Eclipse trip day 4

– after an interesting night camping with the girls, we wake up and her dad is big mc guy

– Steve took us on an hour long ride around the lake and mountains. He was on a moto guzzi griso

– let’s just say Adam Jordan would not approve of steves riding speed. He was ripping

– one of the girls bf had a right hand drive Toyota 4 runner he had imported from Japan. 

– left the girls and went back down to the lake spot to wait for the eclipse 

– bunch of people down there hanging, swimming, boozing

– eclipse was really cool. 100% coverage so it legit looked like a black circle with a glow ring on outter edge. Could take glasses off for 2 min. Never see that again in my life so pretty happy about it

– was a weird dusk for a long time. Temp dropped and it was cold. Then almost pitch black. Could kinda see stars. Was def wild

    Rad that you guys got to see 100% totality. Looking like a perfect trip so far. That last pic is cracking me up. Devo-Ed. “Is he not a man, bro?”

    Damn this is looking awesome. I wish “Harley Guys” weren’t excluded from cool stuff like this. Maybe next year…. oh wait once in a life time.

    Wow, that looks like an -awesome- pair of days.

    JDM land cruiser and a guzzi ADV bike at one house… in rural NC? Thats as rare as the eclipse.

    @mike – your Harley wouldn’t make it
    @steve – you should’ve seen his daughter

cb500t seat part 2 of 3

This isn’t the biggest update but it shows what I’m working towards. I’m using the back half of a rusted out 500t tank to make my seat cowl. I wanted to slim it down so I cut out a 1 3/4″ section and welded it back together. Mock up.
