I don't know why not. If you ask Ed, he'll send you a replacement. After all, this isn't hard core competition. It's just a reason to ride somewhere.

Check out my picture of the road to Lickingville. :D

I think somebody else did that in a past year, so I think so. I didn't think of that while I was gone though.

I e-mailed Ed and asked for a replacement - so all my bases are covered *now* :)

Chiba,

I enjoyed reading about your vacation trip--sounds like quite an adventure and a lot of fun (despite the occasional rain and traffic issues). Thanks for posting!

That looks like Richard, which means you had just missed Repo, Maria, and me - we were over in Plattsburgh Tuesday evening at my Mom's.... Then Repo caught up with the event and then hopped up to Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island afterward for some sight seeing. She just got back this afternoon... :D

YEAH...that is Richard!!!!! He was one of the other Motorcycle Safety peeps for the charity ride I was connecting with. It's a 1300 btw. And yes.....he knows how to ride w/ a tail.

And, that 'race' may have been the ride I was meeting up with.

Sorry to have missed hooking up w/ you though..... :-(.
