Roadtrippin'
The man is riding the shit out of it. Suicide clutch, jockey shift, long front fork.
Early Harley-Davidson racers removed the clutch return spring to ensure the clutch stayed in the engaged position throughout the race. This practice soon caught on with other riders. The fanciful slang term "suicide clutch" was coined by those who could not operate the foot clutch proficiently enough to ride a tank shift (or hand shift) motorcycle in normal traffic.

On the road
Yesterday we had a ride throug the neighborhood, did some tourist things. Yesterdaynight we thought about a guestbook, to put in the barntrailer. Maybe it would be nice to write on the trailer. So Jonathan had the honour to be the first one. "I think it's the first guestbook with a bed in it" he said. He might be right. ;-) This morning he left for Toulouse in the south.
Michel, Jonathan and me.

Un bon ensemble
Yesterday we had a very busy day. We picked up Jonathan from the highway where he was waiting for us. He almost lost his sprocket so we put the bike in Michels pick-up truck. On the road home it started to rain cats and dogs and Michels car broke also. So at the end i towed a Deathtraps chop in a Nissan with my Defender. And then we became shitfaced...
Punta Bagna
Last year at the Punta Bagna, sunny.... Countdown has begun. Rik and Lindy are ready to come over to make it an outragious weekend.
Support
M3C
Today a meeting in Le Creusot. A small trip in very nice weather (the first one, in nice weather...), couple of beers, meet some new old friends. And they challenged me to arrange a unicyclegame (un bataille de unicycle) in Holland. To beat the cheeseheads, yeah right... "You must contact the Rogues" they say. "For a date somewhere in september" Let's give it a try...
The green boattail
Very beautiful Buick Riviera "boattail" today in Chalon sur Saone. For me one of the coolest American classics. Wanted..... ;-)
