    I so hope this is real and not Photoshop.
    This would be awesome.
     
    And another one in small size so your kids can be Mini-Me.
    Imagine a whole family walking around the grocery store wearing these.
  2. Scooters can be Bad Ass too.
    In Germany in the 80s with a bunch of drunk Army guys, we laughed and sneered at a Gang riding Mopeds and Scooters, wearing leathers and chains.
    Almost got our asses kicked when they came back and we found out they were like the local Hells Angels.  😁

    Anyone know any decent roads in the north central counties?  Like delaware, marion, morrow...  Seems like its pretty much all straight line grids, or gravel danger zones....

    West of Marysville, south of the Honda plant lots of nice semi-twisty roads. Not the same as southern Ohio, but its nice.
    Lots of covered bridges around North Lewisburg, Milford Center, etc.
    Northwest of Marysville around West Mansfield, Zanesfield and Bellefontaine, though thats getting more into NorthWestern region.
    257 from Columbus following the Scioto River north toward Prospect is decent.
    315 north of Columbus following Olentangy River to Delaware even better.
    Some neat stuff around Sunbury/Galena area.
    Mohican/Malabar area farther north near Mansfield lots of nice backwoods roads.

    All of these you have to get off the beaten path on the little back roads.
    Not any long twisty routes that are good for 100 uninterrupted miles of in-the-wind Bliss.

    Found this out explorering my area the other day. Thanks for the link @Hellmutt that will give a site to pick random bridges to see and an excuse to explore new areas I have not been too.

    Nice shot. Think you got a GPS SNAFU though. Your coordinates are up near Ashley.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigelow_Bridge says it is 40°06′58″N 83°25′30″W

    If your gas pump blasts commercials in my ear I will never return and may leave mid fillup. It would be a shame if the speaker got doused with fuel.

    Guess I don't get out much. Experienced my first VIDEO gas pump playing non-stop commercials on loop. Kept thinking "WTF is this?" I would hate to live next door and have to listen to that all night.

  6. Replaced front brakes and air filter on the Virago yesterday. A mouse had got inside the housing and chewed up the filter. I left him a mothball inside the housing so he doesn't try to move back in.

    This morning I saw the headlight on in the garage and discovered ignition, fuel pump and headlight were probably on half the night.
    Pulled ALL the fuses, key off, kill switch off, and everything is still hot. Definitely a short somewhere. Had to just disconnect battery for now until more time for diagnosis.

    Probably the same mouse that ate the filter also has a taste for wiring.
