Ultra-deluxe! Today I picked up my
new (2004 with 4688 miles) motorcycle! My Baxter (and
riding) buddy Richard West rode the bike to where I'm
storing it.
My 16 hr. Rider Safety program begins 8/2 and the bike
will remain stationary until completion in late August.
I've begun reading the course text and also have several
well reviewed rider-skills books via Amazon. Today I
began shopping for a (full-face) helmet.
Notice that several of the photos show the bike with the
touring bags removed. That's the salesman's Model T
Ford in the background.

"Here are a few images
for you enjoyment---the complete design and color
scheme is in, but it must all be gone over again to
strengthen colors and sharpen lines---the photos may
not show the splotchiness and inconsistencies of black
and colors. So really the work is just barely past
half way complete.
"Obviously my design is not a picture representing a
thing, but is an ideogram (look that up in your
dictionary) representing my being connected with the
universe and the universe's connection with the
infinite.
"The center figure
is the sacred geometric Hunab Ku goddess of the
Mayans, which is the window between the infinite and
this universe---brings all movement and measure (life
process and energies). The blue and orange
intermeshing rays and what they are about I'll not
bother you w/ now." - Joe
