He got that shot just as I leaned on the throttle out of that turn and shifted the weight back. Such a fun stretch of road.

I’m at almost 112,000 miles. Still gives me many smiles per gallon. I feel like I’m just using it properly.

Warning, this is an enormous image. Be aware before clicking the thumbnail. Posted from my iPad, no good editing tools at hand... just wanted to share.

(I’ve been on a road trip from Jersey down to the Florida Keys, where I had a gig to play. This is on the way back. Car is filthy. )


Awesome!

Ha! Not at all. I mean, maybe you’re an asshole but not because of that

I was just pretending while you were doing the real thing. Looks great!
