    This was the Bar at the Hotel we stayed at. Funniest thing I ever saw, Funny there was nothing about a Dress code. It was a rough crowd down there. The Comet guys know where the action is.

Mid 80's at a bar just west of town was a sign that said no colors.I thought it said no coloreds.I was perplexed being in Minnesota.I guess they had a lot of bikers there.

    Heres the official tow vehicle that we brought back from Bowling Green. Just finished up on the custom made reciever hitch. Just need to wire it in and we will be ready for the Nationals like back in the day.The wagon is a Kick in the pants to Drive. Now I can drag home all sorts of Comets.

    Ken;KOOL VIDEOS!!! I see the "red light bandit" followed you back to Colorado!!!!How did it run up on the Mountain? The wagon looks great,I think you may need airbags on the rear to keep it off the stops with a trailer on there. ROY.
