I rode to Wickenburg, AZ this morning. There's an old highway that connects Wickenburg to metro Phoenix called the 60, a great bike route! Anyway, a lot of bikes make this run over the weekend. So, I ventured out hoping to play with (dare I say) a Harley pack but they usually leave me (15-20 mph above the speed limit and I've seen cops in the weeds).

So on the way back a Harley (2 up) passed me.... Then I happened to meet them at the light and decided to pass on the left. Next thing I know, the Harley dude was racing with a chic on the back (of all the nerve :). Well, shit went down after flexing the Thunderbird throttle, clicking a few gears and left him like he was standing still...game over.

And Go Arizona Cardinals!

You wouldn't wanna race with me Rich cause you'd win every single time,and so would anyone else who wanted to take me on. My racing days are OVER,TOOT Finae.I just poke along,dig on my tunes, and mind my business.But when I'm pokin along,I don't drive like an ole lady either,I do roll,but, within reason.

Harleys would mess with me now and then and the results were always like yours. But i swear since i put triumph logos on the front and back of my helmet it rarely happens anymore.
