Default So I want to peep the BMW's

I placed an order with Cabela's in Hamburg PA for in store pick up. Since Port Clinton is only 3 miles up the road, I figure I'll stop in at Hermy's BMW and check them out.


They closed on thursday and won't re-open until monday


Dammit

Motorcycle shop employees normally get ripped off for holiday time. Most Federal Holidays are Mondays - a day the shop is normally closed. About the only 'time off' a shop employee gets is on the 4th, Thanksgiving, and Christmas (and sometimes not even that).

That bike is also on my list, I'll likely have one of those in my stable within the next 2-3 years
