Thanks, bike ran great the whole trip.

Triple digit sport touring, no problem, these machines are awesome.

Looks like fun!  I was out playing today (and yesterday, as it happens) in MO as well, but I was mostly S/SW of St Louis!  Will have to see if any of my pictures turned out okay tommorrow.  Took my 95 ZX9R and rode with a friend on an 08 FZ1.  I just put in a ridiculous spur of the moment ride home (was planning on going home tommorrow instead), and did the ~360mi trip back after playing in the twisties for about six hours in the morning. 

1238 miles in 3 days, huge fun... but I'll bet that I'm feeling my age and then some tommorrow!

You know what they say though? You're only as old as the woman you feel...  :biggrin:

Really sweet pictures!

Makes me think Doug and I need to stop more on rides and place our bikes in more interesting spots.
