bcd:
I did see a bald eagle but did not photograph it.
I've seen them twice this year on my commute, it's cool that they're deep into Columbus now.

Thank Larry. Pleasure to meet you as well and I plan on enjoying the Raffle Bike for many years to come.

Had the most awesome time attending my first STAR. It was like "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" in a way, with twist and turns at every window of opportunity. But you know what, it was just a blast like none other I've ever experienced. And for me, how could it get any better. The solo ride from MI to OH and then group ride to VT was stupendous. The roads in VT were likewise pretty darn good, and the Honda demo team allowed me to try out three bikes - the Africa Twin, the 2016 Interceptor (had to fold up like a pretzel to sit on it) and the F6B. I'd never ridden anything so big, and the girl told me "Don't worry. After you get to about 5 mph, you won't even feel the weight.", and she was right. The smallest tap on the bars and it just turned in - I was impressed.
Thanks to every single volunteer who did anything to make this STAR a great success. And thanks also to all who bought raffle tickets to support the club. I do almost every year, and after my win this year, I vouch that I will buy every year from now on, even if the bike doesn't interest me.
Photos (in order): Loaded up to leave Stratton, the farewell sign in lobby from the EC, night 1 ride home in NY, side of the road on PA 666 (freshly chip and sealed), VFR loaded and ready to return to OH. (Thanks again Steve.)

Richard can say for sure, but it looks like a Kendon trailer that folds and can stand up almost flush against a wall.
