Okay, I am here to bare my soul. Yesterday while out for a nice long ride I was making my way home when I had to stop for a traffic light. Since the road after was about 1 mile of straight away, I decided to open my Fat Boy up one last time before turning into my neighborhood. I got off to a great start, when I realized that I was not alone. A Mercedes Benz had pulled up along side and started to challenge me. Like a fool, I decided to accept the challenge and increased my speed. This guy kept up with me, so I pulled ahead some more. Before long I was well over 100 MPH in 6th gear with traffic stopped up ahead. At the last minute, I pulled up and let him move ahead to his "victory". I bought my Harley because I just wanted to cruise and not race, but my ego got the best of me. I realize I am damn lucky I did not lose control and end up as a pavement stain. I could not tell me wife lest she start getting concerned when I ride. Okay, that's my story, let me have it.

LOL reminds me of when i used to date this chick that had 3 Corvette's.
She let me drive them all the time but only when she was in the car with me.
Anyway we went out one night and she didnt want to drive in my jeep so she asked if i would drive and take her 2006 vette out.
Well of course i did
so we're driving down I-95 doing about 65 and a Mustang passes us. i didnt think anything about it till she popped me in the back of the head and i looked at her liek wtf. she said dont you ever let a mustang pass us in my car!
LOL i just laughed and she said im serious catch that mthrfker and pass them.
so i gunned it and got up to about 110 just to catch them and as we passed she waived at them. i tell ya she layed me good that night. from that ngiht on i was looking for anyone to try and pass us.

Happens. I have a Vmax for that stuff so don't romp the HD. I did rip a nice patch leaving the Iron Horse last weekend and felt kind of stupid after - I know better than to attract attention when leaving the pub.
