Happy Birthday !!!!

My 98,743 mile R65 is 30 years old this month.  Seems like a keeper to me with no signs of leaving the stable on its own despite the presence of multiple BSA's.    [smiley=bmw_smiley.gif]

Mine, too!

That means I qualify for and can ride the 20+ mile Vintage Parade Loop on the '81 this year at the Lake O' the Pines Vintage Rally... finally.
