Redwoods Rally Summary - Page 2

xncrman · 09-01-2011, 08:29 PM

I want to congratulate everyone that attended and had a great time and fantastic response for the little league. I am sad there were a couple mishaps but happy no one was seriously hurt. I personally know how much it sucks having myself a little issue on the Dragon! It sucked!

I really wish I could have been there. Ride safe. john

Guess I should throw my 2 cents in..Great time! My GF (Cat) had her first longer ride and with a bit of padding on the rear seat hopefully not her last..We both had a great time meeting you all and riding along with you..On the way home we rode the Ave. of the giants the entire length and stopped in at the Benbow Inn for a bite..I highly recommend it and parking a scoot next to all those snotty cages was a hoot..

And best of all my rear tire waited all the way home to go flat. What better place than in the garage...

Kris, I found our camera (packing and all). Do you still want more pics?

Oops, got the camera but not the cable that puts them in the computer.

Whew. . .

Still no cable for the camera, but I finally washed and waxed "Grace". Also removed the bag stripes. tank badges, and the side cover stickers. Looks nice for the ride to church tomorrow.

**nomadtom69** · 09-11-2011, 12:07 PM

How about some pics of the De Badged Nomad I have took the side cover ones off thinking about taking off tank badges would like to see the look

**markclark57** · 09-11-2011, 04:52 PM

There are "badgeless" pics on another thread somewhere. I think we already packed the cable for the camera to my computer (older MAC), so I can take pictures, but I can't post them. Once we get all moved in and I find the cable I'll change my sig. pics to show the bikes in the new place.

**markclark57** · 09-11-2011, 04:56 PM

Check out "Utahmotorcyclist" (Jared) SW regional staff member has a red Nomad with no badges. He also did the body work to take out the grooves for the bag stripes.

**nomadtom69** · 09-11-2011, 06:44 PM

have seen Jareds I noticed you had a black bike and so do I that would give the the true look

**markclark57** · 09-11-2011, 08:23 PM

I have the same sidebag racks and (think so) fender rack. My bags still have the indents from the strips. I have a stock seat and windshield. Pipes are diferent. Jared does really good body work, mine still has some scratches from the accident last year. He has a few engine mods that I didn't bother with. Mine has a flag that Jared dosen't bother with.
