Went outside to check on something and it really felt nice, temp dropped quite a bit and the sun was behind the trees. Thought it won't be this good in the morning, so fired the truck up and put a can of fluid in the ac, brought the vent temp down about 39 degrees, that'll do it.

The used dealer that seems to have the best deals on pickups raised prices for the years I've been looking at around $5000 more than the same trucks were last week. I should have just spent a little more three years ago instead of thinking if I don't find one I like they get cheaper every year. Nope, that didn't happen.

The words cycle gear should have been a clue, Bob. I went in one exactly once.

I couldn't wear a 44 either, for the same reason.

Still have a motorcycle jacket that must be near 40 years old, doubt I'll ever be able to wear it again. Might fit one of the grandsons in a few years. Hmm, ex had a matching one, wonder if it's still here, would be a nice gift for my granddaughter in a few years. Stuff like that lasts for decades if you take care of it.

A Cycle Gear finally opened here in Denver a year or so ago. In the old Freedom Harley building judging by the address. I haven't been there. There is a locally owned place close to me that is similar. Half the store is off road gear and half street gear. Lots of name brands, decent prices. Get my tires there.

Did you give them the page 23 scowl Bawb?

Looking at them with disdain and feeling sorry for them being too stupid to ride a Harley?

While doing the Harley strut....

It’s a pretty good game so far. Hard hitting and fast.

Pretty damn close Jack. Had the Page 23 plaid shirt, knit cap, and shades. Was only missing the pigtails. But they were too busy tending to each other's satchels to notice how menacing I looked.
