3 Hogs and an Ape
As some of you know, I had a few forum peeps (a few that I actually like) over to the house this weekend.
Gas Man and Cave Man rode out from Detroit with their wives and Tommy rode out of NY. I rode up to State College PA to meet the Motown Militia. 6 hours into their trip and still 2 hours from case de marko. The women were hating life at this point, as it was just as hot Friday as it was going to be on Saturday. I was gonna take them on some of Central PA's best back roads but the women wanted to get to the destination so we did a 50/50 mix of slab and mountains. It was so hot by the end of the 80 mile ride I was intentionally getting the rear to step out a bit. That was fun. First time I've had the rear spin up on me. Noticed it once on accident and then did it a few more times for fun. We hit the Carlisle bike show Saturday, which was hotter than hell itself. Heat index well above 100* and sickening humidity. I didn't take many pics at the show. I'm over the novelty at this point. I've only gone the last few years b/c I didn't pay to get in. And I only went this year b/c Motown wanted to go. HOT AS SHIT. Our arrival: First Buell sighting: Another Buell that I saw last time Gas was out: Some kid having a good time on the wheelie machine: Fighter Fest: I know Gas took a bunch of pics. Hopefully he will post them soon.

Yeah, there were some sick fighters there. I should taken more pics. But I forgot my memory card for my cam and had limited internal memory.

Trip, , I have had plans to get that bike before Gas ever thought of it since he was ridin the Big Dog. I just didn't have the money to drop on it. The price of having kids is that you have to prioritize and set limits on spending. Gas has no kids and spends what almost seems to be willy nilly on the cycles.
