11 days since any posts were added to this thread (perhaps my favorite!) so I thought I'd loosen up my snow-filled vision with a little reminder of what is to come once the spring thaw hits and a couple of good rains have washed all the crap off the roads...

Great photos, guys. I want to ride my RKC out west in the worst way. So far I've only had the opportunity to ride my CB550 in Kingman and Flagstaff, Arizona. Arizona/New Mexico/Colorado/Utah beats the pants off of Michigan any day of the week.

I've come to the conclusion that I just need to ride! If I honestly start to try to say where my "favorite" riding is, I realize that it's just around the next bend.

UT/CO/CA/OR/WA/ID/MT/WY all rate extremely high...but then so does pretty much everywhere else I've been!

It was 17 below here yesterday morning. I need a fix. This is what we call wrenching season.

They are going to demolish that old building in your pic at Kingman. Most of the faded artwork on it is gone or they have orange spray paint DEMO over them.

Riding today though on the RKC's! (just to end on a positive)

Well that's a kick in the *****. Are they going to replace them with anything? Is the locomotive gone too?

I'm usually in Kingman once a year for work, it's a convenient place to stay for hot weather testing and it's only about 30 minutes from Davis Dam. We tow up and down that stupid hill all day long.

Just finished up my solo seat on the RK . Put the air tank in the left saddle bag and ran the air line through it.
