Whoa! Where are you from? Some of my best friends are in Monticello, IL.

Or, have we already had this conversation and I've forgotten? I've been known to do that.

Grew up around that area, we moved every year when I was a kid. Dad was/is nuts...LOL:laugh
was born in Champaign,Ill but we lived in Farmer city at the time.

Had a friend that lived in Monticello haven't seen him in over ten years and went there couple years ago and he had moved and couldn't find him even with the internet?

I took my wife to Allerton park in Monticello cool place if right time of year..maybe anytime

I was wanting to be heading back across the river to Illnois by now but O/L visiting with her sister :blahblah::liz:liz:blahblah:

They mess around to long I'll be going on another ride..nice today and turning winter again tomorrow :mad

Love livin' in the south. I ride pretty much EVERY day. Average of about 350 days a year. Christmas here was beautiful, and I put about 65 miles on my Sportster, and another 80 or so on my Dyna. Had to go test out all my Christmas presents my girls got me for winter time riding. I cleaned up this year!

Ah soothes the soul. Got to 50 today here in Indianapolis, unhooked the battery tender, uncovered the bike, and was GONE. WOW what a way to relax after a busy last couple of days, . Got home, hooked up the battery tender, covered the bike and waiting for the 22 deg temp to hit Monday. Come on SPRING

Would have been able to ride with the temps where they were but way to much crap on the roads.

Yes, I was super tempted too. Was so close to pulling the cover. Just too much salt and sand.
