  5. Has to be Hickies......... If you like them greasy.... try one "dipped" http://www.insiderpages.com/b/3719508141
  6. Can you imagine the struggle this family will have from this point forward? Dealing with what has happened, the children, no matter how great, a constant reminder to the family and any future romantic interests of the victim. Dealing with children that age who have never been educated and have lived with a wack job like that..... This families stress is about to go thru the roof. They will never recover completely from this. I feel for them all.........
  7. Ah, Just wondering if you passed my way, I saw a lot of riders in groups that day.

  11. Nice, Quick turn around! Very Good!
  12. Lots of companies get deals from places like that. They may pay3.5k or 4K per gift card. the retail place will still turn a small profit on just that... but when they have hundreds of employees coming in to redeem their gift card, odds are that some will spend over the card amount and some will be return customers once you get them in the store the first time. So DC wins, the company wins cause they look like they gave you more than they did and you win because you get more than they actually gave you. My company does the same stuff. But unfortunately they never contract with a bike shop. Its usually jewelers also..... must be a big mark up in that stuff....
  13. And each time you double the amount we print..... its worth half what it used to be........ Its a world market..... everything we buy comes from overseas...... each time our dollar gets de-valued.... products cost us more......

  17. Glad to see people out exercising their rights........ Wonder what happens when the laws start changing to demonize gun owners? Like fingerprinting, license for ownership, taxing and so on..... you know its coming......

  19. I dont use them all the time but sometimes like at a restaurant or when running errands to public buildings and such, I just lock them up. If its cool out, I dont mind wearing the jacket inside for a few minutes but when its hot and I just rode thru town, sitting at stop lights...... I just want the thing off. I figure most people who steal something like that would just do it cause they could..... this just makes it so those people need a tool in their pocket to do so.... lol. So, Just for my peace of mind.... so I dont feel like I have to keep my eye on it while trying eat or use the restroom in a restaurant...... I have these under the seat for when I need them......
  20. I'll show you my solution: Go to Lowes and pick up a few things.. cable cable ferrules some solid rings plastic coat Cut your cable to desired length slip ferrule over one end about 3 inches down then fold the short end back and insert into the same ferrule. Check it and make sure it slides thru your D rings on your helmet and then crimp it in place use a vice. Install a ferrule on the other end, fold the cable thru the solid ring and back into the ferrule, pull it tight and crimp in the vice. I made 2 sizes. The short one is for just a helmet. The long one I use to secure the helmet and run thru the sleeve of my jacket and onto the lock. The Idea is the looped end runs thru the D rings but the solid ring end wont fit so its secure. Hook the looped end over the lock, install your seat. When you get them done, Dip them or paint them with the Plastic dip so they cant scratch your paint or helmet. I used 2 to 3 coats of dip on mine. (prepare a place to hang it for drying) Hope that helps!
