When I was in my 20s I was going to move to California My grandfather talked me out of it. One of his arguments was. If you were able to pick up the USA by its two handles (Florida and Maine) and shook it that’s where all the loose nuts and fruit would fall.
I stopped at a store on my way home from work got lucky and found a front row spot went in for about 15 minutes. When I came back out some guy had his 4 year old sitting on my bike this had me a little upset but what really got me was the kid had a chocolate ice cream cone and was dripping it all over my bike when I walked up to them the guy saw my helmet and says Is this yours its a nice looking bike. In my calmest vice I could muster I told him it was but that I was fighting the urge to hit him in the face with my helmet right now and not in the mood to talk. At that point he grabbed his kid and ran off. What was this guy thinking how would he feel in someone let their kids play in his car. RANT OVER
The wife and I went on a ride with 15 other couples up and around the north shore of Lake Erie to Niagara Falls then up thru Toronto to Quebec City then over to Moncton New Brunswick Back down to Bangor Maine then thru New York City to Washington DC back up to Gettysburg Pa. and then back home we did the ride in a little under 2 weeks lucked out and had good weather the whole way had a great time.
Sorry it will have to be another time Iam selling my boat and the guy was going to meet me for a test run at 9:30 but cant make it until noon now Have a good ride Rick
Rout 82 E. Aurora Rd. and Golden Link Boulevard when turning left in to Lowes or Golden Corral be careful in the center of the 2 left turning lanes there are several pot holes running parallel to the road that are 4 inches wide and 4 inches deep and about 6 feet long they will pucker your azz if you put a front wheel in to one of them
You may want to take a few rides with the cruisers a nice slow long ride is more of a stress releaser and will help your skill level than the quickies you will get with the sportriders.
Have you ever thought that the government might really want its citizens to own guns? The US military stationed in the states is relatively small to really protect the country you would need a well armed civilian force. Think about this. What would happen if another country tried to invade ours there would be a rifle barrel sticking out almost every window? Now our government could not come right out and tell everyone to go out and buy a fire arm the liberals would start to cry and file all kinds of lawsuits. So they need a curtain percentage of the citizens to own guns what better way to get everyone to run out and buy a gun than to come out and say you want to band them. Sales of guns and ammunition go way up once the percentage of gun owners hit the percentage they want the gun band talks just fade away with not much if nothing ever happening. Over the years I have noticed trends like this happening when firearm and ammunition sales start to really drop off or when the government is starting to reduce the number of US military forces Like what’s going on right now.. I think this also sends a message out to other countries. Yes we are cutting back our military but don’t mess with us because every one of our citizens owns 10 guns. Yes I’m bored and on my 6th shot of Jager
Rumor has it that since the retirement of Willy G from Harley Davison designs. Some of the younger design engineers have come up with a new long stroke water cooled V-4 engine that is in the neighborhood of 250 to 350hp Depending on performance options that supposedly has a huge amount of torque. It is to be put into a newly designed V Rod Road racer. If it gets approved it won’t take long for this engine to start showing up in their other bikes. I wonder what the hardcore Harley purest will think of this move if it comes to pass. I have been hearing this BS for a while now. Sounds like they are looking at getting in to the sport bike market. I think it may be a bike that is way over priced for the age group it will be targeting.
