I think you and I took that road at greater speed a few times when I was still down there.
Shush! |

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

Is that still the case? It hasn't quit raining over here. Gloria is pissed as hell because she just washed & waxed her car this morning.  |

Nice ride today but sorry to cut it short a bit........... Interesting coming up Snake Road. I think that was the first time I stayed in 2nd gear & had it cranked up to 9K. Could feel a whole different pull on that back tire as opposed to to running in the middle rpm fat torque range in 3rd gear like I usually do.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.
