Re: Unexpected Change....

Just about the same as the V-star 650 I just bought, only a different name in Europe. Is it new or used? I know just how you feel. It's a great bike. Congratulations! :2tup:

Re: Bigger bike and no payments

Yes, I can relate to that feeling. I have had non-traditional jobs for a woman most of my life. I went to a Blessing of the Bikes ceremony at Starved Rock, IL a few years ago. The Catholic priest...

Re: Cave-in-Rock, IL and Land Between the Lakes, KY

Re: Cave-in-Rock, IL and Land Between the Lakes, KY

They did have an impressive amount of lepidoptera if you like them. The wild turkeys, owls,
