Good to hear you made it back, I was beginning to wonder.
Post up some pic's and details of the new biikes, in another thread. I'm sure everyone will want to see what you brought home!!! B)
nice riding with you, and good to hang out and BS over a couple of beers. Good luck with the Dairy hope it works out for you to do it as long as you want to.

Sorry you were unable to attend Lou, it was a great time, great guy's and great rides, lots of stories told and new ones made.
Maybe there will be another KZR meetup of another name sometime. Perhaps there should be a couple of different chapters, east west and central, with a meet up in each area, then a big meet between everyone, a main meet up.
I don't know, it seemed for me at least, both in Colorado when I lived there and here in Oregon, hard to get other members out for a ride. At least here in Oregon Bill (KZCSI) will join in if he can.
It sure would be great to have a yearly meet of KZR members!!!! But logistics is a Big issue, they are spread all over the globe. :unsure:

My sit bones are still a little sore. :P Ok, I am going to post up the rest of these videos now. Would love to see the rest of the pictures taken posted up and absolutely what I was thinking about, MotorHead. Regional Meets that some could travel to but all of the locals out for sure and then national meet. Just like other well established boards ie. ZRXOA :whistle:
If this site is to stand for anything then it should stand for the three R's Wrenching, riding and rhetoric. :laugh: and

It sure was good meeting saxjonz =Lawrence..... Motor Head=Daryl....CBX Dave....Forrest....Baldy110=Paul....BlueJ58=Jack.
Really had a good time never was a day that I didn't want to ride, the sites we rode through the roads we rode on were all perfect.
Really glad I made the time to go I would gladly do it again.
Glad everybody made it home especially you guys that rode your bikes to the rally I take my hat off to ya.

Thank you Lawrence for the YOU TUBE Link. Good stuff.

Delayed but here are more photos as promised of the remaining days at the KZ Rider Relay Rally.

Here we are on Friday August 8th heading up U.S. 550 aka the Million Dollar Highway north of Durango and south of Silverton. We stopped at Coal Bank Pass but had plenty of climbing and keeping our eyes on the road. The last couple of miles descending into Silverton were simply awe inspiring.





Looking up from Coal Bank Pass, plenty of mountain left! On to Silverton!


Here I am with my ZRX1200R. Needed a bit more muscle this day vs. my KZ650 I took on the Four Corners Ride. What a great day to be out on a bike with good like minded friends!

Here are EddieM, SaxJonz, and Baldy110 enjoying the break before even more pucker moments and might I say treacherous road with ZERO run-off!


A few pictures of Silverton. They have a narrow gauge railroad you can ride to the various towns and along
some of the most beautiful mountain scenery anywhere!




After running the Million Dollar we turned onto CO Rt 62 at Ridgeway, CO. This was one of my absolute favorite roads for letting it hang out. This next photo, we are taking in a scenic break further south on the San Juan Scenic Byway between Telluride and Dolores. What a blast this entire day was!
