Erica,
650 - that was a good bike!
Did you have good roads to ride on???

I failed my last endorsement test is Oregon, but the lady asked some questions about my stiffness and ability to navigate the cones. She wanted to know if I would just drive though or pull over and be safe. She gave it to me, but now in Gillette, I am not endorsed again.
I probably see 200 bikes in a five minutes when I am around work. They are on the interstate. I can always tell the Honda, he is by himself.... and I see him but can not hear him!! lol

I had a Ridley Custom all built out to resemble a late '60's Electraglide. Had to have the Ridley because both my knees have been gone due to sports and parachuting injuries for a long, long time. It was a beautiful machine but my back and neck couldn't hack it once things got bad.

I wanted to sell bikes for them in Northern Colorado and Wyoming but Clay Ridley turned down my offer. He never did get the hang of getting dealerships and now Ridley is gone. I sure wish it wasn't. The other "automatic" bikes don't even compare.

When my ship comes in I'll have Boss Hoss build me a trike. No endorsement needed. We'll make the trip together, Lon. Gotta warn you, though; I sometimes wear a kippah under my cowboy hat and a tallit under my leathers. If that's no problem I might have fun in Sturgis.

Why yes I did have good roads! I was a wild child in the 70's in central California.

I don't miss it, those were crazy years.

John,
Warn me? hmmmm, I hope that I have not given an impression of b
thinking I am a man of a ornery predisposition???
I am a Covenant keeper with our Creator, I think we wud have a pretty good time. Pick me up on the way through????
When we look for the best in even bikkers, we usually find some pretty good people..
I am a novice, compared to you. I have put on thousands of miles, but they have been on smaller, and second hand bikes..
Hey, thanks for the chat.

Erica,
I do not miss many things from my rebellion years, either. It is good that we learn from our mistakes. I would never go to Sturgis if I thought for a minute, I would be lured back into that kind of behavior!
It has been good to chat. I don't go on many long trips, I know my neck would be throbbing after 2 hours of riding...

Donna,
I am getting baseball sized tomatoes now. but not like you are getting. I am probably eating 20 cherry tomatoes a day. They are as sweet as candy!!!!!
