Scooter Bob Posted April 2, 2011 Author #126 Posted April 2, 2011 (edited) Yes, had a great time last night and this morning. Thanks for the use of the couch, and thanks for the coffee this morning! Having breakfast at exit 201 on I80, and Garmin says about 260 miles left. Almost home honey! Later, Scooter Bob Edited April 23, 2011 by Scooter Bob

Scooter Bob Posted April 2, 2011 Author #128 Posted April 2, 2011 (edited) Home! Had to do a little zig zagging near the end to get the Garmin trip meter over 4,000 miles, the RSV was about 83 miles ahead. The bike had 4K when I stopped at Eagle Eye's place for a quick vist. More pics tomorrow from the Friday ride. Later, Scooter Bob Edited April 23, 2011 by Scooter Bob

Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #136 Posted April 3, 2011 Left out of Abilene, KS and headed to Topeka. From there I took hiway 4 Northeast to Atchinson, KS. Boy, the things you find when you get off the big road. Atchinson is the birthplace of Amelia Earheart, so I headed to see that, and find a little train museum on the way. More to follow, Scooter Bob
Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #137 Posted April 3, 2011 Here's Amelia Earheart's birthplace... More to follow, Scooter Bob
Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #138 Posted April 3, 2011 And Lewis and Clark beat me to this area... Later, Scooter Bob
Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #139 Posted April 3, 2011 From there, it was another battle of the WIND all the way to Bryan and Lisa's in Oskoloosa, Iowa. I think I won the battle, cus I never got blown clear out of my lane, but it was close a few times. Bryan met me at a gas station about ten miles South of town and led the rest of the way to Oskoloosa. Thanks for the Beer, Bryan. Just over 3,700 miles for the trip when I parked for the night. Later, Scooter Bob
Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #140 Posted April 3, 2011 Any dry city's yet this trip???? NO MORE BEER!!!!!!! Not a one this trip.
Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #141 Posted April 3, 2011 Welcome back Bob! Glad you made it home safe. Now you will pay for shipping your lovely wife a box of dirty clothes instead of a thoughtful gift. Had to ship the laundry home so I had room to haul the trinkets I picked up along the way. What did I ask that you send back for me??? A cowboy, an oil baron, or a tumbleweed. Well, you have no excuse for what you sent me because you even posted a picture of the tumbleweed. Love ya, Karen Got her a T-shirt from Luckenbach with a cowboy and horse on it:scratchchin:, and I already posted the tumbleweed pic. Picked up a few T's for the grandkids too. And Jocelyn is wearing one of them already today. Later, Scooter Bob

Hope next time I will be off the week you come thru,Again we have a room for you and the wife and only 21 or so miles to Luckenbach! Thanks Tom, We'll keep that in mind cus I really would like to get Karen down there sometime and spend a few days. Later, Scooter Bob
Scooter Bob Posted April 3, 2011 Author #143 Posted April 3, 2011 (edited) Glad I watched this hail come down from the house today, instead of while out ridin' yesterday! Later, Scooter Bob Edited April 23, 2011 by Scooter Bob
LilBeaver Posted April 3, 2011 #144 Posted April 3, 2011 Glad I watched this hail come down from the house, instead of while out ridin'! ... Wow, I could see that relief! Been there and not fun at all. Glad you made it back okay and had a good trip! Thanks for taking us along
Flyinfool Posted April 3, 2011 #145 Posted April 3, 2011 Good thing you made it back before this weather hit. We had the same hail down here. About 1/2 inch diameter and enough to cover the grass and roads.
