One of this sites great members is due to be away from riding and hanging with for a year, big bummer for us! To know Mark is to love him. I can only hope this next year is a quick one and we get to experience Marks infectious smile real soon.
So as a way to see each-other before Mark departs,we rode...Meet up was at the Famous Neptunes Net in Malibu, Calif. Movie stars, swimming pools within walking distance of the great Pacific Ocean?
Van was there on one beautiful 2012 Street Glide.

We took many pictures on this part of P.C.H., but only a few were good enough to share, sorry you all.

It was about this point I noticed a 2009 Orange Road Glide in the middle of the pack? Where did that come from?
Turns out Fred had hooked up with us during a short time we all got split up. I don't know if Fred is a member here, I hope so, he is a real cool guy, and his bike is sick, in a good way.

These 2 are going to miss each-other, they have never been apart for a year since they first met.

That is all we have to share.

To my friend Mark,
Thank you for you friendship, smile, and riding skills. You WILL be missed during this coming year, and if someone doesn't get Karen out so we can see her we are going to be double

. So keep yourself safe and connected to this Great site.

It was a great day and I met more outstanding people as we bid a temporary farewell to Mark and wish him the best on his journey to a foreign country, God bless you and be with you on your venture.

I Think that's a great Idea Van, the way she handled that Suzuki I think she is very ready, heck she already has the Scream'in Eagle leather jacket. SOMEONE needs to have a chat with Greg on the subject.

VANAMAL · « **Reply #63 on:** November 20, 2011, 05:20:03 PM »

I agree. The 05 is low!! Great bike for the shorter legged folks. Suzie and the melanie and suzan all ride great. Not to mention terri shes great too!!

Ironhorse · « **Reply #64 on:** November 20, 2011, 09:16:05 PM »

Then Greg and Joan will have His-n-Hers matching SE Leather Jackets and Yellow CVOs. Not a bad combination.

We wish you a safe and swift adventure. Sorry we could not be there for the ride.

GregKhougaz · « **Reply #66 on:** November 21, 2011, 01:40:18 PM »

A great day with great friends! I think Mark enjoyed his "send off" ride. I'm sure he'll miss Karen while away. Joan loved the ride though she was on the Suzuki. 80 mph on 798 cc's has to be an adventure! I'm sure she'll be ready for an upgrade soon so Van need not rush to sell the "Nanna." All the bikes were beautiful but I have to say that Van's SESG and Mike's SEUC were over the top!

That stereo on the '12 SESG was fab but you have to hear Fred's in his '09 SERG. His stereo is from another universe! Looking forward to another ride soon!

I didnt get a chance to talk with fred about his music set up but it was impressive! The bass was banging so hard i thought the saddle bags were going to come off!
