What are the odds that the same rider would be attacked two different times by a cougar at a national?

At least this one liked the bike and didn't cause any damage to the bike or the rider  Bigok

Back in T Bay, and just drying out! Bigsmile

Yosh, I think that cat musta followed you back to the hotel when you went to the refuge. Did you tell him where I was hiding? If so, I owe you one.





A big hug that is Bigok

PS  It was really great to see so many familiar faces again. Yosh and MacGyver, Jon, Dred, Gary, Kris, Bun and Dove, BJ, Mac, Basco and anyone I am forgetting, hope to see you again next year!

Cute kitty.  These are Redfox's friends:



I've read anecdotal opinions here and there from riders who think their hard luggage helps a bit in making their bikes less "noticeable" to cops who might otherwise be inclined to target motorcycles.  

What about stuffed animals?  Smile

Guess we'll have to ask Harley and Wing riders, I've seen the preponderance of stuffed toys on their bikes.

(That's why it's kinda cool to see 'em on sport-touring rigs.)  Bigsmile

Has basket been in Florida lately?

Biker injured after collision with Florida panther

If there was no interview video of the story, I would think Bill might have been traveling again.

Well, it could have been, but he was just here yesterday having beer.  Although he does tend to ride rather fast......
