    I appreciate that!!! Branson wouldn't be that far out of my way for the ride home. I will have to talk to the wife about that one. I am sure she wouldn't have a problem with that. I will head that way if she doesn't want to South Dakota during Sturgis..:rolleyes:

    Us Flatlanders understand alright. Love to get into mountains whenever possible. Maybe we appreciate them even more. If that's possible.

    You're right, Charlie. Mountain riding is greatly appreciated by this flatlander, too. I got a little taste just before I had to turn back last month.

    HarleysLR, that sounds like a fun time. I have heard Pikes Peak is a challenging ride.
