Hi all fair
weather riders...
We of course were scheduled for the loop ride to the dam
on Haines and return home but due to 39 road being out
we switched routes and went to Lewiston- had a great
lunch at Meriweather's, took in a taxidermy show at the
Red Lion and watched the Grande Ronde at HIGH WATER...
it was pretty awesome- just a reminder we ride to Lolo
Hot Springs on Saturday June 26, 2010.

This bike was built by me,
Jim Boatman, in 1972
It was a stock 1948 pan head. I cut the neck off, bent
the front legs forward, and added a nine inch piece and
welded the neck back on. It was called a goose
neck frame. Sportster tank and a 24 inch over stock
narrow Springer build by "Dick Allen". Midnight
blue with red pin striping, suicide shift, and a sup-up carb
from Jaguar, twelve inch with bars old school bike.
Was it hard to handle ?? not really. Great bike
should have kept it. Cost about $800.00 to build. Nobody
builds em anymore!
Your bike was you, we all built our own in the good old
days. |
 You
know your life is great when you take a vacation to Phoenix
Arizona and my friend and brother in Christ Jesus says to me
"take my Harley ride where ever you want to go". So
needless to say I did! I also connected and bonded with my
22-year old daughter Ashley. Here she is with me on Greg's
97' Dyna at Bike Week. And that's Greg and Deb his wife on
his hard tail. Life is great being in the wind.
Thanks Greg Love Ya Bro!!! Love you Ashley.
In Christ
