Who here rides a Harley

Which also explains why Jessie Abbate shoots so much better than I do.  The reason she looks so much better doing it is self-explanatory, however. 

Don't say that Tom.  You're a handsome fella!

As a woman, well.......lets say coyote ugly would be complimentary!

No argument from me Mike!  Still fun to see what you're capable of...

Heck, a few years ago, I did about 14 hours one day on my Triumph and it nearly cripple me!  

You do it for a job, you get tough. I used to ride 12 hour days 5 days a week if I could, because I got payed by the run. Of course, I was 19 and stupid so....... .

Wasn't that on a moped?

Real men ride Vespa's....

It was a Tomos (the yugo of mopeds )! Deal was though, DC didn't require a licenceplate if it had pedals, and you could lock it to a sign like a bike, rather than having to find parking. That saved time, which saved money. Whiteline to your stop, pull it up on the sidewalk, lock it, deliver, and out the door. Thats $8. Repeat 50 times a day and it pays very, very well.

As far as riding a scooter more than about 45 minutes.  YOU CAN KEEP IT!  The seats on those things have 12" of cushion, but when you sit on it, it takes the form of a door wedge pointed toward the sky!    

That aside, ugh hum...     I'd guess 1 in 4 people around here have one.  100% road legal, no insurance to pay, no tags to buy (my 18 year old car tags cost $110 a year here!), 50 mpg, out accellerate most cars up to 65 mph, and in the two years we've had ours, I've spent less than $50 on it (oil, belt, bulbs). Hate to admit it, but it's twice as fun as the GSX-R1000 I had before.

Our second scoot shipped outta Texas yesterday (hoping for a better seat!). 

Gas prices be damned!  $2.80 per fill up!

That's about what it costs to start my F-150.

ha! In one of my training classes, the instructor was ragging on my (and my buddies) 1911's during the class. He's a major Glock guy (but coming around to the M&P ). But as we tried to defend our choices, he says, you guys with the 1911's, I bet you drive f'in Harley's as well. Thankfully, I could say *No* that I do not ride on of those rough, cob, toothless, doo-rag wearing, bangin' POS'.....

So it begs the question what do moped owners carry?

Pink Glocks?

Yep! And we can carry them concealed or open carry. We can also shoot someone with no duty to retreat. Try that in Tas, mate!
