All,

 Yes, for sure. Of particular note were the concours Wixom Bags with the
fine, jewelery quality latches!! Talk about wingnuttery!!!!

Whatever works :-) I personally like the look of little bungee cords holding
the latches tight. Did you notice that one cord was purple and the other
green? I'm also glad I didn't paint them all up nice and pretty. The tip
over caused some nice scratches.

 
 Had an uneventful ride up and back (275 miles up and 325 back), the old
'69 ran like the locomotive it is. Only problem is I'm already going
into Loopframe withdrawal! Looking at three is just not enough!
I put about 750 miles on the Eldo between my departure at 1:00Friday until
I
 was home at 4:00 Sunday. It was a blast, and the Eldo ran like a top.

The miles sure roll off these bikes easily. I looked in the newsletter.
Looks like the Md rally is in September? I'll definately put it on my list.
I have said to myself that I will do one rally a month. Ontario in July,
Adirondak in August and Md in Sept. Sounds about right.....let's just hope
for weather like last weekend eh? :-)

Regards...Ian
