It's not the Clark Bridge @ Alton, Illinois. Good try, but keep searching. I'm guessing it's somewhere in Europe?

Here is the Clark Bridge:

It can't be in Europe. Europe is far from The Dragon. This is a thread about The Dragon.

We'll probably all be plugging in our bikes by then.......along with your pacemaker and mine.

Maybe that will be the BMW "E" bike.

It's the Bill Emerson Memorial Bridge across the Mississippi in Cape Girardeau MO.

I understand the love of jugs...I've got a 1977 R75/7 and an R1200RT too... The K-Bike is awful smooth though.

+1. Seems to have turned into a general chat thread.

Who cuts your hair?
Want to talk about oil? Tires?

Search and see what you can find and post up. More riders with uncertain skill will return there with warmer weather.

DeSalvo, Team Latus and Triumph pulled off a nice tribute to Gary Nixon last year at Daytona. Jason with 8 laps to go was 8.457 seconds back and almost won.

Worth a watch.
