These go by so quickly. What a trip over the Rockies with Derek, Tammy, Rob, Craig, Darren, Jeff and Al. So great riding and hanging out with you all. I'd do it again next week. You're the best. Saw old friends and made new ones. My special thanks to Corner Carver for letting me sample some real hp and to the Carver clan for diving in on our dead stators. VFRD at its best. Obligatory Rushmore shot . . .

Always sad to have to say goodbye and start heading home And great meeting some new faces this trip Derek

Currently traversing the flats at redonkulous speeds. Pics later. For now...it was EPIC! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It was an incredible event. Just a few highlights for now, with more to come once we're home. - Huge bow in respect to Fred & Lisa (huntinggunns & VcFR) for the rescue run. - To all the superior mechanically inclined Carvers, Qdawg VeeferCanuk and others, helping to perform 2 parking lot stator-ectomies, a chain relink & install plus several other tunes, tweaks and fittings. - OUTSTANDING hospitality from Don & Brenda the owners of the Rocket Motel (everyone needs to post 5******* on google & trip adviser for them) - The many helping hands to make the event such a smooth operation, best in 9 years. I'm sure a flood of pics will follow as everyone departed today.

Day ride up to Devil's Tower.

I finally got around to finishing Phase 3 of my eVo4 project. This should have been completed last year, but some health issues put paid to that idea while still in the middle of some serious re-wiring. Once I tried to continue this year, it was a nightmare trying to remember what I had planned to do and even what I'd already done (I blame the drugs:-). However I finally got it back on the road last week and I think it now represents my original vision. I noticed that the first and second phases of my conversion project are no longer viewable as I believe DropBox changed the URL scheme, so here's the full story:- https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z8yu4aut96wabsa/AADRBsQyLx4MbN2gPIAUROOUa?dl=0

Tammy works on cornering skills in the parking lot while Mr Carver instructs and 4 other volunteers lean the bike so she can get the feel of it. The Carvers play tug of war with CagelessinSeattles stator wire. Those things are a real PITA on a 6th gen, but were no match for a determined bunch of VFRD attendees. Lots of hands pitching in on that one. Finally the Rocket near sunset. It was neat as a pin and the owners were super hosts. I needed a battery for my cell phone - the closest availble was in Rapid City an hour away. They offered to pick it up for me as they were headed there later in the day. You won't find that at a chain hotel. They were super nice people, and good cooks too!!

And Tony, Thanks to you, without which none of this would have happened. You never dissappoint - fantastic job as always. Safe travels home.

Sounds like it was a good SumSum. 👍 Wishing everyone a safe ride home.

VFR has worked well first half of trip. My RAM Double Socket is not long enough with a loaded tankbag. I reckoned this would be the case, but AMZN couldn't get the longer one to me before I left this morning. No worries though...

I sure wish I could be there to hear those fabulous lies. Have fun y'all.

Both the Red and White look great. While I was in the process of plastidipping mine, I had this look as well as using 20mm ammo cans till my saddle bags arrived. Where did the tank “wings” come from?

I think my FireFighter worked out and looked pretty good too. All images here:- FireFighter Phase 2

So damn cool 😎!

It pains me greatly to write this. I will not make the event this time around. Although it is not usually the case in the summer, I've suffered from chronic depression since adolescence. This past month or more I've had a relapse. I have no energy. I'm telling my self this is only for now. That it will pass. That I will travel by VFR again. Just not now. I'll miss seeing all you folks greatly. I hope you have a great and accident free gathering. Sadly, for now Terry (Max not so Swell right now) P.S. I've cancelled my reservation at The Rocket Motel. I hope this gives another participants to join the group lodging.
