I have ridden since I was 12, first bike was a Honda XL 70. Since my son was born I don't ride as much because of the worry of it all. In the last 3 yrs I've maybe logged on 4,000 miles when normaly I would do about 6,000 a yr. I love to ride but I think I'm going to sell my H.D. Road King. I have pushed my luck to many times and it's bound to run out one day. 30 yrs on a bike, maybe it's time to hang up the helmet. __________________ Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.

I saw a nasty accident by me. A young guy and his girlfriend were speeding and missed a sharp turn. The guy panicked and turned way too hard, slipping under another car and being dragged under for a few hundred feet, while his girlfriend flew off and landed in a field. She snapped her neck and died instantly. I've always been scared to get a bike after I saw that. God rest their soulds. __________________ <<BANG>>
