Is that Goat Island?  Did you stay downtown?  Nice shots.  It's always sunny in western NY.  It's our well kept secret! 

Sorry I couldn't meet up with you yesterday. Have a safe trip!

So thats why the fireworks. We were sound asleep when I thought the Canadians were invading New York.    Did you ever see SouthPark The Movie ?  Doc

We stayed at the Comfort Inn at the point on Goat Island. What a beautiful park that is by the river. The Canadian side has the night life though.  Doc

 Forgot to mention its our Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend and that there might be fireworks over the falls    I hope you enjoyed them once you got over the shock    and I hope you had a nice ride up the North Coast of the US today   It was great to spend a bit more time with you guys and I look forward to the next time we get together.

We had a good time in Cleveland today. It was warm and sunny and I had a chance to visit the old neighborhood where I lived many years ago. The fall colors were beautiful.

Later that morning we rode over to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

...and met up with Scott & Stephanie (scotr) and their friends Cris & Kathy. This was quit a place to visit and we all really enjoyed our time there including lunch in town. Thanks you guys for showing us a good time and we hope to see you in SoCal someday.  Doc

Doc, you are making me jealous, cannot wait to follow in your footsteps.

[grandpadoc]

Before you see the next post...We are ok, just bruised and sore !!  Doc

We were on the Ohio Turnpike when the traffic stopped for several miles in front of us. I slowed to crawl and waved my hand to slow to the cars in back of us and about a hundred feet before I reached the stopped vehicle in front of us a Ford SUV hit us going over 50 mph.  Terry got thrown off the bike and I horsed the bike under control and kept it up and stopped a few inches from the vehicle in front of me. The trailer took most of the impact and probably saved our lives.
The SUV hit us so hard that it had to be towed away.
The hospital released Terry after checking her over, but she is hurting tonight. The hospital staff were wonderful to us and drove us to the tow impound yard to pick up our stuff and then drove us to the airport in Toledo to rent a car to get home. As far as the bike...the flood boards, case covers, lower fairing, crash bars on the left side are toast. The trailer hitch is bent, so the frame pobably got bent too.
Hey, we are alive and had a wonderful trip. Thanks for a great time in MV and all the folks that met up with us along the way.

Thank God you are ok! 

[Mrs Rooster]

 Lou I'm glad you guys are OK. Give Terry a hug for me. Are you shipping your bike home?

[DesertHOG]

Oh my gosh, this just makes me sick. I am so glad to hear that you and Terry are safe. Please give Terry my best and I hope she gets over her aches soon.
