rode with my father after 10 years
« on: June 11, 2016, 03:43:37 AM »
Hello, my father came to visit from that devastated country named Venezuela, and I put him on my K75s and we went for a 100 mile ride, he was on my K75 and I was on my GS, last time we rode was about 10 years ago, I had a Ducati ST2 that he rode back then and I rode Moto Guzzi 1100 Sport that I used to own,,,, we had a blast, he had a blast and did something different for a change , I was and I am very greatfull for these moments, here are are a couple of pictures from the ride....

regards

I understand the life but given situation of Venezuela it is time to leave unless one is part of the group causing the issues.  It is truly sad to see a great nation suffer from poor leadership.  Now we're can I run to from USA situation.

crazy thing is that he had to hired an Armored bulletproof vehicle and two armed bodyguards just to travel from Caracas (his house) to the airport and the same to pick him up when he returned,,,, It is so crazy that people can and want to live like that .....
