Off Topic: Ride to Harley Davidson's museum

Ok, this is really off topic.

Yesterday my lady and I rode up to the Harley Davidson Museum for a VIP tour with the oldest Harley dealer and the local HOG riding group (yes I've got one). Really lousy weather but a great trip none the less and got to view lots of places in the museum you can't normally go. The interesting part was afterwards, we were sitting in the courtyard having a great cup of coffee and warming in the occasional sun and in rides a pair of antique Harleys (it's their 110th anniversary). Got a chance to talk the riders that rode in from Sturgis, SD on them, 866 miles if you take the freeway, they took all back roads, the old bikes top out at 45 mph.

Only this evening did I find out who I was talking to, the guitarist of the Doobie Brothers and his wife, and I managed to get into a news picture, it's me behind the bike wearing the orange t-shirt.
