    Tell me about it.
    Hattar washes my bike every time I get close to their store.
    They're always shocked at how dirty it is.
    I almost had a heart attack when they cleaned it after coming back from up north.
    I wasn't quite ready to part with the grit..

    I keep the chain clean and service it regularly and ride the piss out of it…..
    who needs luster :lol3

    We had so much rain a few weeks ago.
    The ground is still saturated in some places.
    What I love about this picture is what I actually saw when I got home.
    The little green sprigs.

    I have no idea how this post got so long...but it's sweet. I mean I was just a toddler when the first thread hit...., well ok, maybe I was like 36 but...Wow - simply amazing and I bet even Mark Zuckerberg would like to know how you have acquired so many contacts..

    Peach - if you took this thread off the asphalt you'd probably have a cloud of dust following you all the way from San Francisco to Baja. Heck - you could "Save Carnegie" with one appearance.

    You go...:1drink, and please think about getting a Triumph XC800 to explore the dirt roads. You'll never look back.
