Hey Laser Pat...Great ride today!



Saw this big trike while I was tanking up today near Luckenbach.  I don't think it's just the camera perspective that makes my Valk look small!  That's a Chevy 350 sittin' between the driver's legs!

we went back via enchanted rock, Llano and lake Buchannan. Fantastic coads. A full house at enchanted rock. It looked like an ant bed! How did the ball game turn out?

My son's team won!  Made it back in plenty of time for batting practice and then the game.


Loaded up the truck and hooked up the flatbead trailer last night.  We were planning to do a Family Day ride with the AMSA (that's him in the picture on his TTR90 at an earlier Family Day), but my son has a fever this morning and a bad cough.  Will probably lay low today and watch cartoons instead...unload the truck...

That thing can't handle worth a dern with the forks that far from the rider's seat.  Anyone have experience with something like this?

Back in the 70's my brother had a chopper with a 194X Indian motor and five or six foot long Springer forks.  It looked awesome sitting at the curb or rolling down the street, it was a nightmare to ride.  The front-end was so long it could hardly turn and a u-turn required stopping and doing a three or four point turn.  It was not fun to ride but it sure got a lot of attention.

Looking at how close the riders feet are to the headers on the trike make me appreciate the headers coming off of the bottom of the Valkyrie.
