Mornin, Rich. I think I was reading one of that guy's threads. Got 4,200 miles out of the back tire and 72,614 out of the front.

We rode from Vallejo to Sacramento Raceway with a few clubs and guys from Unknown Industries. about 350 bikes in total. Probably 4 pairs of boots between us all. Took us 2 hours to drive a 50 miles trip because it was nothing but wheelies and tricks on the freeway. One broken chain caused a 20 minute freeway repair.


It was the annual FXR's of Calif. show with stunt riders and they even had a nitro exhibition. Some of the sweetest FXR's on the planet were there.
Watched an 8 year old girl wheelie her Honda 125 the entire 1/4 mile both ways, standing on the seat. She got the biggest applause from the grandstands.
Was a great day

Well, FB won't let me upload a video here.

If I decide to take a nap during the eclipse, do I still need the glasses?
