So my brother, Steve, and I were driving around in the country and we came upon one of those hills that at the right speed make your tummy feel funny as you go over the crest and Steve smiles... so we turn around , go back to try it again and all of a sudden he giggles... now if you know Steve... well, anyway he turns it loose and we are really getting up a head of steam and I'm thinkin' of asking him about the turn right after the peak when he starts giggling again... I knew to cinch up my seat belt. As we reached the crest we went up... and up... with the road turning off to the right, we both rather knew that this was different. The hood was pointing to a big green thing that finally registered and my right foot tromped onto the imaginary passenger brake pedal. Steve, still staring ahead calmly said, "This will probably really mess up the paint job.", and giggled. http://www.bergall.org/temp/venture/upatree.jpg

I like what the Western NY group did with getting themselves shirts and was wondering if there would be interest from the Canadian members (with approval from Freebird pending). This way those from the Great White North would stand out at events. What I'm thinking is... 100% pre-shrunk white cotton shirts with a red maple leaf on the side (9" tall/9" wide), VR.org crest on the back, and up to 3 lines of text embroidered on the front (name, screen name, and city/province). I spoke with a screen printer today to get an idea of cost and they quoted $14.35 per shirt based on a quantity of 50. Price would reduce slightly with higher quantity. This would be strictly at cost of shirt plus shipping and $2 per shirt for use of the crest. For us... I'd be looking at getting two shirts for both Nancy and I. Let me know if you are interested and quantity you would be interested in. Once I get approval from Don and hopefully a soft copy of the crest (in either jpg or eps format), I'll post more info and start taking orders/payment.

Long before I had ever heard of "The Dragon", there was "The Crest". I rode Angeles Crest Highway on my Yamaha 400 and in my Triumph Spitfire. We used to say we were going "flying". Truly one of the great roads I have ever ridden. It is reopened now after being washed out by floods a few years ago. I would love to get back there one day an enjoy the ride again! http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-crest19-2009may19,0,6585700.story
