My Freedom Days
Well these are some of my pics from back when i had my scooter, Most are from when i took off to Colorado to camp and also go to a Men's conference with John Eldridge"Wild at Heart".I had a such a good time i just didn't realize that shortly after all this i would be forced to sell my bike.
When we moved up here i wasn't making enough money to justify keeping and making a bike payment-so i sold it - i miss having a bike and WILL have another one some day.
This is some of the people i road my bike with in La, the Pastor and his wife are standing right beside me, that's me to the far left-
Some of the awesome sights in Colorado
This is an early pic it is from my first ride up to Mena ,ark-It is right before my wreck- they said that i just didn't turn going through a left turn , i went off the road going about 30 mph, the bike flipped in the air and i went up went about 15 feet and came down on my back, my pastor said that when he got to me i was the color of my jeans, and i wasn't breathing- he tilted my head back and i gasped for breath- he had thought that i was dead-they prayed and then i came to, i started asking what happened- i was diagnosed at the hospital with a concussion and a compression fracture of t12 . I recovered in a couple of weeks and then road my bike over the next three years , about 30 thousand miles which includes the above trip to Colorado

The trailer is something that i built- we had the cargo cover from a Mazda van- and i bought a little trailer and mounted it on the trailer then painted it and put stickers on the cover, it pulled very nice-
This photo is after i moved up to il, and i drove down to miss. to spent the weekend with my son ,we camped and road around,I have many fond memories of that trip, i am glad that we had that time together.

I did not realize what kind of Harley you had. That was a nice bike, did it ever overheat? I am having so much fun on my bike.
No,i had no problems with it overheating- i had to replaced the back tire on it every 6-7 thousand mile or so and had to replace the stator(like a alternator)once other than routine maint. it was all good
I have to ask, why did you not turn the corner? but go straight?
Uncle AT1 - Andy said you had a cool motorcycle!!!
April 4 - And a happy birthday to you my brother! Have a great day.
