1000 miles ridden
05/12/08 at 16:47:18

Today, I went over 1000 miles. So far, it has been a blast. I am 69 and wish I had started riding 50 years ago. Did 175 miles with a club yesterday and yeah, my butt was sore. Looking at the COP seat that Gort is sharing on how to install.

Friday night I got caught in the rain everyone of you have done this, but it was my first time. Just slowed down a bunch and took corners very slowly and had no problems. Got a great tip. Put holes in a garbage bag for the head and arms. Fold up the bag really small so it fits into your tool box or put it in a saddle bag if you have them. This will help keep you dry.

I am 69. Need I say more

I am 58 and have been riding for 43 years and love every minute of it...even when caught in a thunderstorm with hail and icy rain driven by 40 mph winds It is all part of the experience.
