Dot and I have returned from the land of berets and haggis (Paris and Scotland, to be exact) . Her relatives -- now my relatives, too -- in Scotland are a hoot. One of them turned up a picture of one of Dot's aunts on an Ariel; still trying to figure out the model. WHY hasn't there been more posting while we were gone?????  More later. I have no idea what time zone I am in. Or should be in. No MC riding for at least a day.

I got out for a short ride. Tested the Aerostich Courier bag, since I plan to use it as my briefcase. Works! Also thinking of making the S1000RR, my Theo, my only motorcycle. I don't think I will ever ride the long excursions as some of you here get out for. With the rearsets on Theo, I can almost ride as far on it before my knees complan as the big bike. If Dot sells her only motorcycle, and I sell one of mine, then we will have a hole in garage. Probably get an electric scooter, or something....

Go visit the Europe & UK subforum for some of our pics. Notarian gave us excellent advice on the roads in Scotland.
Glad to be back in the home of the brave (though Scotland claims that as one of their taglines) and the land of the large shoulders.

Pretty good riding this am. . .. Anyone else get out? Perhaps the track. . ..  I rode to Morton's! And I didn't talk with an ambulance crew!  I went there to talk with Steve about selling the K1200GT. He said good luck, the market is flooded with them. I bought a pair if gloves and rode home.
