I'm upset I missed this. Been dealing with a new addition to my family. I welcomed a little boy in February and the riding has taken a back seat. My Vespa (and the missus's Buddy Italia) has taken a back seat to my kid lately. He's a quarter Italian so i'm guessing he will be riding a fine Italian machine like his parents one of these days. As of now, who knows when i'll take a long trip out again.

Video of ride down from Mindoro Cut. Not a GoPro, but gives an idea. Should have had the camera facing backward to catch the riders. Nerd emoticon

That kid is going to give you lots of enjoyment in the future. I was lucky enough to have my son Sam along for this ride, making it a very special time for both of us. Enjoy him now and in the future. You are in for a treat.

Small Taverns in Wisconsin
Bill Leuthold,

Thanks for remembering the bar bill in that Tavern
in Mindoro. Yes, believe it or not, three beers and
three sodas $11.00. I was flabbergassed - I gave
the guy a $5 tip. I have been to long in big city
price shock.

Love those small town bars. Another adventure on
the scooter trail.
