Mid-South ride, eat, and meet

Cool old Zundapp



Probably a 2-stroke

Intersection of Beale St. and B.B. King-Ground Zero of American music in the USA.

If Tuktoyacktuk is a little to far for a weekend ride, Beale St. in Memphis, Tn. might be a doable deal. Bike nite is every Wednesday night.

Tucktoyaktuk, Tuctoyatuk, Tuktoyatuck, well spelling ain't my thing.

At Middleton-Movies

Good movie, totally unbelievable or Feckless, but cute. Movie begins and ends with 2 BMW 4 wheelers, which is why I noted it. FECKLESS. Bow ties, pot smoking, bycicle thieves, verbal witty repartee, library's, observatories, and dingalberries.

It's spelled Alaska life is too short to worry about spelling or proper pronunciation of that other word now if first letter was an f instead of t I would give pronunciation a shot

Well, I wasn't to good at the 3 R's either. barryg

Inavik, I can spell that. My third grade spelling is coming back to me. I before e except after something or another. I'm really good at punctuation and conjugation, whatever they are.

Inuvik, OK. Got it.

Happy Birthday United States of America!
The Fourth of July!

Even with all the problems we seem to have in our nation we are blessed to live here instead of anywhere else IMHO.

Here Ya Mike. Lot a things in this country don't look good. Kinda sad. Any way times change. I was born 7-27-53 the day the Korean War Armistice was signed. We don't win wars now. We kinda maintain the status quo. Any way this is for all those who served the country in war and peace. Thank You.

Cool '56 T-Bird. Was over at Leo Goff's in Eads, Tn. It was one of his buddies car.

Leo's Man Cave

After a long arduous building spree the man cave is almost ready for the grand launch.



We was watching a Clint Easrtwood movie. Pale Rider, I think.

It's gonna be a really cool man hangout, with a decidedly motorcycle motif.

The red '55 Indy Streamliner was raced by the race team and I was a team member. The car was purchased by the team owner and he was in charge of the purchase and the car build. It was suppose to be turn key and race ready. The car was taken to Memphis Motorsports Park to be put through its paces. It barely ran. The team owner had egg on his face. He had to go to Leo and ask Leo what it would take to make it run. Leo did an extensive evaluation of the car. He informed the boss, that yes he could make the car run properly and it could be raced in the vintage series. It would take Leo about 2 years to do the deal. It was a very complex resto for Leo to do this job. First thing was a rolling engine and body A Frame was built to work on the car. Then Leo slowly and methodically got the car to run. He would address several problems, then do the work. Out to the track, do the tests. Some things worked, well most the worked. But it was a long term project. Just loading and unloading the car was a project. Special tools, jigs, and fixtures had to be machined just to
handle and haul the car. What Leo did was really a unbelievable task and he did it. You the Man, Leo. I got to see the work done upclose and personal.
