Any of you Minnesota/Wisconsin people go on the Minnesota river valley flood run? Very nice day for it, a bit windy though. There was easily a few thousand motorcycles out for the run, maybe even more. Prescott was jam packed! I'm still breaking in the S3, almost 300 miles on it so far. There were a few stretches that I didn't get to vary the rpm's much, hope it didn't affect anything. :???:

Did you make it to Minnieska? Saw a black S3 with an arrow can on it.

Me, white with Zard.

*****, thought I was the only S3 there amongst all those bikes. (just kidding) Nope, wasn't me. I still have the stockers on, MIVV lowmount will be here in a couple of weeks though. This was my first time doing the flood run, I didn't expect so many motorcycles. Good to hear that there were some other S3's in attendence.

Lots of V-Twin stuff, couple cool paint jobs and lots of drunks. - Some idiot drunk clipped a bike on the way out of Alma tipping over three bikes...

Eye candy was present as always.

Yes, the eye candy was excellent. I noticed a lot of cops on the ground and in the air--they were everywhere. Nice pictures too!

Air Cops :roll: They were the idiots that clocked the RC-51 (stock) at 205 mph a couple years ago. I'm pretty sure that made national news.

Anyway if you're ever if the La Crosse/Winona area give a shout! Be happy to show ya some of our better roads.

Cheers

dfib, thankyou for the offer and I will definitely take you up on it if i'm in your area. I've heard there are some great roads down there.

GPZ1170--Me and another friend are going to take a bike trip for a long weekend down to Monroe, Wisconsin to visit some friends this summer. I was there earlier this spring and noticed you've got a lot of nice roads around your area as well. Should be a lot of fun.
