I'm sort of jealous when the rest of my family goes on poker runs and I'm not riding with them and I hate to always have to find someone to ride behind.

Anyway, you get out there and think of me just once when you feel the wind blowing through your hair and that'll be great.
What ! We only get one miracle ? Darn I better be REAL carefull out there ! I'll be thinkin of ya on my next run for sure !

Default Motorcycles are fun..

I've enjoyed a many a mile on one. Probably owned 20 in my life, but I'm scared of cell phones and text messages(from folks on 4 wheels). I've never heard of anybody getting out of a vehicle after an accident and saying "oh, I'm sorry, I was on my cell phone". Be careful..

Thanks Buster,Yeah I think I'm going to get a on/off road bike to get me out in the woods and to work.The Toronado is shot,needs a motor.I hate to send it to the crushers cuz it's in great shape otherwise.So I may trade it to a buddy for a van that he has,but then he's going to ether send it to the crusher or put it in the demolition derby.My last car won first place in the demolition derby,so at least it could go out with a bang !

One nice thing about bikes, is that they get about 50 miles to the gallon

Hey RIP, your buddy wants to know where you stashed the bike. Notice that I didn't say his bike but instead, the bike; possession is 9/10th of the law.

Cheers Mate,
