You're not kidding. I came off of 83 and turned onto Chester to get to work today after lunch, and was shocked at the sheer amount.

There's a place right by where I work called Avon boot shop. They sell all sorts of leather jackets, boots, vests, etc. No pants, only chaps. I just can't bring myself to wear chaps, but it's starting to look like I may have to consider it. They don't sell pants, leather or textile, and the harley shop across the road, well, you'll never catch me paying $450 for a pair of pants, which is what they want to charge for a pair. Finding a shop with proper gear for a cruiser is akin to finding a shop with spare parts for a Daewoo.

Well, for me, it's because I can pick up on the tour at the end of my driveway. It started out just as a thought of something to do in a day, not turn it into a long weekend or anything. I agree, the thought of Cleveland, and/or Buffalo aren't very appealing, but it'd be a decent distance to go in a day, and would be better than my normal riding around northern Ohio, but not as good as the Tennessee riding I got used to. I see it as a trade off.

My wife and I were talking about this earlier today. How many people do you suppose would have kept right on walking when they heard banging and screaming for help? I'd venture a bet that it would be quite a few who just wouldn't have wanted to get involved with anything of the sort, especially not knowing what they'd stumbled upon. Convicted or not, I believe he's proven that he's willing to do the right thing.

I'll have to check the place out with their weird self measuring sizer stuff. My sidis are definitely not Canyons. lol.

How do some of you guys get time to take these multi-week trips? I would love it, but I just get a week of vacation a year... I never thought about the exchange rate and all, but I typically use my debit card for everything, anyway.

So... Wifey has given her blessing on the addition of one more bike. So I need to find one on a shoestring budget of $3000. The alternative is to sell my sportster and take the money and add it to the $3000 allotted, but I think my sporty has no value. I ride it a lot, so it's not one of those 07s with 900 miles on it, lol. I want a fun one for the twisty roads, so some sort of sport touring one. Surely, somewhere someone knows of a deal?

It would appear. If you ever see a guy riding an orange harley with a helmet, that'd be me. I haven't driven my car in a couple of weeks. -
Well, I think it would be boring on a sportbike. It looks like more of a scenic cruiser type of ride.

What about me? I came from down south originally... Then moved to Tennessee, and then came back to Ohio, but cleveland. Lol -
Awesome bosses are hard to come by.

I thought I was the only sheffield lake guy here. -
That's the turnpike authority I would have expected...
-
That could work...
-
Looks interesting... Are you going up for this?
-
What's the last week of July?
-
Not to be confused with circle jerk. Anyone ever done this? I'm thinking about going next week and taking the route. 650-odd miles, seems to be some decent roads, and my passport is valid... Secondly, anyone want to ride with me?
-
Any resolution in it yet? I've not ridden on the turnpike recently, but living in Lorain county, it's always a possibility.

I'm a clevelander, too. Welcome. -
I'll also say, and my odometer will prove, a Harley is a comfortable ride, even a sportster

That was my compromise I made with my wife. Sold the fast bike a few years ago, stayed low for a year, then bought a cruiser. I'm happy to be riding, and I'm a lot more alert than I was before two kids.

I just bought a house. I have an entire house load of boxes. You gonna be in cleveland anytime soon?

I miss having a fast bike. A lot.
