Heading out in the morning with two Seeley 750s in the van.

Making a stop off at the International Norton Rally up in the Catskill Mountains and will do a tech session with Jim Comstock. Then depart Thursday morning for Mid Ohio - certainly the most insane vintage extravaganza I've ever known. 40,000 of your closest friends kicking tires.

Everyone is welcome in our garage. #11.

Come say hello.

This is disturbing. I hope this is a cry for help.

Vulin · Jul 19, 2011

ah I cant blame her too much, its atleast a good reason. I was just hoping to get a chance to see Kenny race.

What constitutes a GOOD reason? Shoe shopping, Apple picking, nature walk????

A word from the wise...
" When mother is happy, everyone is happy."
A word from me...
' Well sometimes."
Good luck boys, lets see the Trophies.

Well, we are having our first child in December. We find out the sex this week, so she is having a gender release party for friends and family. So I'd be in the dog house if I skipped it.

Gender release party. I just had to repeat that.

Ahh, kid stuff. Get ready for lots of that happening. I'm 5+ years in and it's only getting more busy. Summer activites for the 2 boys, then school in the fall. I spend my days making sure they don't kill each other. Some days it's a close call.

Gender WHAT??!!! Hi everybody! We're having a girl. Now get out! Hahaha!
You know... there wont be any other men there. Just a bunch of cackling chicks talking about baby stuff. Go to the races!

Vulin · Jul 20, 2011

haha there will be a few men there, but they will be coming with their wives who are dragging them along

GRM 450 · Jul 20, 2011

Maybe you could take them to the races with you?
That way you all get out of the girls way, they will have a better time and so will you.

caddy chris · Jul 21, 2011

Hey, im just playing. Fam first. There'll be plenty of races. Congrats on the baby! Mine was the best thing ever happened to me.

72westie · Jul 21, 2011

I know its not a Norton, but I will be racing against a Manx

Can't wait for Mid-ohio!

Vulin · Jul 22, 2011

You guys are killing me with the pics! I'm happy she is letting
me keep the bike. I did register for the raffle for the 2 Z1000's, so I have my fingers crossed!
