So I have not been around lately, more on that later - but yesterday I went to an event in St. Charles where a friend was playing in a band - and he ROCKS too - Some Years Later is the band, but they also had a bunch of Vette's too, so I had to take a look for my favorite - the 1963 Split window Corvette - only made ONE year and then they stopped (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

And I found ONE there too:

And with the owner too:

So anyway, I keep walking and come across this:

Pretty bad ass, its based on the C6 Corvette, but with newer tech inside - starting around 6 figures, and probably better than a vette too!

Anyway, where has Adam been lately?
Well, RIDING A LOT!

Took a trip up to Michigan's UP, about 9 hours there on a Friday in the rain (about a month ago) then Sat. ride off road all day, then Sunday ride home! Yes, it was a TOTAL BLAST TOO!
Loaded up:

I have taken a couple other trips too, to Monroe, Wi to Mineral Point, Wi. - to do the Cheese Country Trail, off road about 50 miles of gravel and rocks, what a blast, I gotta get back up there sometime this season!
I also took a trip to Starved Rock, big ride, lots of bikes, and great weather too!
All the pics can be seen on my Picasaweb album (I am sure there is more, like lots of off road pics!)

Also, been working a ton, taking care of the wifey and kids too, and general life BS as well.

Also, I should mention I am starting my own radio show tonight - Starts @ 7 Central on Party934.com - my name there is AdamRock (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) and of course I will be ROCKIN'!

Hope everyone here is well - I really do miss some of you, and I hope to get out on a ride sometime this year.

The reason why you should always have your modular helmet down and locked - lol (I went over a boulder hill, lost it and fell on my face, nothing like a little blood to get your blood flowing - lol
