2006 & 2005 PA Tours:  Trip reports, photos and ride directions from our tours of covered bridges, barns and local breweries.

2006 Honda Homecoming:  Thanks to Gibby & Merlyn for opening the Resort to a bunch of us from Honda Homecoming.  You can get the usual photos from others, but I bet you never saw a video of Gibby's dogs and their frisbee act.  Watch a video of Wigglebutt & Dufus.  Wigglebutt chases the frisbee, while Dufus nips him in the rear!  In the background, Harley whimpers, as he did not get to run along.

October 2006:  Took a trip to the Wingstock event from the GL1800 board, down in Woodstock, GA.  They have the same mountains we have in PA and great roads!  Met many new people, including a local couple and a couple from Brazil.

The 2006 Honda Hoot was my first Hoot on a GL1800.

Found a vendor who will swap out your GL1800 wheels for chrome ones.

On 3 Dec 2005, I took a ride to Hawk Mountain.

Little Lenny Cotton upgraded to a GL1800.  Photos from Paul.

How fast can a crash happen?  In less than a heartbeat!  Witness a crash.

The PA Covered Bridge Tour on September 18, 2004 set a new record:  rain!  Despite hurricane Ivan, we managed to have a 'Flooded Bridge' Tour of Lancaster County.
