laserpat and i did not know this til a coupla minutes ago Tigger. For those of you that keep track of this stuff-here goes. Left la casa and headed West on Mo-76 to Mo-181 South to Mo 14 West all the way to Ozark Mo and U S 65 South towards Branson Mo. Picked up U S 160 East off of U S 65 South all the way to West Plains Mo. On Mo 14 and U S 160 i saw a h3lluva lot more double yellow lines than i did passing zones.

A Missouri Highway Patrol officer in his brand spanking new Dodge Charger Interceptor informed me of the error of my ways 75 M P H in a 55 zone but got off with a verbal warning.

I honestly do not know if either laserpat or Tigger ever rode in the Ozarks-but they did today.

I did not know either one of these riders but felt the kinship because of the Valkyrie.

In my own humble way this is a tribute ride to both of these guys. There is no way i can make it to G O T F. Having never known these riders i have a very heavy hurt in my heart right now. R I P bros. Nuff said. RIDE SAFE.
