PUCON CHILE

PUCON CHILE
The Structured part of the tour is over and sadly we said our good-byes on Friday night. The four of us set out early Saturday catching one of the famous South American Busses to pick up new rental bikes. Here we are back in Pucon Chile. Here's a picture of me with the famous steaming Volcano Villarrica (2,847m), towering menacingly over Pucón. It looks like my brain is smoking!

Meanwhile, yes we are still eating like kings!

Here's the link to video of the DYNAMITE FLYING TIRE EXPERIMENT -   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHltb_XFv44&feature=youtube_gdata_player

(sorry I couldn't figure out the HTML Link) but watch the video, you will enjoy I swear!

GARAGE ENVY!

I recently had the pleasure of meeting a new friend who has the garage of my dreams. Joe, is an avid BMW aficionado. He is also a talented mechanic and a very organized mechanic! Joe seems to possess many other talents as well, which I won't go into now.

Here I am with Joe in his garage.
He had the classics stored in every corner

Here I am checking out a luggage rack for the R75/7.And of course I just couldn't leave the garage without a piece of history. Here's the newest member of my garage! Julie's new R75/7. My wife is fond of Blue!
After her first ride. and hopefully last, in a pick-up truck, I take her out on the road for a
shake down - and I love it!
See you at the RA Rally July 29-August 1, 2010 in Pownal VT!
