Re: Rallys and such



Hey Jim,

Wasn't Avon great?!?!   Thanks for remembering the name of the lodge.

I'm hoping for good weather to pick up the ST this weekend --- I've got to
get some time in the saddle to get the feel of this baby, because I'm signed
up for Reg Pridmore's CLASS (2nd time; 1st time 2 years ago with the
Connie---- leanred more in one day that in 20+ years of riding on my own),
in the beginning of June --- after that I've got a 10 day trip to Portland,
OR, to test out the ST's legs and do some canyon carving with a friend of
mine who owns an R1 (unfortuantely I'll probably be looking at his ass most
of the time --- nothing seems to be able to touch that scapel on two
wheels!!!!).

Catch ya later.

Lance
