Last night Betty got too slow into the driveway, dumped her Lowrider, hurt her pride and broke her floorboard. No helmet, no harm, no foul! There's so much more to it than speed. I ride 'cruisers' cause they keep me from getting as many tickets. That just happens to be a fact. I've had spills from 90mph to 0 mph, injuries and scars, 42 years of riding, already have a framework to put wheel chair ramps on my '75 FLH for future use if necessary. That's my retirement plan.
Now, let's all just,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, SHUT UP AND RIDE!
And the folks on the crusiers, that I know, don't need to look into windows as they past...they're riding for the ride...not to be cool...so admit that your statement was bullshit and be done with it....it doesn't matter WHAT you ride...we ALL know the risks that we're taking each time we throw a leg over the saddle....

You forget Miss Angel that I live in different world than you do, cruiser folks around here park their rides next to their Escalades and H2's. They spend twenty minutes primpin them selves in the mirror before they start the motors. My statements are true to me and my area, beside's, it's more risky to reply to you here than it is to climb on ANY MOTORCYCLE sober or nottttt!..............................Ain't you got some cow's that need a milkin or sompin?
Nope...the only thing I have to do with any kind of farm animal is get the bullshit you post outta the way! If you feel replying to me is too risky, maybe you should stop replying...or at least stop replying with ignorant sayings...I've ridden in your area...nothing too scarey there...well, not scarey for a real bike rider anyway!

Too Bad about your "Buds".............. Speed don't kill, it's the sudden stop that gets you. Around here we loose one biker a week on average, usually riding a cruiser without a helmet and getting smacked by a car or looking at himself in the windows and running into one. People on Fast Bikes that I know tend to drink less and be more responsible on the road.
Bullshit! I've seen People on fast bikes speeding and passing in between cars that are traveling side by side....usually riding on one wheel...don't act like speed don't kill Jerry..you're smarter than that....no matter how silly you're talking!!!! Nine times outta ten if you got the speed, you're gonna use..if you use it, you're gonna get hurt...eventually and that's NOT because you ride a crusier and it's NOT because you ride a crotch rocket...it's a fact of life...simple concept!
Woodburn, I'm sorry! As long as you have the attitude that you do, you'll find the one that you're SUPPOSED to be with...she's out there, have faith, my Brother!

Update Jerry, she got a job in Tenn. and hit the road, oh well had a few good times together, no regretes...
Good for ya'll! The millions of dollars and hours I spent on assorted "Date Site's" may have finally payed off for me this time ( maybe ), cautiously optomistic. I was semi sort of temporarily devastated earlier this year after a little fling with a local gal I met at work and took to BikeWeek. This gal is getting closer to my heart every day, she's my idea of a Woman and potential Partner for Life.
It is never too long. lol
Seriously, we all change. No one can speculate or predict what will happen or how you will feel in the future. I would guess that the best thing is too always respect and care for one another, listen to what is being said, be faithful and hopefully the rest will take care of itself. The grass always looks greener, but that too passes.
Go read that old classic "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance." Remember the "dripping faucet".
Peace!!!!!
Good luck.

Dang, Jerry. Knowing a few of those you've met this year I wouldn't say that statement reeks of not burning bridges. By the way.....how many gators can that thing jump at a time (and no, not with a passenger). Keep the shiny side up, Jerry, and don't be transferrin' no road rash onto her skin.
