OK, same picture:

Who's ugly mug is that in the upper left corner (forum handle, please)? This might be a tough one, but anyone who's been on either of the Spring Rides or the 2008 Rochester ride should know.

Looks like a morph of Gene with Stitch. I've never seen Gene smile that warmly.

That would be Dobie.
Charlie is his 1st name I believe.

Correct on both counts.
That's my friend Charlie, aka Dobie in Maplewood. He hasn't spent much time on the forum, so I thought the handle might be hard to get.

While we are waiting on Greg, I have a question, can someone identify the 2 folks in this picture, from the 08 Amish.

I can't put a name with them & it is bugging me!

GW, I have to agree with Wayne. I even tried pulling a copy off & blowing it up, just not enough detail. Problem for me is that I probably coundn't identify them anyway! Gene

I think that's Iron's bike, before he repainted. I can't tell you which one is him, though.

Yes, you are right. It's not the best picture...
In the photo above Iron (Tim) is pictured on the left with the Al's Bar shirt on.
The other guy (on the right) is also hard to identify from that photo, so here is a better picture of him - the guy on the right in the photo below

Oops, I forgot to check & see if I had won. Well, I am going to put up a picture from first International HTTA rally at TWO in Suches, Ga. I would like to identify the fellow sitting on the left on the swing, in a red shirt. Ready! Set! GO!

OK, now don't mess up, you should identify this guy right off the bat!

DaveF, I always forget about you lurking out there in the dark! You are correct, he came down with his Dad and the fellow next to him, along with Don when Don picked up the GL500 Dick had rehabbed for him. It was a great time!
 This is a picture of Don's GL on my patio next to Casper. I still kick myself for selling that bike! Gene
PS: DaveF since you know about all things computer related maybe you can answer a question for me. In the "Post Icon: below the message box, the little guy in the 2nd row down, third from the left, does he still pitch a tantrum when I am not watching? I just wondered......

Probably so. He seems to be always pitching a tantrum every time I post. 
In keeping with the TWO theme, here is another photo taken at a TWO get-together.

Jerry, on the left, has already been identified in this thread. But who is the guy on the right in the black shirt?

Ah yes, the one and only time I got to meet Charles and Dick. Very glad I could always put faces with those two names. Both "TT Hall of Famer's" in my book! I also met Dan T (the T is not for Turbo, but it might well be) that one time.
The various Rallys are great for actually connecting with the various interesting and colorful folks on our BB. Distance hasn't kept some of our regulars away, at the risk of leaving some out, Dave and Gene/Georgia, Dave/WI, friends from various points in Canada, and of course, Don from Austraila. 'Bout time we had a (current) Englishman, Swede, Spainard, Eurolander (?) or Russian as a guest I say! Shep, we could leave the beer out for awhile, if cold beer offends you. Heh, heh.

Ah, Phil, I could never forget you! I consider you a local though. Just because you are temporarily living down south doesn't change that. I heard a rumor you might be moving to Central America, any truth to that? And yes, you are famous, sorry you had to point that out yourself, my bad.

There was a picture of a rotary engine in a custom bike a while back. Pretty extreme it was.

That would be a rear view of Phil aka PWG in Lowgap NC, and "wet" doesn't quite cover it, but will do. That whole trip was on the damp side. Photo of entrance to "TWO" in Suches Georgia, as we were heading out in a torrential downpour.
How about these guys?

May the wind always be at your back and the sun overhead as you make your way down the ever winding, smoothly paved, traffic free road!
