Thanks again for the hospitality Forrest. It was great to meet you guys. Sorry we didn't get to ride out together!

I have been in touch with Mike0537 making plans to take the flag to ID. I may have picked up another MT KZ Rider to join me for the hand-off. I believe someone from WA has already joined in to pick it up from Mike. Worse case scenario is I drive it through ID to WA.

All you guys are rolling up some serious milage. Riding out West must be a joy. Kudos to Forrest and Saxjonz for traveling all the way from their home turf of Chicago in order to keep the flag moving. GoodFastNCheap and everybody in the West deserve a good amount of applause as well. The KZ's are proving their reliability. You guys are class acts on classic bikes ;)

Forrest and I would like to send out a special thanks to Goodfastncheap and his beautiful wife for their hugely generous gesture of putting us up in their place and his wife for making dinner and then breakfast. Wow! Then going for a spirited ride after through Iowa with Upncmmr before leaving for Jackson, Wyoming.
As if that wasn't enough they drove up to meet us on return journey so we wouldn't have to add more mileage and time to return trip. His fabulous wife made up a smorgasborg. The best damned chocolate chip cookies EVER.
Forrest was so happy you offered up your fuzzy, exotic fuzzy balls.

You are absolutely correct. I'm very fortunate to have such great riding terrain. I made the KZ1000 work had this weekend. She did great but frame gussets are now a higher priority.
