Ryan "rfranks" and I went out exploring the local territory on his KO and my HKO. It was a wide variety of terrain ranging from pave roads, dirt paths, gravel roads, and even rail road tracks. Note to self, USE CAUTION ON TRAIN TRACK BRIDGES. 50 Miles in all and I had a blast. These bike are so much better riding along side another. It great turning heads and getting praise from the old timers. Even kids think they are "cool".

I just cleaned mine up. I got very fortunate, no new nicks or scratches. Sorry no pictures, but there's some excellent momories. Drafting back and forth on a rural country road at 45 mph was the best. Almost having my front tire swallowed up in a large gap in the rail road ties doing 20 mph on a narrow train bridge was the scarest.

The weather has been beautiful here lately in Cental California. Middle to Upper 60's with a slight breeze and sunny all day. It's been the same for a week now. We have to enjoy it while we can. It won't be long before it will be stuck in the 100's.

We did another 60 miles today. Mostly paved, gravel, and dirt roads. We managed to find some pretty cool trails and a dry river bed to run around in. We have to enjoy the good weather. in a month or so, it will be too hot to ride.
These bikes are a blast to ride but, are 10 times better when you ride next to or with another.

That was a lot of fun Bill. My buddy George wants to get one now that he rode mine. I think I'm gonna do another ct70 and put the z50 on the back burner for awhile.

Sounds great! I'm looking forward to helping you out again. Another riding buddy would be great. What type of CT70 will the next be? Engine size?

One with a large displacement engine, like 150cc and up. I can't seems to find that 185cc monster I found the other day.
