Hey guys,
It has been awhile since I posted, nothing new on my rebuild of "Rusty" but I did have a great time at the Rockets Across America (RAA) a few weeks ago in Richwood, WV. If you ever get a change to ride there do it! We did New River Gorge and wow, what a beauty. And knowing the old highway now is just one-way, makes one really think about the old days before the new bridge was built when this road was two-way traffic.

Six hours later we arrived at the Four Seasons Lodge in Richwood, WV. Hit five soaking rains en route.
Sitting on the old New River bridge. I have the red shoulders and helmet on towards the right, and my pretty Pillion has the white helmet.
Stopped at a closed bars, dang it.

This is Glen of Highland Feast catering out of NC. We hired him to cater our evening meals. What a blessing this turned out to be. His menu of meats is amoazing to say the least and oh so delicious. And being on site with us, no one had to worry about hitting restaurants after the day's ride.
Red that beautiful red Rocket in the center. It was the only bike to crash over the week.
Here it is. He lost it on the outisde of a curve and pulled the arrow sign out of the ground. Broke his left collar bone but he was ATGATT so fared well.
Even the Corbin bags stayed attached, that is amazing all by itself.
Here is another picture of Highland Feast catering when he arrived.
For some reason, many other pictures will not load right now. I will try to get more of the scenery as soon as I can.
