Just back from Dave's Farm. Sitting in the yard enjoying the weather!
The photo is from a trip a few weeks ago. My wife is sitting on our bike as we ferry across Puget Sound from Vashon Island to Port Orchard.
We have so many awesome ferry rides here in Washington State, and at most of them, the bikes get to go to the front of the line.
Nothing prettier than sitting out on the deck watching the water, the birds, the sealife, etc. go by as you float along on a lazy afternoon.
Send me your favorite ride shot!

Cycle Pictures
I currently have an 83 KZ550 H2 (GPZ) as my daily driver. A 1974 KZ 400 S2 as my classic and a 1981 Honda XL 500 S (not pictured) to bang around with.
Pictures of the bikes I used to have and would take back in a minute are my favorite of all time, a 1983 VF750F (Interceptor) and a super classic, the 1978 Yamaha SR 500 (Thumper). Those along with a few 125 and 250 kept me riding when I was a kid.
My worst mistake was to move from a pro choice state (Helmets that is) to a helmets mandatory state. That is when I sold the Interceptor since I needed to strap on a lid to just go around the block and could not stand it. Eleven years went by without a single ride. What a waste. Well I couldn't take it any more so I saw the KZ 400 for sale at $200. She was a runner but pretty beat up so I spent some money for new paint and upholstery and got back to riding in 2001. Then along came the other two and a couple of dirt bikes for the kids. Lets say there is not a lot of room in the garage.
I hope you all keep aware and stay safe.

Here’s a shot of a friend on a H-D deluxe and me with my ’02 UMC Fat Pounder for the website. Also one of me close-up. We were taking a ride into the foothills north of Boise, Idaho to an old mining town named Idaho City for a nice steak dinner and pie Ala Mode. I look happier than him in the picture because he lost a bet and had to buy!
thx,
Curtis
