Yes I see that! I’m driving my wife down to Arizona tomorrow. Going to spend time there and then fly back for a while. It will be a winter where I’ll spend time in both places.
Didn’t ride the bike down this year, mother in-law was terminally ill. We spent her last days with her.
But hopefully next year it will be there for some great winter riding.

Sad for your loss, but it must have been nice for her to have you there.

Thank you Rocky.
Yes my wife and I spent a lot time with her. My wife was with her mom for 5 weeks until she passed away. Time she will cherish for ever.

Wow, just finished reading this entire post. Took all week.
Love seeing all the great scenery and reading the awesome riding stories.
You have inspired me to take the long way to Myrtle Beach Bike Week this spring.
No interstate and 2 days to get there.

Thinking about Cody, WY in August.
Might just have to go for it.

Thanks for sharing your awesome adventures.

Thanks! I am really glad you enjoyed it. A lot of the inspiration for the riding and recording & posting comes from the Readers. Cody looks like fun. My plan is to sell the ‘017 this spring and step back in time and only ride the Panhead. It will be a hell of an adventure. Old Slow ride by an Old Slow Man on an Old Slow Harley..... Old School.
