What if it Snows?

Tha ks for the well thoughts brothers @Troy_ I needed a lil break from trucks after my brother in brown getting killed in Miami and then my coworker having the fatality accident. I strapped a BMX bike to the back of the road king and rode to Ray's mtb in Cleveland Ohio for some total two wheeled therapy. I rode in 20° weather, rain, slush and snow....left the phone at home. Drove my family nuts but I needed some solid me time and got it. Dislocated my shoulder on a failed backflip in the park lol. Put 3000miles on the road king in terrible conditions which is kind of awesome because it's a fun story to tell now. Going back to work on Sunday and actually feeling pretty good about it...I miss it.

 

I did feel the need to kiss a palm tree when I got back. It's 80° out and I pushed the bike outside to do everything I found I didn't like with it over the last 3000 miles like when you hit the horn the fuse for the dash, brake light, and turn signals blows. Small leak in the air shocks crossover line........and another flat rear tire that came off the rim a half a mile away from home. I will say other than the minor issues the thing rode like a beast. I went straight thru on the way up and took two days to get back because I always wanted to see Avery island LA because I love Tabasco sauce and it was definitely worth the stop. I got to hang out with some great pro racers in Ohio that I haven't gotten time to spend time with in a few years. Enough about me and my stupid bull ####. How y'all been doing? I would love to say I'm gonna go back and read all seven million pages I'm behind but I probably won't. I hope y'all been staying safe and making tons of money.

 

The aftermath of 3000 miles on a piece of junk lol

 

I'll get caught up honestly but it's gonna take a minute.

 

good to hear, glad you got a change of scenery and a good thrash session to work out the kinks. happy to see you back brother!

even a crappy ride on the bike is better than a good day at work...I say the same about fishin lol.

 

Id be a little grumpy after 3000 miles with no seat too... Lol

 

I hit like 2" of snow in WV. Riding 14mph dragging my feet the while way and freezing but the looks I got from people are worth it lol. Harley with Florida tags riding in the snow.....I'm the real Florida man lol. I can say that years of running hare scrambles really helped out there. Only dropped it once......it didn't make it past the floor board and crash bar. This was all with a redline mx24 bungee corded to the back lol.

 

Ever paid $90 for a book that tells you the book you already have gas all the info you need?
