Here is Ms. Clone & David's Goldwing in the parking lot of David's apartment.
We left the apartment, went to the bank and then on to the Pioneer Restaurant on Maplewood for lunch. Here is Alan, head guy what be in charge at Pioneer..The waitresses drive him nuts..
While at the restaurant, David's brother called him & he had driven down from Waurika Okla, to Eddie Hills Fun Cycles on Scott St. in downtown Wichita Falls Tx and wanted us to meet him there. So, we drove to meet him. Here are Ms Clone, David's Goldwing, his brother Jim's Nomad, a scooter and Eddie Hills Aerial Atom parked out front.
Here is David, looking for a screw that was dropped near his brother's Nomad after taking the side cover off. Never did find it..
Here is Jim & David. Jim was trying to get some paint schemes for his bike matched up.
David wandered over to the 09 Goldwing's on the showroom floor, so.....Here's David
David wandering about inside Eddie Hills Fun Cycles.

David, Eddie Hill, & me. This is the 2nd photo op I have had with Eddie this week. If we don't quit meeting this way, people are gonna talk...I have known Eddie since I came back from Southeast Asia in 1975 and he is a GREAT guy with a tremendous personality. He is one of those people that when you meet them, you instantly like them. Here is a link to the business: http://www.eddiehillsfuncycles.com/
The "Crew" at Eddie Hills: Lindsay (from the store on Southwest Parkway & Mark's sister), Mark, Roger, Russ & Tosca (Roger's wife). Part of the one big happy team that works at Eddie Hills.
Here's a pic of Eddie Hill's personal bike.

Some bigger bikes on the showroom floor
This is Richard. He assembles the new bikes when the come into Eddie Hills. He is the one who put Ms Clone together..
Here is Mark, all smiles, as he talks with a customer. The guy leaning on the counter in the white T-shirt also works at Eddie Hills. I will get his name & edit this post.
This is the left rear of Eddie's Ariel Atom. What is an Ariel Atom, you ask ?...
The rear & engine of the Atom. Note the little slicks...Pretty kewl to say the least.
A side view of Eddie Hill's Ariel Atom
A front view of Eddie's Ariel Atom. It looks like one of those Lotus racing cars from the front. Eddie says they are a blast on the track.
The Ariel Atom's interior. Yes, it does have a steering wheel but it is detachable & Eddie had it inside the shop.
Last shot of the day is of the LAZY DOG SALOON, just down the street from Eddie Hills Funcycles. The Lazy Dog Saloon is popular with the Biker crowd here in Wichita Falls, Texas.
