I think a thread that is made up of stories and videos of good rides would be interesting.

I recently participated in a North American flag relay I carried the KZRider Flag from Bend, OR to Carson, WA. I rode my 81 KZ1300. The bike ran great, 354 miles and 39.9 MPG.

Yes, I posted this same story on the yahoo group. Still, I'd like to recycle it one more time to get this thread started.

I took some video on my ride back to Oregon which I posted on youtube.

Check it out:

I had just modified the linkages to put the sidecar on, some of them were pretty "dicey" o say the least, of course every time I get on the bike my youngest daughter has to get in the chair, she ain't the greatest camera person, but you get the drift. In case anyone was wondering, I have an d Volkswagen Beetle steering damper hooked up to stop any tank slap, cheers Pete.

That's a great video Pete! Your daughter did a good job, considerin the challenge.

I'm always looking in the background of pics that members post, especially when they're from distant places.

Thanks for posting it.

Here's a video of a short ride I took on my Valkyrie two years ago. Hey! It's a six, isn't it. In it I ride up and down Pilot Butte.
