I want to see you put chains on that scooter when you go through the snow.  Heck, that would be worth the airfare! :-*

My father used to say how he delivered newspapers in Maine back in the early 30's on an Indian motorcycle and had to run chains in the winter.


Check out this guy................ he makes his own.

Deep,

Hope things are going well and you are having a fun trip!  Last year at the "suggestion" of the bride I stepped up to a Wing.  Amazing how easy it was to get rid of all the noise from the back seat  ;)

Last summer on a trip to southern Kansas (550 miles each way) she managed to doze off more than once.  Last weekend was her first trip this spring.  After 40 miles I asked if she was ready to head back, being the caring husband who just remembered she was back there.  She made it clear that on this bike she could ride all day!  Even when we rode into a thunderstorm she didn't care.

Now all I have to do is get that cruiser back for when I ride alone - Think of the guy with a couple of Caddies and a Vette in the gerge.   ;D

P.S.
If you get a bike with intercom make sure that you control the on and off switch!
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

I've been looking at goldwings online. I think the wife would lik,e that too. we may be going on with my mothers car from here, she's trying hard to convince Mili that it will be way too cold, wet and uncomfortable in the Northwest. (nah, never) anyway, I'll let you guys know how that goes.

You could just unplug the intercom wire!  ;)

I just loves me a Vette in the gerge! Taking spelling lessons from FQ are we? ? ? ?   ;D

Deep - glad to finally hear from you. I thought you might be in the slammer somewhere, there was such a resounding silence. But since no flares for bail money went up, I was wondering! Continue to have fun.
