IH Truck Guy Posted November 20, 2013 #1 Posted November 20, 2013 Just wanted to thank a couple of great friends. Mike and Cherie Eykamp. EUSA1 and Lucy. I was stuck under a oversize load in Illinois due to curfews for the weekend. They came 40 miles to pick me up at the truckstop and put me up for the weekend. We had a awesome time and Cherie even let me take her baby out for a bike ride with Mike.Saw some local history in the area...Very cool. I never knew about the 50' high statue of Blackhawk over looking the Rock River. Thanks again guys.... And yes Carl,I know I was riding another chick bike.. I know your keeping track....:rotfl: That makes 3 in my travels...

Stealthblade Posted November 21, 2013 #6 Posted November 21, 2013 eusa1, my buddies and I usually ride from Elgin to Savanna through Byron. Maybe I can talk them into turning south to Dixon. Besides 'Clawed', you may be my closest neighbor... would be nice to meet up. Bob
eusa1 Posted November 21, 2013 #7 Posted November 21, 2013 Bob, Be glad to meet up with you any time. We go to savanna galena area often. Call verizon 815-440-0287 Mike
Stealthblade Posted November 21, 2013 #8 Posted November 21, 2013 Thought we might have a nice fall like last year, but it doesn't seem to be in the cards. Probably put the bike in stasis this weekend though I have been dreading the thought. Hope to see you after the white stuff.
