All photos are available in Help a brother out...
*EDIT: It's been found, see comments. Thank ya!
I need some help locating a past highlight photo. If any of you happen to have a bookmark or some other means of pointing me to this highlight posted previously...
...and you can point me to it, I'll love you forever. I need the actual page/URL it is on, which indicates the date it was posted so I'll have a starting point for finding the original on our servers here. Super StreetBike wants to use it on their backpage in an upcoming issue.
PS: I won't be mad at ya for posting this up in forums as well, I'm sure this rider is out there lurking somewhere and we're out to make him more famouser!

W00T! Thank you Mr. Hamilton! I owe you a beer. Lori and I spent over 6 hours combined looking for that damn shot and didn't catch it on the 2008 scan. The EXIF data is still embedded in the shot and says it was taken 2008-06-09 so there our starting point to find the original. Thanks again buddy!
^^^oops I take it back, that thread was from June '08
I just looked at all of june though and couldn't find the post. (I don't think I missed it.)
And no problem bud. Sorry I couldn't find the original blog post but I'm glad the photo was useful.
Better than a beer: you can let me hang out and shoot the shit (and some photos) with you if I can make it down this year.
Maybe I'll be able to finally get a bike running :-/

Glad you found it, with an assist from Mr. Hamilton, KB.
@KB: Maybe "Tips For Riders" needs a new section:
HTGSOTT (Half the Gear Some Of The Time) and don't forget Gymnastics in high school if you want to make the cover of a magazine.
Excellent photo. Great Slayerskilz.
Those crazy stunters !
Word veri sucks now !!!!
Burt Munro starting out!
Soon after someone suggested to Mr Munro that maybe he should not lay perpendicular to his motorcycle,
as lying-down *parallel* would achieve FAR superior aerodynamics!
A friend then told him to get an old Indian. A gal pal chimed-in that maybe he should take all his clothes off, as well.
Burt tried all three ideas at once and the rest is History!
Had a thought today,
It was Rollie Free on a Vincent, not Burt Munro on his Indian.
Realized I was WRONG and just wanted to POINT it out, rather than delete it and pretend it never happened!
Keep the Rubba Side Down
@2WO: Thanks for clearing that up. Googled Burt Munro and didn't get the pic I thought I would.
As for the Dragon, I'm hooked. Going down with a sports car club pal at the end of this month. No touristas (unless you count us)! He invited himself along when I was noodling the trip, and it dawned on me that I hadn't taken a "buddy road trip" in years.
Can you FLOG a dragon? We've allowed an entire day.
I'm about ready for an update, even if it's of an empty road.
Hang tight, itsa coming...just got out and shot today for the first time this year!
YeeeHaaa! Let the fun begin.
