Ahhh lovely day of rest.
So I get up and head to my local Dunkin Donuts for a nice ice coffee. As I get close I notice all the motorcycles and think "Cool, some club is doing a ride". I was getting all warm and fuzzy thinking about the days when my dad would let me ride on the back of his bike on these rides.
But as I get closer I realize that these arent ordinary Harley riders. These are those damn white collar executives that try to recapture their youth. They seemed to be wondering why the OTHER Harley people that are riding by aren't waving back.
Here's a clue (Remember, Fenix is here to help)
1) The actual purchase of the bike should be done by the rider, like get on it and drive it around. Don't just look at pictures, or see one that looks cool. The bike is an extension of yourself. Like a good pair of jeans. Which brings me to my next point.
2) DO NOT buy every branded Harley peice of clothing in the store where you picked up your bike! And PLEASE do not wear EVERYthing you just purchased all at the same time. You look like a fool. Again, when riding it's about comfort and freedom. You'll get more respect from others if your in a old t-shirt and jeans.
3) Those "hot" harley boots for women, with the thick 2in heel. ......... stop the insanity already. They might look any foot look good, but if you can't walk in them DON'T WEAR THEM!!
4) If you can't lift your leg and get on your bike, and you haven't been drinking, you have 2 choices. Start working on your flexablility or lower your bike. Trying multiple times, having a friend help, or doing the lift leg-lean-hop-hop-hop really does look as stupid as you feel.
That is all for now. Just trying to make the world a better place.
