Carlos & Mikey


Speaking of Carlos... : ) That ain't your average quart of shine but there's not many things average in Franklin. ; )

That's no "Average" Breedlove either . . . his story REALLY needs to be told.

Ya know . . . it's real easy, in today's world, to only hear the bad . . . it consumes the majority of our audio, visual and sensory spectrum . . heavy duty incoming.

It tends to obscure tales of actual legends like Big Jim and Mike Breedlove.

Breedlove is a special person, nothing short of amazing.

I love looking at those pictures.

Duly noted. Most folks that have been to the ride know but for the sake of those who don't I'll tell the story in the following posts.

Is Mike Breedlove related to the Breedlove triplets of Franklin? They would be around 28/29 years old now.

I couldn't have hand picked a better group of people to spend this past weekend with. It was one I won't soon forget. Yep, that Mikey is something special. Liked him the first time I met him at Jerry's place. Man, he has one huge heart. Take care everyone, and I hope I can make it again next year!

It went this way, and I went that way....



Excellent music....



Excellent stories....



Excellent views...
and, well we will let Fireman Jim explain what happened between these two photo's!!!!





Here is Char surrounded by good people again!



and making friends along the way,



AND Mr. Breedlove, hearing of your actions the day of Big Jim's passing, hearing them from JB2, hearing the conviction and love that you showed that day, you sir embody what being a descent human being is about. I am glad to say that I have met you and the rest of the 'Big Jim's' crew and family.

Jim, so glad you made it! Everything Ferris told me about you was true. ; ) (It was all good, BTW)

I missed the Fireman Jim photo-op... not sure what he done but I'll bet he almost got in trouble. : ) Still waiting for him to chime in...

I'm going to stick my photos over here instead of the other thread... That's for Jim's stories.



The Uly decided it wanted to rest a bit on the way to Franklin... This was among the stickiest, nastiest stuff I've ridden in on the Uly. CT2s are not offroad tires!!!


Lou and BHuff providing Friday Night entertainment







More to come...

Brankin, Mikey loved the magnet.

Great photos Alex! Butcher's bike is really cool. The one of him and Beth going across the bridge turned out nice too. Looks like the Victory was shooting off some gamma rays. Must have been activating its force shield? ; )

Hey Jim (R) I would really like a big photo of me with the 'rent-a-puppy'. It was great meeting you and the gang! Let's keep in touch for sure!
