Was this the first sighting of two forum members who have never met, on the same road, different directions? I believe it is!
    Last September, another board member saw me on I-40 just west of Memphis as I was traveling from the annual Rally in Franklin, NC to my home in Reno. It's documented in the F6B sightings thread.

    I think you missed my point, we were both on our bikes and we saw each other. Was he on his bike, and did you see him? Not that any of this matters, it was simply a topic headline to my post.

    We were on I40 last Saturday between I81 & I75.
    But..... the "B's" were on the trailer not pulling one.

    That's pretty darn cool.

    I was told an easy way to distinguish yourself is to wave with one finger; now, rather than describing the bike, observers can simple ask if you were the one finger waver

    Silly, but correct, in a remote way: intra cockpit communication for planes flying formation, the number "6" is the index finger pointed horizontally. (1 thru 5 are vertical, 6-10 are horizontal to the path of travel)
    So, index finger at the horizontal it is!

    Yup. Now, if I can just find one in the wild.....
    Was out for over 125 miles this morning. No bikes at all on the way to breakfast. Many HDs during the return. One Wing. No 6s.
