Thanks to Darryl Cannon and the great photographers at KillBoy.com, I have just ordered hi-rez versions of the above pics taken by Darryl and his crew.

Tho since Honda announced the 2005 sportbike lineup and my bike lust-o-meter is very, very hi for the CBR600RR shown below,

I'm still loving my new home just 20 miles from the dragon and my Kawasaki 250R shown in the pics above.

Who says you can't love 2 bikes ;-)

I rode the dragon a few more times last nite (Saturday), but weekends are just too busy / crowded to do much serious dragon-practice.

I might have 50-80 runs under my belt, but I met a guy with a CBR600RR tonite who guesses he has 8 THOUSAND! He lives very close (as I now do) and has been riding the dragon every day for 15+ years.

He tells me that tho winter can be cold and rainy at times, there are definitely some nice opportunites to ride the dragon even in the winter (December - Feb. or so) here.

Stay tuned for more dragon pics and news as they develop!
