Just had a very nice, but short trip out to San Jose and Vegas. Jriera went WAY above and beyond the call and picked me up in Vegas, schlepped my bags and me to the local BMW bike dealer to pick up my 1200GS rental and then schlepped my luggage to my hotel while I followed him on the bike. I owe him a night at the NRA Range!
Next morning, Tirebiter from the BMW bike forum on Pelican met me at my hotel and we had a super, approx. 200 mile ride, out to Valley of Fire State Park and Lake Meade. It's always a thrill to meet some far-flung Pelicanheads.
Check out some photos.
My feeble attempt to mimic the back cover of Neil Peart's book, "Ghost Rider":
Brock, aka Tirebiter, and his sweet ride:
Will definitely be doing this again. Next trip will be to buy the 1200GS I rented and ride it back home.
