Homeward bound: Days 5 & 6

After taking a couple hours to ride the 70 miles back to Phoenix from the lake, we all sat and relaxed up for the next leg of our journey in the morning.
Sun was shining and daylight was ticking by as we left for Santa Paula Monday morning. 100 miles into our trip, Marty's motor came to an abrupt end, with a huge cloud of black smoke. This was not a good sign considering his bike leaked and smoked less than both mine and Wolfs!
With no time to spare, and beers, dinner and beds waiting for us, Wolf and I pushed west.
Tuesday morning was our final stretch and only 350 miles separated us from home. The remaining bikes ran great, the weather was warm, and the chopper gods forced a slip of the throttle before every cop! Great trip, great stories and great friends.

One good trip

Love Party

After our relaxing rain day, we geared up and left for the lake first thing (12pm!) Saturday morning. Great ride up, and the snow level was just above our heads as we rode in.
Huge thanks to Jeremiah and his family and the crew that helped put this event together. It was a great trip out, awesome party, and we're not even quite home yet!

Rain Day

Our original plan was to head to the campsite on Friday, but the rain was intense all day. Our buddy Jason was trying to meet up with us as well, but said it was snowing like a mother fucker when he went through Kingman. He even passed a snowplow on his chopper. So we broke open the ice chest and the tattoo gun, and waited for the storm to pass.

Arizona Bound (what the fuck were we thinking) day 2

There's nothing like riding WITHOUT a rain suit on! The short days are sometimes dangerous when it comes to keeping a time schedule. Long gas stops, break downs filled with mostly harassment, and a mindset of "we're almost there". We did finally make it to Phoenix, and before nightfall! A quick parts search, thanks Jeremiah, and we were back to Levi's for welding, wrenching, drinking and more harassment.

Your missing it........Guss

Arizona Bound, day 1

We left Sonora with the intention of riding OUT of the storm, but apparently the storm had different ideas. Rain for most of the trip south until we finally made it out of the Tehachapi's and into Mojave. Cold, but dry, we blasted across the desert and then cut into San Bernardino. The entire valley smelled like fast food, delicious, but we still had some miles to do before we could call it quits. So we drooled all the way to Indio that night and took turns guarding the truck at a "nice looking" motel 6.

Once upon a time...

... in France, I happen to destroy a throw out bearing. We lacked the required parts to make a proper fix, so Yvon and another guy welded a little nub on my clutch pushrod end, trapping the hardened washers which now acted as my throw out bearing. And on we went!
The other day I was searching through my vest pockets and came across a brand new throw out bearing which we had ordered back in Holland, about nine months and 7500 miles ago. Oops.
Well, I finally got the new one in there, and I will be honest, that trick is a good one, maybe a little too good!
