When Lance heard that Boo might be riding up with Pam he threw a big fit cuz he' sure Boo's going to have more fun than he is.  He said he's sick of doing Red Mountain with a no-knee-droppin-grandma.   So I may have to put him on Zaster's bike for that stretch to placate him. 

Anyway, that would be fabulous if Pam can take him. I'm still trying to find someone to take care of them, but it is good to know that it won't be a show stopper.  He's the only one that needs a daily check-in.   Will Pam be leaving at the same time as all of us?  I can run him by your place and then come back to get the bike. We can firm it up as the time approaches.  Thanks so much!  I am instantly stress-free about the front end of the trip.  Now have to figure out the backend since I am going over to Colorado Springs Sunday AM for a granddaughter's birthday.  Ohhh, the joys of ferret ownership.

Pam is planning on leaving with us Friday morning and returning on Sunday.
Don't mind taking care of the critter  (if instructions are included) since for some reason I have yet to meet an animal I didn't get along with.. can't say the same for humans  [roll]

Anyone riding a red and white monster might not be too happy up in ouray this weekend.  The police aren't happy with one (me) already.  80 in a 60 because I was passing.  Damn it all.

At least colorado tickets don't show up on NM driving records...

Hey Punx, I passed you today...you were headed out of Durango (black ducati jacket and red and white monster?) as I was headed back from Ouray.  I was on the 1098 with gear bags.
If you love your bike, set it free.
If it comes back to you, you've
probably high-sided.

Seriously, they don't??  That's great because I picked up a 97 in a 65 out by Sterling on my little adventure to Sturgis last weekend.  I wondered how soon my insurance would rocket on me.  I guess the days of a simple warning are past.  It makes a huge difference while the lecture is being delivered if you think you might get off with a warning.  The officer announced perfunctorily and summarily at the outset that he was writing a ticket.  Kind of harshed my buzz.  There was much less bowing and scraping on my part than usual as he asked me to keep my speed down from then on.   It felt like when the dental hygienist tells me to floss twice a day.  Here's to lip service.   [evil]

OH, shit, didn't even see a 1098... too busy playing I suppose.

But yeah, red/white monster, Black Corporate ducati suit.

Too bad I'm headed back to Indiana...

Oops!  I misposted.  I meant to say I got a 97 in a 75 Big difference!



I don't even know how long he was back there.  No music, but the sound of the wind and my pipes, plus my helmet drowned the siren out.  I just barely caught a glimpse of flashing lights in my rearview mirror as I was getting ready to pull back in after a pass.  Lucky I was down under triple digits.  They impound for that, don't they?  Radar sounds hard and complicated.  I don't even do an i-pod.  Once again, stuck in the 19th century.

After a bit of searching on "interstate drivers license compact"  I found that Colorado shares information on serious violations such as DWI/DUI but not speeding (to a certain extent). Still looking at it to make sure

They rode mules in the 19th century Bonfy.

[roll] ;D

Speaking of 19th century...when I was in Silverton this weekend, I bought a book on the cemetery up there...this woman spent 50 years researching all that are buried and their lives.  Interesting stuff.  Plenty of syphilis and avalanche deaths...none on Ducati.

You are lucky!!!!! I thought 20 over was a very big deal. I do believe radar is the answer for being distracted by riding the Lancerator and radar are battery operated.
