Thumper 8

Yep, was a lot of fun. Unbelievably good weather for the second year in a row - how about three times lucky!

Poor bastard on the left of the picture with the KLR kept his helmet on - obviously hiding his head in shame.

The shame, the shame.... ;p

I'd be interested to know the story behind this one as well.

Looks like a free gas to bikers giveaway at the top of a montain :beer:

I plucked this image from another bike site a while ago.

As I remember, this is the result of a big bike rally in the Alps - I believe this is Stelvio Pass:

I would be pissed if I travelled half way around the world to ride this road, and ran into this :beer:

Wow - old picture. I think half those bikes have been sold by now. Torch, who took the picture, is now on a FJR.

My old bike - red bike 3rd from camera - has (had?) a Lockhart Phillips tank bra. Buy 'em online or any bike shop can order one in.

Damn, I wish I had kept the bike now! BTW, this is from the Duffey Lake Rd north of Whistler this spring.

Looks to me like the Duffy Lake Road, between Pemberton (north of Whistler) and Lillooet - great local road. Temperatures now are probably 50's / 60's F (warmer in the sun) and looks like the ice is now melting off the lake, assuming this is a recent picture.

Anyone in the 'hood this Sunday looking for a similar ride, there is a VFR ride planned, weather permitting. Chekc out the link here:
