Hello fellows riders, just to let you know I'm home and rested. Thanks to all for a great time, and the mateship and support we aussies received. Flight from DC to Lax to Sydney was a nightmare. Still, hard act to follow riding to The Wall, Arlington Cemetry, Vietnam and Legacy Vets USA, and the Rolling Thunder. Has a great ride over the bay for seafood on Memorial Day, traffic was heavy, but thank god for motorbikes. To Platoon Three, many thanks, and cold beer, hot women, and fast motorbikes. Good Riding, Skully(ghostrider)(ex FNG).

An honor riding with you mate.  Normally would render a hand salute but out of respect for our friends and allies down under, here's a hand over the heart with wishes to be well (and quick recovery for those still in the states.)

Little something to remember us by...

Oz and I enjoyed your company on the RFTW. We hope to keep in touch and maybe even see you again some day. Glad that you made the trip here and that you made it home safely.
Never forget what they have done to keep us free!

Skully, Glad you fellows are home safe. Sorry to learn of the accident involving the Aussie couple. Will say a prayer for them. We met briefly in the Pentagon parking lot. Kerry introduced us. I have a couple of photos of you guys with myself. If you're interested, message me back. I think you can get my address now that I've joined this forum. As you mates say, "G'day" to all of you!
It's not about the motorcycle.

SO glad you hear you are home safe and sound.  I got to talk with you only once or twice, but I enjoyed it immensely.  Miss giving you all your morning hugs!  Hope we meet again.
