(Sugarloaf Key)
One of my most favorite spots on Earth!!
THE BEST PLACE to have a grilled Mahi-Mahi sandwich, Key Lime Pie and a Caribbean Martini (now that I've taught the bartender how to mix one).
Jeanette and I are driving down to Daytona for July 4th . . . I might just hafta' rack-up some extra miles . . for "LOONCH"(a Templeman-ism).

A bike that's very comfortable to be on for 400 to 500 miles a day. |

Location: South of most, North of few | Mine was comfortable for about...oh...70 miles. No seriously, one could ride in relative comfort for about 2-300 miles on it. Seems like the feeling would leave your fingers at about 30 miles, and return at 70 miles, then all is fine. Vibration is a wonderful thing. (unless you're trying to keep oil or any other liquid contained) |

Riding a motorcycle should be fun. Being uncomfortable does not make it more fun. |

Where HD's are concerned the price of :cool: is too high for me.
Prof, I'm seriously considering a Bushtec next year as well. |

Location: South of most, North of few | John, I know what you mean. Actulally mine left soon after my son was born. I used the money to buy him a college prepaid plan. (better use of the $ anyway) I don't feel as bullet proof as I used to, and with the tourist population down here, It's not too safe on the roads on two wheels anymore. Now I just spend my money on frivolous things...like guitars. |
