I never was one for taking many pictures. I've always used the policy if i can't remember what it looks like i should go back. That may change looking at this post and others ride reports. You pictures have given me a bucket list of places to visit and let me know i need to get the hell out of Ohio  :uglystupid2:

Most valuable thing I have. They help me remember

Do it while you can. I did.... it my way

Wow, Just like opening up a window for some fresh air.  Great Pictures! 


Here's a pic from the balcony at Bellaire (Inzane)

Since I'm seeing a few non bike pictures, I'll pile on.


FL360, Crossing the Front over North Dakota

 


Loon Crossing Zone




Dandelions, and a restored 1972 Glastron Carlson CV16 in apricot color




Old Glory, and a 1973 Chrysler 120 still doing what it does



FL010, Crossing the Front over Minnesota




Pictures capture a moment in time . . . never to be repeated.

The top picture of my 03 is at Lake Louise in Weaverville, NC. The next picture is my newest to me, 2001 taken in Fla.
The last picture I threw in there, so people can understand my handle of Boss Hoss Bill, with me standing by my old departed 97 Boss Hoss!

Wayne, remember this? Same spot in Bellaire, we had adjoining rooms. We had a good chat that evening(you were out of soda so we used water to mix ;)). Don't think we cured any of the world's problems but had a good time talking about them. The second picture was taken on my way back to Ohio after the rally. I wanted to take more of this field of flowers but the camera battery went dead. I had stopped at a rest stop, don't recall where, and this expanse of yellow had to be well over five acres. After this shot I moved to the far end and wanted to take a pic from atop a fence post to get most of the field, that's when the camera went dead on me. Wouldn't even open the lens.

John, I remember it well!  We had a great chat.  That particular Inzane at Bellaire and the resort lent itself very well, what with the  balconies, the great view, and the 'off the beaten path" location.

Too bad that we live so far apart.  I would look forward to doing it again somewhere.

I always thought that this pic kinda represented a typical Inzane at the end of the day.  I don't remember the riders in this pic, maybe someone could chime in.

That first pic is beautiful . The others are good too, but I love that first one, even if it does have the helmet on the mirror.  :)

Ugh, I know, I can't believe I did that.  If I would have known it was going to turn out so good, I would have been more careful.  LOL

But you know with it being the same color it seems to work just fine.  :)

Gone but sure not forgotten.  Cut off the tire though.

Charlie, Rusty, Early Bird, Duane.  I may be wrong on one.  It's not a good angle.

Duane is gone now.

Photochaser's shot got me thinking we have some very nice photographers here.  Let's see some Pics of rides or anything that you'all have taken.

I'm flattered that I got you thinking about this. I thought about really working the real camera on the NW group's ride, but preferred to enjoy the ride. Maybe next time.

Really great pics here.

Here's one last one.  For the long time members do you remember what is going on here?  That's Mark, and Chris, my sons. and me, with another member, doing something for a member. Hint, sorta like Thor's Hammer.

Yep, Doug, that was the truck relay delivery to Highlander.

I'm glad that I started this thread. Really great pictures from the VRCC.

I'll add one more.  This is in remembrance of RJ and all of our members who no longer are with us.

This pic was taken of RJ and me by Hoosier Daddy at the CBR years back.
