Sorry for your loss Don.
Those are great pics. I love those old motorcycle related pics. The pic in my avatar is my Dad on his 1930 Indian. He passed in 1990 and I still miss him everyday. Hang on to the good memories Don and your Dad will always be with you.

Thanks for the kind words everyone
He was a charter member of the AMA my uncle thinks his number was 33. He road over a million miles in his lifetime. He opened his first bike shop in 1948 and sold the dealership in 1978. And everytime i step into my shop or throw my leg over a bike he is there with me.
