I will say we strictly adhered to speed limits while inside city limits....cops everywhere. As Jack and I were coming into Wichita Falls on the return cops were pulling over a couple of....I will use Jack's word, Poindexters...on Harleys that couldn't quite figure out how to get off the highway without damn near getting us all killed. 18 wheeler almost took Jack out.

I'd like to do a 500 mile run. Maybe next Saturday if I can plan it out and get paroled form the family for a day

Yes. In the city, he was a good boy, but.........! It was actually pretty close to the speed limit most of the time, but the speed limits were 75 MPH!

I want to get something that will help get the attention of drivers behind me. I'm thinking about Custom Dynamics LED filler lights. They cost $250.
