had a '78 Yamaha 360 enduro. It was a great bike and I was 16 years old and took it to the limits but everytime i'd kick it over the kick start would snap back and take chunks outta the back of my calf. Real high compression in those little Yamaha's if your kicking it over.
Hey, you are for sure the more adventurous one between you and me. I enjoyed looking at your pictures and wish you the best in all you do. :-)
