SE Kansas With Derek Smith and the 2 Marks
« on: February 12, 2017, 09:34:22 AM »
Great ride with Derek Smith and the 2 Marks
Missed my standard riding buddy David Woodward (Woody)
We did about 240 miles about 80% Gravel
You will see a photo of Derek Tearing up at the beauty of the location,
Unfortunately Mark 1 saw his shadow so we will have 6 more weeks of winter,
Mark 2 showed us how to fish with an imaginary pole.
Not to be shown up Derek struck a pose to show off his sexy new pants..
Great day with great companions.

That looks likes a fun ride.  For what ever reason I am infatuated with wind turbines. 

In the photo CIMG2094.JPG, the blue bike on the left is hanging the helmet from what?  Is that a bag with some type of hook?  That would be nice!

It's my bike 2006 V-strom 650.  I bought it last year, the previous owner put a bolt with a spacer through the crash bar. It is nice, bike is pretty good too. 8)
Had a great time on the ride, saw parts of Kansas that really looked good, not the same old flat Kansas.

Sure,  anytime you want to "pay bills" instead of going on a ride !!! Not a problem.
Just kidding, I'm sure there will be other rides, looks like the group is picking up speed.

I'm definitely glad you guys got out and enjoyed the beautiful weather! But if I didn't hang some type of crap on Randy and Derek they'd probably both think I was mad? Lol

I agree the group seems to be coming together, I'm very excited about what the riding season brings for us! As long as we continue to participate and share with each other there's no reason we can't whoop this old crew back into shape and share some great times meeting friends new and old!

Beaumont is 119 miles to the Missouri line, I consider Beaumont and Eureka to be in south central Kansas, that is what thru me, that is a great area to ride.
