Cats & Motorcycles
These are a couple of my fave things. I was typing up a reply to @bigtom13 about a comment he had made about riding in extreme weather conditions over on the #weekend-engagement. The reply I wrote turned into a mini blog post with photos. So I decided to add to it. Now it is a #caturday post also. Thanks BigTom13 for the inspiration.

When it comes to riding the scoot/bike/harley...
I am no longer Hard Core.
(Bimini Bar-Daytona Ride 2004)
My days of riding in the rain, sleet and yes, even snow! Those days are long gone.

The scoot mostly stays in the garage these days. With only a few short trips to meet for lunch with @pooky-jax, a short off road ride around the farm. No long rides these days. This old custom 1998 Harley is not comfortable at all to ride for long trips.

Technology Drunk Drivers...
I just do not feel safe riding on the highways anymore. I lost my uncle Ron a few years back to a farm tractor that pulled right out in front of his bike on a country road. I have watched several bike accidents happen right in front of me. Four out of five cars that pass me have a cell phone in their hands. It is very deadly out here on the highway.
Thanks for L👀king...
Keep on KrazzyTrukkin...
Lot of thoughtless drivers and then you have the straight out jerks...Like the stud work on you bike seat...😊
I sometimes miss our little rides.

Faith says the same thing. She used to love getting on the back and going on adventures with me...Alas, it's just so dangerous on the roads these days.
The roads have become a dangerous place, not many places left for just a drive or a ride. I guess in the eyes of many drivers I would be a hazard, just because I do the speed limit. I use cruise control a lot, even though I am older now, I have used cruise control for a lot of years and just never saw the point of speeding just to save a few minutes.
Did Sammy-Jo ever go for a real ride with you on the bike?
I usually roll at whatever speed is best for fuel milage. 62-64 mph with this truck.
The Harley is way too loud. Straight pipes, non baffled. She would freak out. I have never even started it when she is nearby.
Yeah for some reason cats really don't like sudden loud noises.
Fuel mileage is something you need to be concerned with it does cut into the bottom line, if I can get out of the way of people that want to go faster than me I usually do, if it is safe to do so.
I miss riding so much and decided to start the process of determining what bike I wanted to get...But alas I decided not to as the roads are so bloody dangerous; So many people inattentive driving and simply not caring about other road users. Dying on a bike isn't my idea of fun.
Fuck, I miss it though!
The cat is so so cute and your motorbike is so awesome. My son love it.
Sammy Jo rocks! Get her to DQ! Nice bike bro. My ride to work
