Street Fighter LTD quote;
NOTE; Has anyone thought of altering the route once bad weather sets in to keep the flag moving across the southern US till the weather allows it to move back North in the spring.
Winters Coming

RonKZ650 could finish up all the middle states in a good weekend :woohoo:

Leg#3 and Leg#4? (don't think there is one or it goes by another name) would need to work that out but it makes sense to me to run it through the south then the southwest before sending it northward. Maybe it will be a repeat of last winter then maybe again it won't.
We'll get it into Indiana this weekend and hopefully to Kentucky and Ramtough the following one.

Just got home from handing off the flag to Hypnohio and then riding with him to get the flag to Rage. It has been an honor to be part of this. I'll try and post pics later this weekend. Jim and Sherm, it was really nice to get to meet you and hang for a bit. Hope everyone has safe rides.

Just got back in and have the flag here in Cincinnati!
212 miles total on this part, a little sore but up for tomorrows meet up!
Front tire was just almost down to the wear strips when I left but now the tread looks more like a tattoo than tread! :pinch:
Had this happen before when the tire gets worn down to that part of the compound layers it just wears away like a pencil eraser during a algebra test! :lol:
I only got a few shots so will get them up later, Sherm took the most and the best so hopefully he can get them up soon when he checks in here.
Asevans & Les, see you guys tomorrow at 11am EST in Batesville!

yet more pix. The old 440 looks like a real relic of the'80s with that Vetter Quicksilver fairing, but it really helped in the 48 degree weather this morning.
