It seems the proper term is " giallo " . . .

This fine fellow brought an iceboat-load of enthusiasm to share. 

Watching for him to check in after his long drive home . . .

Just realized I needed to acknowledge @Skip's excellent tune on my throttle bodies.  She purred like a big kitten on the way home.  Thanks , man!

Yes, finally.  

 

My pix of SSR XX.

 

Lots of reasons for my tardiness in gathering, culling, and adding captions, including general sloth and lethargy.  

 

These are, if not quite ready for prime time, they are probably "good enough."  

 

Even if barely that, consider that I started with 452, and deleted 300+.  In other words, could have been worse.  

 

As usual with my pix, opens in “collage landscape,” and you can hover your cursor over the individual to see the captions, but those are easier to read in slideshow format.

I figured you were with McGregor and Boorman taking the long way home.

 

Brilliant travelogue as usual Bill.

I kept looking down the road for this @footgoose cat to roll in . . .

XX plans were scrubbed due to my good friend and riding brother having lost a gallant battle with lymphoma just a few weeks out from the weekend. He loved the time we spent at the spine raids, and thoroughly enjoyed the bourbon and chatter at the evening doings. He was looking forward to bringing his new bike, a KTM 790 Duke. Some of you will know him as the not-a-guzzi-yet guy that brought a different bike every time.

Thanks for letting us know. Godspeed, Bill. You are missed.
