Well I certainly don't claim to be as talented of a photographer as many of you that have posted in these 50 plus pages...

But I thought I'd hsare a few of my favorites I've snapped off in recent months and such...

Some track time with the girls for some charity calendar work I helped with a couple years ago:

Some obligatory nature shots (how could I not have these living in Colorado?)

Yepper. Welcome, Vance!

Ahhh....the infamous Alfred Packer....I know exactly where this marker is in the Littleton Cemetary. Always thought that naming the CU cafeteria after him was poetic justice to the memory of an alleged cannibal.

Nice pics and welcome...

Yeah - finding his headstone was sort of my "indoctrination" to the Littleton area of Colorado when I first moved here some ... ack... 24 years ago now! I knew the story but couldn't believe he was buried in Littleton. So I went looking. I recently got the itch to actually photograph the bloody thing.

Anyway - thanks for the welcomes one and all... hopefully soon enough I'll be able to continue my tour of the Euro-bike sector with the acquisition of a 99 R1100S - thus taking my tour to Germany. :D

There is a picture in Moab of an old barnstormer flying through this arch. I met the guy too over Thanksgiving. He's about 80 now.

Tirebiter 03-01-2008 03:39 PM

Great shots as always Craig.....would have loved to have witnessed the arch fly through....I imagine that it would have been quite the scene. How long ago the the guy fly through that puppy?

Look at the two corners visible... both have been cut (bu drivers/riders) continually as there is a build up of debris on the outside of both!
Pretty much a one lane road......

Nasty :)

You guys get many head-on's in those parts?
