Still gotta get parts for my bike to get it going but I have a bike to ride in the interim. This summer I plan on riding to Cali so if anything that could be a possibility. I could get my other kz road ready with a set of carbs and a tire.

Stopped in Carrollton Il at Rainey Park. Henry T was some relative I had never known about.






Met up with Snarky30 at the Barefoot Resteraunt in Hardin Il for the flag handoff.
After lunch and visiting we handed off the flag and headed for home.

Awesome to see it moving again! If you can, post your pics in the photo thread. I think some guys are only following that thread to view the progress.
