I had another chance to ride with my mom and dad. This time it is off to daytona for bike week. They are both on BMW GS motorcycles and seem to really enjoy them. On this ride I barrowed Dad's Bandit as it makes a better interstate bike than the KLR. We took this opertunity to test out some prototype gear that CMA is developing. What better people to design riding gear than those who use it? With us we are caring the Exetreme touring jacket, air mesh, and leather jackets. We also have the matching pants and a sortment of gloves to test.

Tuning th bike with out a muffler has been a pain and I lost some power to boot. So I decided that I needed a muffler to get the performance back. here's the result of 2 hrs in the shop

the wife and I went to Hot Springs for some alone time. No Kids just the two of us killin' time. It was nice for a change. You can not kill time with me without going to a motocycle shop. So here's the one pic from the trip.

Got a red seat and springs at the swap meet. I dig the looks

me and a few of my CMA brothers. Don't worry about Richard he just had a little work done on his shoulder. He's a big boy and will be fine :)

the show was a hit. CMA was there and did a great job.

I was even able to find a few parts :)

On the ride back to Bill's My alternator went out on me. So I decided to use the opertunity to get a few picks while I wait for help.

The weather has changed the plans. The ladies from the office arrived just in time for dinner




Since I had an extra day I decided to go and check out G&L again. This time they were open. What and awesome shop.

The Owner , Richard, took time out to spend with me as I looked over the many bikes he is building. When I need work done he is diffently the Guy I'm going with.
