Remembering

I was fortunate enough to meet these great guys at a stop in Connecticut while on my way to the Rolling Thunder Rally. I believe they were from upstate New York and had all served in Vietnam,  some together. They were on their way to the rally which was an annual event for them. For me they helped me realize this is much more than about motorcycles gathering. It's about bringing awareness to America's veterans and acknowledging how much they gave. Lets hope our fat politicians who enjoy luxurious lifestyles  remember who fought and gave so much, so they can live like that. 

These gentlemen gave a lot, lets make sure America gives back.  

I can not express how honored I feel to have been in their company if only for a few minutes.

America thanks you.

Detailing the ones you Love ... Harley-Davidson

Harley-Davidson

One of my favorite things to do when the weather is cold or inclement  is to detail my Harley-Davidson motorcycles. I have a pretty good setup with a 30' x 40' foot basement which I nicknamed Man-Town. It has the basics of  what everyman should have in a Man-Town. Harley-Davidson motorcycles of course, a motorcycle lift with a roll around tool-seat for easy access while cleaning, and a roll around tool chest with all the proper tools and cleaning materials necessary to get the job done right. Besides the motorcycles, there is a refrigerator just for beer and a flat screen television for watching my favorite sports teams. Also there is a networked computer for researching parts and accessories just in case I get the urge to add something. What else could a man ask for? If someone is looking for me they know this is where they are likely to find me. I will spend hours upon hours in Man-Town caressing and polishing my bikes with oh so ever loving care.  My wife has often said to me I wish you paid as much attention to me as you do those bikes. Then I will reply, well Honey if you treated me as good as they treat me I would. ha"

This is my domain, it's where I relax..
