    Don't think you want me sweating gravy all over your trailer.

    I haven't hook this in awhile. 8-9 months. That remote controll roll tarp on a welfare wagon can make you get thick.

    But that's a 50 ton flat. Only needs 2 axles. :D

    Butter we made at home kinda ruined me on store bought butter, just absolutely no comparison. As a kid I loved butter on flapjacks, I can take it or leave it now, just don’t have the taste. I still use it from time to time, but I don’t search for it lol….

    I've done a few iron butt rides. I would love to be able to do the full rally that happens every 2nd year.
    I keep normal disposable rubber gloves in my saddle bags. Great for the cold in a pinch..
    Rode home from fort McMurray once, it was -12c (10 american) I had to take a shirt from my laundry bag and tucked in behind my zipper on my jacket. It was freezing my esophagus.

    Its interesting stuff for sure. So far I'm liking this better than the yellow iron.

    Sunshine state will generally stick ya on the platform if the WIM gets ya over 77,500lb gross.

    Reg's state 40k per tandem, but they also give a 10% tolerance so really 44k back there they will let ya roll.

    Didn't even realize you was down here.!
    The Lady has been under the weather so just been keep'n an eye on her last week or so..

    The one that’s done every 2 years…are you referring to the HokaHey Rally, where they have 10k miles in 10 days, no motel, all 2 lane?

    I reckon I still have my cold skills from my time at Fort Mac as it didn’t bother me. Got a film of oil on my visor and as the sun up, I cracked open the visor and rode. Suddenly, I lost almost all vision. Had a friend ride in front of me so I could see his tailight, but soon, this wasn’t enough. I went off-road because I could no longer see.
    We stopped at some diner to rest my eyes. Couldn’t see the waitress or read a menu. Took an hour or so rest to get 50% back.
