W O W man.....
I have not had soooo much fun and laughed sooo much in years.
The Minny gang did a great job to get all the remaining "FrankenTriples" going and they were a pisser to watch buzz around the track.
VERY glad to report that even with a few minor spills, no one got hurt and the entire weekend was fantastic.
Rick and Lisa were once again superb hosts and took such good care of us all.
I dont have 1200 pics but I will post up a good bunch out of the 200+ I took on my website and supply a link.
Once I get all the short video clips edited I will try to shoot them out to YouTube.
Rick let me take an all original 72 H2 out for the last ride we took.
What an absolute gas that was too.
Like Cody reproted, Henry's custom was amazing.
Cant say I have ever seen any motor in any vehicle with a throttle response like that beast.
Right friggin on Henry and thank you CR for all you did to help him complete it.
I know you were indeed looking down on him and the bike with a grin you couldn't wash off.
Its a work of art and runs fantastic. KUDOS. :clap:

Now if we were all succesful in OUR efforts, we may have convinced "the old fella" (sorry Rick LOL) to keep the estate for at least one more get to gether next year.

I have only one regret and that is, that a lot of people missed out on being there this weekend.
It was truly an event of a lifetime for us and I believe RB as well.

Thanks again
