Inspired by Andy's Video from the Coloma Rally, I realized I never produced a "Picture-Video" from 2017.

I ended up at three Rallies that year.
I dug deep into the archives, and this is what I came up with.............................

Alan, thanks for your pandemic picture paradise prescription package.
Had many, 'I recognize that place' and 'I recognize those dudes', moments.
Road trips and rallies are easily the best way to occupy a year.
A nasty bump at the end, but a timely reminder that its always best to be prepared and consequently available for future excursions.
life without a bike is just life

Great video, thank you for putting that together. You captured the last Rally that my FJ1300 made.  :sorry: :cray:

Watching the video, it dawned on me. You made an unexpected appearance at 2 of the Rallys. I knew about the possibility that you might show up for the Colorado Rally. The look on my face and Ron's had to be priceless when Leon showed up at the Round-Barn Lodge with you in tow.

Who would have thought, having a gear selector lever snap ring would be so important?

I'm not the fastest FJ rider, I am 'half-fast', the fastest slow guy....

Exactly!
Who carries one of those snap-rings?........................................Fred does!
Thank you for that!

Aside from my "Get-off" I did have a bunch of fun.
Sitting around, eating and drinking at the Round Barn at the end of the evenings was a treat.

Love the video Alan Steve! Brought back some great memories my friend! Hoping we can get across that border this summer to make some more memories with our FJs!
