A trip about the people, not the roads.

I didn't go anywhere in 2008. I was unemployed for almost 70% of the year :eek: [Luckily, I did get a job with a printing company, this is day 5!!!, doing b2b sales :clap: :clap: :clap:

 

The LGB [Limey Green Bastard] is going to a new home in Ohio. The new owner is flying on Sunday morning, and will be heading home that afternoon.

 

This is the most memorable picture of the LGB....the last one after a really, really nice sunday ride with good friends on some new roads I have never been on [pretty good for a local ride] and an omelette called the "Kitchen Sink" :thumbsup:

This was the first picture, after I picked the LGB up. [At that time, it didn't have a memorable nickname. :dopeslap:

Dan,

Beth and I rode 600 miles to see the races and eat Tortilla Soup.

And see a lot of friends.

Wish we had seen you there.

Here's a pic from Cedar Key.

If I've known you were coming, I would of been there. You should let a brother know when you're in town [Land O' Lakes is only 20 miles away]

Hands down, one of the most amazing pictures I've ever seen.

I've been thinking of when Danny got called "Tender Browns" (Oh yes, that HAD to come up :clap: ),

 

Thanks for the memories, Jan. :/

 

At least now I know how to order breakfast when I'm out west. :grin:

My most memorable photo/moment of 2008 on the road was my getting to go to yellowstone and getting to see AND take a picture of a black bear.

It would be soooooo cool to get a polar bear up close to.

This is from the only trip I took this year. I sold my bike a few weeks later.

I recognize that view Burt. I miss seeing that and the locks at the Soo. Sorry the bike had to go. Did you get anything else?

Shawn,

Nothing yet. I've been looking at several different bikes, but if I don't ride more that I was earlier this year it would be a waste of money.

Really hard to pick just one, so I won't.

 

 

The most memorable moment has to be when I caught the flash flood near Tropic, Utah.

The most memorable photo is one that I just shot with no sense of composition or lighting, but it was admired by those who know photography, Tom and Francois.

I remember this : in the mountains of Corsica meeting a family of wild pigs...

And this one I like too. Siesta time in a mountain village in Corsica. I was sitting outside a café having this view when I toke the picture. There was an almost unreal silence there. The only thing I heard was the ticking of the cooling metal of my GSA..

Cool sequence there, eddd. About what was the total elapsed time on that series, ie. how fast was the flood?

Thanks. I would guess it was about 90 seconds or so.

What an amazing thread this turned out to be. I was truly moved while viewing the replies and photos. It was a quick look into the lives of the people here.

 

Well Done Folks!!!

This is a wonderful, wonderful thread. Thanks all.

 

For my part:

 

First, arriving in Death Valley after spending the day hooning across the desert with Barry and Val. A great day.

Second, a couple of photos from Utah (Spring Torrey). With my Mom aboard, it was the most important road trip I've ever taken. 3000 miles of quality time with one of my closest friends, made all the sweeter because she'd just celebrated her fifth year out from breast cancer.
