...around the area where I now live, why do I love tyre marks in the sand so much?

Ralf, spare us the profile shots in Speedo in the future. This thread is NOT the anti- Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition. LOL

Do not take too seriously

In the defense of Ralf (OMG, I can't believe I am doing this!), have seen pictures of guys in full leathers on a sportsbike hanging off with their beer support draped over the tank that looked a lot more ummm distasteful.

Isn't Ralf from Germany................... I think we are lucky he was wearing a Speedo to begin with.

Jeff, I was sea-sick most o the time when we were under sail... I just am, fact of life! But I just like the times in between sailing so much that I accept this as a given! Thank you, Gijs... mind you that the cup I was holding when driving the Dinghy, was Ginger Ale... somewhat kept me reasonably un-queasy during the in-between sailing stints! Gotta go now and pick up my new (used) bike!  Pictures later!

Looks like you had a fun trip, Ralf. What was that, the Caribbean? I forgot where you said you were going.
Don't you have a pair of speederhosen?

A friend of mine sent me this e-mail with these pics (he didn't take them):
"In Zimbabwe, Africa, you will find the magnificent Victoria Falls, at a height of 128m (420 ft.). The location is known as the "Devil's Swimming Pool". During the months of September and December, people can swim as close as possible to the edge of the falls without falling over. These falls are becoming well known amongst the "radical tourist" industry, when more and more people search for the ultimate experience."

Great photos guys.....
Some of your images are so good average folks may be ashamed to post theirs... So to bring the curve back down a little here are some of mine from a little hike up Pinnacle Mountain the wife and I did with the family... Last week I took the my bride, and kids for a little stroll in a field of easter Lillies.  This weekend I told her that we had to find something a little more challenging... Lets climb this..  Part way up... you can see the trail is just big rocks..  vegetation is quite hardy.  Half way up..  Time for a break for the wife....   No speedos here...
