Had a great time at the Ohio "Plain and Casual" Rally this weekend. I didn't
arrive until 3pm, but it was a beautiful day and relaxing ride out. Nice to
meet John Fish and put a face with the name. There was a nice burgandy
full-dress Eldo there with Harley Electra-Glide mufflers on it - didn't get
a chance to talk much with the owner and his wife (or get any info for the
Loop List) though. It really sounded off when a group of us were riding for
supper later! Had a great time hanging out with all the "usual suspects".
Nice location for the rally - secluded and quiet, hard to believe it's
probably only five miles as the crow flies from the <ahem> slightly less
scenic area across the river around Weirton. Nice twisty road in too!

Ran "Sophia" pretty hard on the return trip and nothing broke or fell off
this time :-). Really accelerated and handled quite we'll in the twisties on
WV20 and US50 for a big ole touring barge loaded with camping gear. Took me
8 hours for the 320 miles partly due to the undulating and curvy pavement,
my needing to stop and eat every 3 hours and answer questions from the
Harley (and metric cruiser) dudes (and
dudetes) that were drawn to Sophia like moths to a flame. One lovely dudete
exclaimed it was prettier than her dudes Softtail and got a frosty glare
from him. Guess I should have stuck around in case she needed a ride!
Cheers,

Charlie
