    You know what's just a fun thing to do? Call SEM and tell them you need 5 new tires. That usually gets a very special response. Add to it the fact that one of the tires is just off the rim, and it's the tire that was replaced just a couple days ago and things get even better. But what's the best part?

    No Defect

    Uhuh. Suuuuuure Mr Charles Whose last name has been said to my dbl.

    So, assuming I get these tires replaced.. Trying to decide how to get from here to the interstate. In Lexington NC. Need to get up to Carlisle. Qualcomm says 220 to Roanoke. It's 35 miles out of route to take 74 to 81. Or I could do 29 to 64 to 81.... Not sure. Never been on 220 and with this delay, making appt is going to be tough

    Alright, why not find out what it's like. Thanks!

    I had the greatest time getting to this pickup. Pretty sure this load is cursed. First time I've had this happen:

    1- address in workflow is wrong
    2- directions in navigo don't go to the address in workflow. They go 10 miles further to some random place.
    3- the actual place isn't where the address is and it also isn't where navigo is directing to. In a completely different spot.

    And calling SEM when you're in a place like that? Oh it's not awesome. What's the location ID? It's this number, but I'm not there. I'm at this address. Why? And then they don't understand the concept of it.

    74 to 81 is what I would run. 35 miles oor is not bad considering how bad 220 sucks. If you stop in Winchester try out the drop lot. Will get you in the Halloween spirit. Creepy.

    So, here's some proof. Each picture is of a different tire.

    U can always tell when a biker is happy-he's not driving a cage or an 18er. Brings up a memory, threw on my skid lid and took off on a cruise, little did I know, the spider crawling down the inside of my shield didn't like riding
