That's what I like about bikes over women...bikes don't care if you look at other guys bikes. Or they don't mind if you have more than one. They don't even get pissed if you ride some other guys bike. ![]()

Re: North Carolina Riders
It's not in me to let a little BS with a buyer here deter me from my favorite place on the net. I can't stay away from you boys too long, but I will keep my activity limited from now on. I learned I would rather sell to a newbie with little FB as I would one of the HIGH FB members. I am sure not all are bad, but I am gonna assume that they are, and use extreme caution. I think the high FB count only gives them reason to be even bigger dicks than they already are as they think they are experts in all areas, and are never wrong. With that said, sorry I gotta miss the ride! Hate not getting to see you boys. Don't forget about Aug 11 up here. ![]()
If you can make it, LMK.

It wasn't all bad! I now have numerous PM's about some of the things that were for sale in that thread, and I have a few more "fav's" on my bikes this am. Hell maybe I should get in the spotlight a bit more often. ![]()

You guys are a bunch of cradle robbers. ![]()
I'm only 7 years older than my wife.
I just act like I'm 7 years younger than her. ![]()
When you compute the length of time between the "EVENT" and "THE NOSTALGIA FOR THE EVENT", the span seems to be about a year less in every cycle.
Eventually the nostalgia cycles will be so close together that people will not be able to take a step without being nostalgic for the one they just took.

Well, I was trying to steer the conversation to "Why bikes are better than women" There was a bike theme at first, and then the cradle robbers came in bragging of their conquests with younger members of the opposite sex. ![]()

Re: North Carolina Riders
So my daughter told me the other night that she wants a "flip flop" paint job on her mini. I'm not sure if I'll be able to pull this one off. Lenny, how much to do a mini frame in a Black cherry flip flop paint? My guy here is booked up till christmas.
