Is it the suspension, or the riding position?

The riding position is fine.  More upright these days, clip-ons gone back to regular handlebars (don't tell Lars - he'll lecture me  ;D).

The ride "quality" is too harsh for the shit roads here and my old frame.

The problem with my Monster was/is the foot peg position. Locks my hips.

I understand that I'm old.

Take your medicine. ;D

Morning.

Nothing tops the position of the Monster I had to pick up for the bacon junkie. He had those rearsets so high I had to fold in half. I kept getting hip cramps and having to just float a leg in space until I got used to it. Protip: don't ride the bike owned by the professional gymnast-those people ain't right.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Going on a bit of a rant.  Nate, please delete if inappropriate.

The shooting today.

About two miles directly south of me.

That particular outlet mall is extremely popular and packed on days like today.

I was heading to a fundraiser in Dallas this afternoon.  I drove down the street that the mall can be accessed from about 10-15 minutes after the first report of gunfire.  First responders were still arriving on scene and trying to secure the area.  Had no idea what had happened/was happening, but when I saw the sheer number of emergency vehicles and officers donning tactical gear, I knew it was bad. 

On top of that, a threat of a shooting tomorrow in Fort Worth at the historic stockyards led to an arrest.  I went to a concert at the stockyards last night.

This is so make the beast with two backsing stupid.

Morning [coffee]

Hard to say "good" after your post Randy.  Somewhere every day.  Unbelievable and  beyond stupid.
