That's exactly why I dislike the skyway. For one it's not technical at all and it's a road that is only fun at close to 100 mph the whole time.

Yeah I was pushing close to 90 - 100 The whole way...It was a fast paced road.

Luckily for us it was on a slower day and there was not much traffic at all.

Too crowded and too many cops it sounds like to me. Here, we have pretty decent roads that are empty of traffic and cops.

eh, you just need to go with someone local and know what times to go. Hell I made passes by a smokey shooting me with radar to see how fast I could go on the DRZ on knobbies.

Fair enough. By the time I make it there, you'll probably be half way around the world on the GS though.

Was stealing some pics for the TWO thread at ADV. God this rally was fun. We need to recapture what we had going for this rally and translate it into this years in september. Last year wasn't as fun.

I think what we had was a common place for us all to chill... last year we all had cabins all spread out... so some people hung out at their cabins while others swam and others chilled on the deck.

yeah, that was a big difference. Plus, it seemed like we did more stuff as a group. People seemed to be splitting up and doing their own rides a lot at the last one.

yeah I think it would have been better if all of us were closer our cabin and amroks were way out in guam compared to all the others, but I did like the main cabin/restaurant area.
