Re: Hell Ride
Sorry, but no. It those damn southerners who have accents. Considering virtually everybody in the US came through the Northeast(specifically, Ellis Island) in the last 180 years or so, we can unabashedly say, you people are the ones needing elecution lessons.mekender wrote:cept those damn Yankees and those Minne-soda-ans
As for the Minnesotans, They talk funny because they're so close to Canadia. Damn Canadiadans, trying to confuse us with their bacon and their "ehs". Trying to subvert us with Hockey and Curling.. They're up to no good I tells ya! NO GOOD!

Not mine, but close to my 69 pre-unit trumpet. Man I miss that bike.

Yeah, I like the clean, no clutter look on 'em, and they handle much better than a radical rake chopper.

Re: Hell Ride
I have to apologize to Highspeed for the mistake about "the gents" bike. Spotted some promo shots in a copy of Iron Horse today and the engine is indeed a shovel.

Re: Hell Ride
It's very plain you know a lot about ( real ) bikes, no apology needed whatsoever
