First 2-UP on the DLX
#1



It was soooo nice here today and Jane suggested I take her for a ride on the DLX. I found her an old helmet I had upstairs as both of hers are on the Cape (She made me say that because she does have nice helmets) anyways we had a great ride, hardly any traffic. This is Brant Point Lighthouse,

And this is my house (in my dreams)

"I left my other helmets on the Cape" <-- I can't even type that without sounding like a Kennedy.

Great pics. Gonna have to convince my wife to ride 2 up sometime.

Kajima, I chose them for their color and simplicity. I like the way they look like extensions of the frame. They sweep up immediately, so no chance of them hitting before the pegs. Not that I will ever lean that far on purpose.

Very nice write up, Chapo! Riding around the Cape sounds pretty darn idyllic! Just make sure you stay ON the roads and bridges...! Otherwise you're liable to end up going from "rack to ruin," and then we'd have to dub you "Chapo-quiddick!" Big Grin
