Anyway just breaking it in now. You planning on doing Myrtle Beach end of November? I'll probably be there but taking the car. Too risky on doing that ride from Connecticut that late in November. I hit that ice storm in March coming back from the Williamsburg national. Don't want to do that again.
That's a nice Victory, took a test ride on one two years ago at bike week down in OC . The Street Glide is nice but you got more bike with the Victory, that's a pretty good deal you got too.. Yeah i'll be down there, doing the same thing. The screws in my back can't do cold anymore. We had that rain all the way back from Williamsburg to Delaware and it kicked my butt, never again.

GrumpyBear nailed it. None of us gets out alive so I'm going to do whatever the hell I want as long as I want to.

I don't exercise and eat healthy because I think it'll make me live an extra seven years in Depends. I exercise and eat health because it makes me feel better and allows me to enjoy all the stupid **** I do.

If anyone is interested, I've written about this in the past.

Read the article. Seems to me that the author has "issues".

HaHa. Who gets to decide? I am going to have to disqualify Jack's choices. They are riding down the middle of the lane. Every "real biker" knows that's stupid.

Jack is a 'jack-hole'. Anybody who judges a bike owner because he 'only' does 100 miles in a day rather than a few 500 mile days in a row is not someone I could even be around. He also disses people based on what cars they drive. Dude is not a journalist or even a cool rider.

I never really cared much about what others think of me and I never really worried much about what others are doing or how they do it. If I am happy with myself that is a good thing. If someone else is doing what makes them happy, that is a good thing as well. As long as neither of us hurts anyone I don't see a problem.
