I has going through some stuff and found a bunch of photos from over the years. Wanted to get them digitized but then figured I could just use my cell phone and take a photos of the photo. This one is of me and my ex on my '76 FLH and my '72 Corvette in the background. Taken around 1984. I guess it's not really that old but thought it was a cool photo.
I have a pretty large Easyriders magazine collection going back to 1970 and up to mid '90s. After finding this photo I went down the rabbit hole of looking through the collection and all the old photos in them. Got me reminiscing about how things used to be.
1984, 10 years younger than I, my then 18 year old brother on his first road trip . On his own harley and had been riding 7 weeks when this was taken. We're at the highest point on the Trail Ridge rd in Estes Park Co. Was a 3000+ mi. trip for him. From KC Mo. to Sturgis, down through eastern Co. back to KC then him soloing back Baltimore MD.
He became my traveling partner after that, we went on to some crazy adventures on future road trips.
