I jumped party lines and picked up a slightly used Ducati recently... The price was waaaay too cheap and I couldn't resist it. Good fun. No BMW in terms of all around usefulness, but good fun nonetheless. It wheelies way too easy :)

Just shot some pics of it recently:

No, the pass is south of here.

Montezuma's Castle is cool, I saw it about 5 or 6 years ago, but I have no pictures.

Pretty similar photos. I was running fast and late trying to make Great Basin before dark. I had also gone on reserve about 10 miles east of Ely and was hoping to find gas over the mountain.

...except for these... 60 years ago these 12 Cylinder Allisons used to power P58's... now they power one of the most notorious (in a positive way) Unlimited Hydro's... the sound is UNREAL!

Pity so many of those wonderful V12 aircraft engines (especially Merlins) where destroyed in boat racing, now parts are running out to keep the war bird aircraft flying.

My son wanted to ride his motorcycle and twisted my arm to go for a ride. There was a Hot rod swap meet scheduled at Petit Jean which is usially a good event. It is on the grounds of the Rockerfeller car museum. We were a little disappointed though... turn out was much less than normal. Here are a few pics of some of the interesting cars.
