Oh good we won't have anyone picking on our assistant Regional Leader because he rides a Harley Davidson. You know I'd have your back on most everything else Kevin......but I might have to turn a blind eye if you owned a H.D.. ;)

Keep having fun and post more photos. What else do you have planned other than riding?

Maui ride

Day 2: First breakfast with live entertainment included along with us were James neighbors Dave and Dianne, then off to the winery for taste testing ( pineapple wine) and site seeing. Best was saved for last, run on the north side of the island. Very windy, very narrow, one lane most of the way, 180' hair pin turns with no guard rails and a long way down. Deb was a little nervous but cowboy'd up the whole way, I was very proud of her. Stopped for home made banana bread and coconut flake chips.....mmmmm mmmm. Also took time to browse a local gift shop. Stopped at various look out sites to take some great shots, then James and Melody escorted us all the way back to our condo on the West side of the Island. We said our good byes, hugged and made promises to see each other again and keep in contact.
I recommend anyone traveling to Maui to look James and Melody up, you won't be disappointed. Thank you again Bubba, mahalo.

It was great meeting Kevin and Deb. I love company...you know how it is you get up put your pants on , go to work, come home to tired to do anything but eat and go to bed. At least for us working stiffs anyway. You really don't get to enjoy where you live other than on weekends maybe. When we have company we get to play tourist for a few days. Anyway I'll email all my photo's to Kevin and let him share what he wants. I did want to share just one of Kevin and Deb with Debs new toy

New toy? I'm afraid to ask what that is. I see a wall full of, what looks like, wine or alcohol. Do these things go together some how?

Those are some real nice photos, it certainlt looks like a great place to ride. I just finished blowing out the driveway from a snowstorm we got last night. I cleaned a good foot of snow and its still coming down. You definately picked a good time to be away on vacation.

Looks like everyone had a great time. Green and warm by the looks of it.

Kept looking at the picture with the "You are here". Didn't work. I am still where it is cold and snowy.

Kevin,
Which company did you rent with. My wife and I were in Maui last winter and did not rent a motorcycle but we are returning in March and plan to this time. Last year when I was there I did stop in at the Harley dealer in Kahului and I know they rent bikes. I have been on the roads shown in your pictures but I imagine they look quite different on two wheels.
Aloha,
Fred

Ok Rickyboy...it's just a rolling pin for baking but I thought the look of it might spark a little interest ;) ;).

Magoo, look me up when you get here. Kevin rented from Eagle Riders in Lahaina.
