I've never told this story but I think the time may be right due to the way this topic seems to be going. Age Gap etc... Sometime around 04 - 05 I built a kit bike. CCI, Hard Core II, 110 Rev Tech . When it was finished I thought it was the cats as-. So I brought it out to go show it off to my pardners at the local tavern. Comming off the interstate I was stuck at a traffic light under the overpass. I'm sittin there, under the bridge, listening to the roar and thump waitin for the light to change when an elderly guy, maybe in his 80's ( I was in my 50's) pulled up beside me on a Susuki Bergman 750 scooter. Set of golf clubs bungeed on, double knit pants, loafers etc... me in my sleeve less tee shirt, do rag, leather vest and boots. We glanced over at each other, nodded, revved up the motors and we knew it was on! The light changed green and I never saw anything but a nine iron, a pitching wedge and his a-- about 40 yards ahead! Lets put this way.. we are all in this together regardless of our preferences. Motor heads are motor heads!! Before I took Geratol I couldn't spit over my chin, now I take Geratol and can spit all over my chin! Hang in there guys and happy motoring.
