Journey of the Hawk.

Well, It is a new month and a new bandwidth limit for me on Flickr. Here are the pictures of one of my latest trips on the bike out on highway 66. I had to take it for a spin after putting on a new front tire and doing an oil and filter change. The total milage for the 3 days ( I didn't ride any the second day, just visiting) was over 400 miles. Weather was very overcast the first day, but temps were perfect.

A pic of the bike overlooking the Ohio river at Leavenworth. Can you beleive this bike is 21 years old?

And a picture through the mirror that turned out well.

This bridge is outside the town of Rockport.

Doesn't look that big from the picture, but this is a pretty big hill. This is on one of the VERY curvy areas of this road. At the bottom (behind me in the picture) is a very sharp 150-160 degree turn. It's a scary one becuse there is always gravel in it and slowing down after this big hill is hard.

This one is also on the big hill, but looking down. I don't think you can see the curve, but trust me it's down there. It really sneaks up on ya.

I tried to get a picture of myself with this sign, but this tuned out to be the best one. I still didn't get the entire sign, but my arm was neither long enough, nor my lense wide enought to get it all in.

Here's a better picture of the sign.

This would be an awesome place to live. It is out in the middle of nowhere, but I'm sure you could see for miles.
House on the hill

I was woken up early while at my Mom's house so I figured that I'd take some pictures of the rising sun since it looked to beautiful. It's currently my background image on my work PC.

Well, that's it for now. I've started uploading 800x600 pixel images because with the full resolution images I was running out of pace on Flickr to quickly. Should you want a larger size of any of them, feel free to email me.
