Zer,
Yeah, that's the kind of Loop riding I'm talking about. I just feel that a
lot of people kind of think our Loops are quaint and romantic bikes but not
something you really get out and ride on in all weather, in all conditions
etc. etc. I think people think, and maybe there's some truth to this, that
old bikes in general are not up to the demands of todays' riding. I have
just been thinking lately that since I finally got my Ambo running right
this Summer I have put several 200 mile days on her. If I were to do that
for several consecutive days in a row I would have a traveling Loop on my
hands. And then I figured that my old Loop may be able to do the traveling
that other "long distance" bikes can do. When people think of traveling
they think of Gld Wings or BMWs and I just wanted to appeal to the List to
find out what all you guys thought about this topic. Thanks. Bob

Took us longer because the first 500 was a loop from redding -Eureka - Yreka california. Nice ride. then the secodn hald was a straight shot from yreka to seattle. the second part slowed us up because it was puking rain the whole way, so we stopped frequently to deal with freeway daze and cold. I was on my BMW /5 with clubman bars, no fairng and wearing a leather jacket and rain pants. I'm not that young any longer.
