nother nice ride

Nice day here in my part of NC and so went for a ride and clocked 75 miles on the Nomad including a stop for a good, hot lunch...it was all country roads with no divided highways....At one stop light I had a honey bee light on my windshield...I quickly lowered my face shield.... :-/

The new mustang seat and my fanny are getting to like each other more..with the addition of a sheepskin n the seat I felt great...

Biking..I've said it before and I'll say it again....why did I wait until becoming a geezer to get back into it after an absence since the early fifties...

All regards,

Just be glad you decided to get back in the saddle...

...it should never be too late.

I also waited too long. Sounds kind of gloomy but I wanted to get my 4 kids raised and on their own where they didn't need me financially anymore before I started riding. I thought I had succeeded but in today's economy, who knows.

I waited until a couple of my children where own there own before starting to ride. Rather than waiting until I was a geezer, I decided to get enought life insurance to replace my income.
