Seems O.K. to me.
Here is what he posted: "Kawasakis on the move. Just escorted Kawickrice from Wildwood, Fl to Gainsville, Fl. will be a 140 no round trip for me."

Just got back about an hour or so ago from escorting Kawickrice from Wildwood, fl to Gainsville, fl. Nice ride and no rain during the whole ride. Just want to thank Kawickrice for stepping up and taking the flag to Macon, Ga. I couldn't have done it. Have encountered some issues which i need to look from this ride. We should all give him a well deserved thank you. Even with the weather today, 80% chance of heavy thunder showers, it didn't deter him a bit. That would have been enough to keep me home, considering the length of the trip. Just started raining cats and dogs in the last couple of minutes. You can see some pre-hand off photos from Kawickrice's ride at the following link:

Made it back. The flag is spending the night with me in Griffin, GA. Enaz1 ( Eric ) text me and the plan is to meet at Atlanta Motor Speedway tommorow at noon. Enjoyed meeting Kerry (Kawickrice) and Debbie. Have a safe trip back to Tampa Kerry, I took your advice and rode behind Angel on the way back so i didnt have to keep looking back ( my bike has no mirrors).

I think it a browser setting is doing this to some people. Larger font size can do this sometimes. If I do not have my reading glasses and try to zoom the text so I can see it I encounter this

You don't need to thank me. The RZR flag needed to move and I had a good time doing it. Another trip for the memory books.

I was in the saddle for about 6 or so hours,had to stop for fuel a few times, stop to suit up for the rain etc. so it took longer than that to get there. 375 miles is enough for a day, We got a room in Macon for the night and will be making the return trip tomorrow. I will be stopping to have lunch with fivestrings when I hit his neck of the woods. He wanted to make the trip so bad, but just couldn't get the bike to cooperate.
