On Tuesday, March 15, I saw a GS with license plate "IBR" on route 50 near Fair Oaks Mall. It was about 7:25 am. Was that a club member?

April 17, around 2:30 Red BMW west bound on MD27 near Unionville. maybe R bike? We passed in a hurry.

Twas a nice day for a ride in Frederick County and Thurmont area. Went up MD77 and Park Central. Seemed surreal to be riding through what looked like a dead forest. Not much green there yet.

On the way home from FOA Moto Support, I shadowed a black and silver R1200 GS on Rt 7 to Hunter Mill Road. His vanity plate was RISTA. I caught up with him at a light and asked him if he knew of the BMWBMW Club. He indicated he was aware of the club but not a member. I gave him a club card and invited him to visit our web site.

Sunday, I passed a K16 white, headed South on MD28 at Point of Rocks.

I was riding two up on my silver K16.

Not many sightings in the wild!

1:30 Monday, west bound on Rt 7, a red K1600GT, not ATGATT, 4 lane changes and exited to Rt 9, without ever giving a single signal. Wow. :oops:

This morning, Bruce Dimon on his RT and yellow stitch passed me eastbound on I66 near the Dunn Loring Metro. I honked but he didn't notice.

Perhaps I am so used to people honking at me that I do not notice anymore. :lol:

I would have waved if I had seen you, Jose.

Maybe not on the road, but in the parking lot yesterday (Wed Aug 23) a cute Vespa scooter with a yuuuuge windshield parked next to my R1200GS in the Waverly Garage in Bethesda. Vespa proudly sported a BMWBMW sticker on the back of its top case.

Me on the S1000X at Battleys doing a demo ride. That is one wonderful sport-touring mount.
