My riding shirt. Both Jwilly and 1911 were on watch today. I kept them busy.

The miles today were about 390.

Jwilly's LD Delivery Special is making room for 1911's FJR and mcy trailer. Griff and I go get those tomorrow so I can begin the cleanup for selling for Maralee.

Thanks for the photos Mark. Why is this thread always so blurry?

I got to be honest. I'm still very fkn angry my friend was taken from me. I was really, really looking forward to years of riding together. Sometimes my rage is too much, but I remember he would never want me to be bummed out, he'd want me to go have fun, so that's what I'll do.

Unfortunately, it'll have to be with you retards.

I am not sad at all, nor do I believe for one second Jason would want us to be. Ride, make jokes, poke fun, enjoy life!
Sunday rode the Foothills loop out of Maggie Valley, Monday rode the Cherohala, Tuesday did the Roan Mountain loop and part of NC 80, today rode the reverse of the Foothills loop and had a blast. I noticed that I seem to be using Almost All of my rear tire.

I understand the anger.

...and ALL the other emotions. You were too crazy busy with life to adequate deal with this. These past two years have been rough...and I appreciate you helping me out where you could. I can't think of you and Jason without THE video of you two railin'. That video is a huge blessing.

Happy Birthday Brother. Miss you dude.

This will forever be my favorite memory. Feeling him tense up as we banked into that first good corner...

I miss that big guy with the big smile. I'd post a photo, but they are already in this thread.

Keep riding that Cherohala Jason!
