That would be a Vincent Black Knight. Very collectable and valuable. Check it out:

Lots of Donkeys here....we went Donkey in 2008, remember? Lots of elephants in the rural areas though...got to stay close to the big cities. :lol:

Sure looks like Kansas or Nebraska is the middle of the country...sure if flat around there, isn't it? Maybe good for drag bikes!

IF things work out, I was hoping to do all of Route 66 next year. Starting off from DC to Chicago, to L.A. and then back to DC. I'd be up for a detour along the way....

I was thinking late spring. I can handle it if it gets hotter. Getting caught in the cold stinks. I was thinking Mayish... God willing of course. And I'm so making a detour to go see the Grand Canyon!
I have to crunch some numbers, see how far between fuel stops, think about the time I can take to do it. Oh, and put my motorcycle together first. ;) All the details and such.
But I'd be more than happy to have a few others along. Even for part of the trip.
