    Arrow Good things

    My light bar went out. Took it back to the dealer who had installed it 10 months ago. They found and repaired the loose connection and we're back in business. No charge.

    They said they'd have a 2000 demo bike soon, but wouldn't let me take one out for a spin

    I went out and got lost in the country. Saw some lifesize Blues Brothers stautes sitting out in front of some store in Tappahanock. I was cracking up

    Averaged 46 mpg too, overall a great day. I'm usually pretty greedy on the throttle and only get 34 I'm going to have to start throwing my d camera in the saddlebags to get ya'll some pics.

    You need to take pictures as you go, that way when you get lost you can check your pictures to see if you have already been there.

    Sounds like a nice ride. We're packing up to go for our weekend ride; we're leaving early in the morning. I just mounted my GPS to my handlebars; hadn't mounted it since I got the new bike. Can't wait to get out on the road!

    I was driving home and saw a sign that said indian reservation. I haven't seen a reservation before so I turned that way. A couple hours later I was cruising the same country roads that I was on last week. I guess I'm just no good at getting lost

    I drive an hour north I'm in DC. 1 hour south I'm in Richmond. Any other direction and you'll see old farms. Maybe you guys would like to see pics of old abandoned barns?

    Use loctite blue, that should stop them from backing out.
