This really should be appropriately titled "Friends" but this guy is a handful in
himself.

We met some riding friends along the way. Standing at one of the many Cloudcroft
cliff edges is (from right to left) Tom, Trudi, and Jack. Trudi and Jack are married and
ride a Honda Shadow.
Jack and Trudi are married and Jack was an Air Force pilot. Tom served, too. He's a Vietnam
vet. He said he doesn't like his picture taken because it "takes some of his spirit out" of him.
Oh, Tom... will you ever win?

Tom, 62, (unofficially) gets the "Acts like a child" award for this rally. Tom wears a leather
outfit consisting of these earmuff things (on the right), cool black goggles, and on his
chaps, while not very visible, you'll notice on his left pantleg he stitched in the phrase
"David Harleyson." Guess he has something against Harley riders...
Tom told us a lot
of cool stories about himself in college and at Sturgis. As this is a family, TV-G web page,
I'll not tell the tales... unless you e-mail
me and ask about:
- Fried Eggs
- The Washing Machine
- The guy at Sturgis who wore chaps without pants or underwear
I conclude Tom looks/sounds like Randy Quaid from National Lampoon's Christmas
