if you owned a multi-billion dollar corporation that prided itself on making motorcycles for tough guys, clothing for tough guys, black doo-rags, black fingerless gloves, flame paintjobs, fat rear tires, big horsepower stroker motors, skull emblems, black leather vests, engineer boots, and all the other stuff that is supposed to be hardcore, for the hardcore bikers....... why the HELL AM I LISTENING TO MELISSA ETHERIDGE IN A DEALERSHIP?!?!?! whos the music consultant at harley davidson? hammer? this is terrible.

and so... i'm back

at work. sucks. that was so much fun i didn't want to stop. i was half tempted to haulass home, see my family and friends, and hi-tail it back here to milwaukee. oh well. maybe next time.

all in all, what a kickass time. i'd been waiting for this for months, and it was even cooler than i anticipated. 800 miles to hiltons VA without so much as a sputter out of my shovel. i need to call moon and thank him for building a kickass motor.

dave and i did our best on sunday to absolutely destroy both shovels. to no avail. i ended up running off the road stabbing the brakes way to hard on a 15mph turn. luckily it stayed up and neither me nor the bike received any major damage. dave then proceeded to take the lead the rest of the way back to the campsite.

never in my life did i think you could have so much fun on a rigid frame chopper. i don't think we went under 55mph at any one point in that sprint (besides running off the road).

the trip home was just as beautiful, maybe even more so. 23 has got to be the prettiest road anyone has ever built. feels like riding a giant rollercoaster for God knows how many miles. perfect.

i couldn't have asked for a better trip, or a better party then shadymayhem. what a ton of fun. not a single fight. not a single injury. not a single person had a bad time. to those that read this and had anything to do with organizing this event, thanks. thanks for bringing it back to the way it used to be. thanks for making a run the way a run should be. none of that bull-westcoast-ride-to-the-show-thats-20-miles-away. a real run. 1600 mile round trip. killer.

there must be something in the rain....

every inbred brainless sack of poo in the city of milwaukee decided to call my phone and come to my counter today:

cletus: I'm looking for... um.... uh.... (waves cupped hand in air in stroking motion) uh... pipes... mufflers.... for my 04.... um sportster. yea, sportster.

me: what kind of pipes are you looking for?

cletus: um, i don't know. the name starts with an H.

me: hooker?

cletus: i guess so.

me: well, if i show you a picture, can you identify them?

cletus: no.

i had to place the stool i was using on the other side of the room for fear that i might try to shove it up the next customers ass.
