Oh wait....one more.  This one is near and dear to me.  Down at the Sacramento River....gave my daughter her first ride.  Just around the parking lot a couple of times but she loved it.  This little girl is now....well, we'll just say she's in her 30s.

Hey JC,

I see your knack of creative photography has been with you a long time.

As always, good job and thanks for sharing.

BTW, good to see that you will be back in your own saddle soon.

Beautiful new ride, and I wish you a wonderful Christmas time ride.

Take care & ride safe.

Yea, let's keep this thread going.  If you got em, post em.  We all want to reminisce....feel young again.  :2vrolijk_21:

Grizzly, you going to the Ouray GTG?  If you decide to get down this way again, let me know ahead of time. :2vrolijk_21:
