Wait... Easy Rider, Wild hogs and SOA are fiction?!?!

I suppose the next thing you're gonna say is that OCC really does build motorcycles.

Have you ever seen anything come out of Hollywood that didn't have an agenda? Anything that was true? Anything that wasn't a commercial for some product? Wait, I bought it hook line and sinker.

Nope, they sell T-shirts. Thats all the Paul Jr's 'design' company is too.

1969 gas was 14.9 cents a gallon at the station on the corner 3 houses down from where I lived. I could fill the tank on my bike for 30 cents and the tank on Dads caddy for 5 bucks. As for the Hippys, ya gotta admit Free Love was not a bad thing.

Not only might gas be a problem, but you never once see any of them fixing anything on their panheads. Heck, they don't even put oil in them. A long trip like that and no wrenching? I don't think so.

Some people just have to much time on their hands. maybe caused by the cold weather and the lack of ride time.
