| Re: Took a little ride today I was ready to accuse you of  , especially on that second pic, until I looked at the date of the post. However, there IS the issue of the "floating hand" in pic #3...  Whatever, that road in pic #2 looks like the tits!! |

| Re: Took a little ride today Ya, these pics were taken a couple of weeks before the SS1000, which just happened to follow part of the same roads. The "floating hand" were some gawking tourists who wouldnt get out of my shot. |
