I want chartreuse armchaps just like longride's!

My armchaps are custom made. It has that special cut fringe that is often imitated, but never duplicated. That and the custom chromed sneaky leaker has set me apart from the crowd.

Far apart I'm sure.

Did you get the email from Dr. Balzack? They're back in stock and your new seat will be shipping Monday!

As mentioned previously, I've seen no less SUVs or trucks on the road.$5/gal gas will be the next hurdle to cross but people will stomach it and continue on as usual. Of the new riders that have joined the ranks, maybe 10% of them will stay around but there will be not as many more trying bikes. How are the numbers that MSF and other riding schools posting up?

As for me I'll hopefully buy a new bike this year. The '05 is getting long in the tooth and doesn't fit my riding style now. New or used remains to be seen.
