Wow! Your new blog is so cool… I can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming up next. By the way, there is an awesome Indian Motorcycle exhibit at the Springfield, Mass. History Museum. We just saw it today and thought of you. I’ll be posting about it soon. Cheers! Gunnar

Hey Gunnar
Fancy seeing you here. I figured since I have so many photos of the stuff I see when I’m out and about that they need their own blog.
I took a look at your Indian post. That collection looks terrific. Its nice to see that the exhibit can be enjoyed by someone who isn’t necessarily in to bikes. They really were beautiful machines. I’ll be tweeting that post of yours. It needs to be seen by motorcycle people! I will make it a point to stop in and see it for myself if i’m in the neighborhood. I had no idea it was there. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks for popping in!
