MV Day 1
http://s1001.photobucket.com/albums/.../MV%20Day%201/ Day 1 FYI - we have had two Nomads go down on the Dragon. In both cases the bike was ridden away but banged up with both riders skinned up.

Thanks for the pictures, they look great. Keep them coming.
Dave [BNG] went down and drove back to the hotel. Who else went down, and how are they?

Great photos Bill....making me jealous! Hope the guys who went down are okay and not too banged up. That would ruin your day for sure... :-/.

Great pictures Bill, thanks for posting them. Guess the Dragon was a little tougher than they bargained for. Who were the guys that went down. Sure hope they weren't skinned up too bad or their bikes hurt very much.

B&G and the guy who makes the fiberglass lowers went down. I think his name is Russ.
They are both scraped up but OK other than that. OldBones lost his bike on an exit ramp that did a hairpin turn with no sign stating it turned into a sharp curve. His bike is pretty banged up. The trailer he was towing went over also. His bike is in the shop and may have it back ridable by Thursday.

The details of the rally have been few and far between.

Glad to hear the bikes should be fixed enough so they can be ridden. That is always terrible news. Glad the guys weren't hurt more than they were.
