Going downhill the pipes were 'blatting' and 'popping' as the unburned fuel ignited in the pipes every time an exhaust valve opened to release hot combustion gasses. Then he opened the throttle to ascend the other side and it became a series of cracking staccato sonic impacts that sounded like rapid 'hammering' on a 2x4 laying on concrete. I cannot get my head around how any of that is therapy for the rider - and of course - bystanders. Damages goods my fellow riders, damaged goods. Stay clear.

Kentucky Harley ... - GoldOxide_imp - 09-21-2019 The last two days I have been in a cage bouncing between Lexington, Mammoth National Park, Bardstown, and Louisville Kentucky, and sadly, the vast majority of observed m/cs are shiney, late model HDs. They were all in pristine condition. I saw only one 70's CB750, and it looked like it hadn't moved in months. I also counted one BMW adventure, and one gorgeous Indian tourer. The Kentucky county side is stunningly wonderful and the backroads condusive to ride. From what I can tell, the bike of choice is overwhelmingly HD. RE: When the mind wanders: twenty-seven to one! - the Ferret - 09-21-2019 Our yearly Men's Fall Trip was just in the same area. We spent 5 days and rode 1029 miles in that beautiful countryside. Had you seen our group you would have seen 2 Hondas, 2 Yamahas and a Triumph. Another nephew on a KTM was also supposed to be there but had to cancel at the last minute. Also at our hotel were 2 Honda scooters and a Goldwing ridden 2 up pulling a trailer. RE: When the mind wanders: twenty-seven to one! - LongRanger_imp - 09-22-2019 Ferret, why "Men's?" No lady riders or wives allowed? RE: When the mind wanders: twenty-seven to one! - the Ferret - 09-22-2019 Nope it's one trip that is for the men only. Ride all day, no compromising for dinner or lunch (might be pizza 2 days in a row for dinner)and every night we go to the pool to bs. Great way to unwind. RE: When the mind wanders: twenty-seven to one! - peterbaron - 09-22-2019 Ferret, I like your rules...^^ RE: When the mind wanders: twenty-seven to one! - the Ferret - 09-22-2019 Hey they get to tell us how to behave for 51 weeks and one week we rule ourselves. Usually not our finest hour, but we have fun lol RE: When the mind wanders: twenty-seven to one! - GoldOxide_imp - 09-22-2019 I can do pizza everyday of the week. Sounds great! |
