I had more fun on my 1100S this weekend than you did!







(see the bats in that one?)

(see the eagle in that one?)

(stars at night)

A last minute overnight camping trip with my buddy. 2 hours north of NYC. No one else there...3,000 acres.

Cubans cigars, stolen chicken eggs, single-malt out of a vintage flask, and we snuck up on a bald eagle!!! Best $20 vacation ever.

Enjoy,
-Eff

2 Questions:

1. What is the airhorn for on your bike? Bears?

2. I've seen pics of your bike loaded down including one rather large woman on the back but how'd you manage to haul the canoe?

Nice pics and looks like a great time with no one to bother you....

At first I thought you were roughing it.. till I noticed the Electric wiring and box on the pole behind the tent!!!!
