Here are some pics of a fun weekend ride that highwayjammin and I had down in Southern Indiana. We rode around all day Saturday together! Thanks so much to Jim and his wife for being so hospitable to me. Jim and his wife are truly awesome people, and I can't wait to go ride with them again!

Here are our bikes down in Nashville, IN. We just so happened to run into the "Bean Blossom Festival", that was going on. There were tons of bikes around that day.




We ended up in the small town (and I mean really small) town of "Story". A pretty neat place consisting of one building and three houses, all pre-dating 1850. The town is supposedly haunted, or at least the building/restaurant there.





Here are a couple non-bike related pics. I'm quite the car guy, and we saw these at the gas station. I just had to have pics!



Well there you go. Sorry no riding video. Didn't have a good chance to set up the camera. I had a blast the whole day! The roads in southern Indiana made me think I was in the mountains. Seriously, if anyone ever has the chance to ride around down there, do it! It's pretty cool.

I wish I knew...scratcher. I've seen pictures of that car before, but I can't remember what it's called. It is British though, I do know that.

That car is about a 1985 Delorean.  By John Delorean from General Motors engineering department, if I'm not mistaken.  All stainless steel body panels.

Found it.. its a Morgan three wheeler, anywhere from 1927-39 as far as I can tell from historical photos. Either the "Super Sport" or "Sports Model" I think.

Ah, that makes sense. I've seen pictures of it before, I just couldn't remember what it was. Morgan makes sense though. In retrospect, I should have just asked the guy. He was there for a little while. That Delorean was cool though. Can't say I've ever seen one in person.
