Title: Just washed the bike a few pics
Post by: Todd85fj on April 08, 2012, 08:15:15 PM
Just got back from Conifer which is about 30 miles from Denver.  Easter at the in-laws.  Rode through a bug bug fest so I had to giver her a wash.  Just thought I'd show her off.  :good2:  I have owned her for the last 19 years.

Thanks.  The bags are non on any rail system.  They just hang so they have that sagging look.

It IS great getting old.  Sure beats the option.

Still, it does have some challenges.

So is that you in your Avatar?  If so what year was that taken?

My avatar pic was taken in about 1980.

I'm about 15kg heavier, and my hair is shorter and lighter in color.
I'm glad to report that I can still do everything I did then, it just takes (much) longer to recover.

No you sleep in your leathers because you don't have anyone to do up your corsett so you can get your leathers on  :rofl2: :sarcastic:
