Three years, eight months

I just realized I have had my Harley two months longer than I owned my Nomad. Time flies!

I wonder if a Rushmore bike is in his future? I think he'd have a problem finding such a groovy color again though. I've only seen one other Limited in that color.

I can't believe I only kept my 2012 concourse for 7 months but I have every intention of keeping the 2014 concourse a bit longer then that.that and my new Polaris ace 570 should
keep me satisfied for awhile both onroad and offroad.

I just realized it's been five years and six months since I hit that last deer on my other Nomad. May she RIP.

Maybe it's time to hit another one, you must be out of meat by now

I think its great that those of you that have added so much info on here over the years
are still on here. Your new rides have done as well or better than your Nomads. Thanks
for making this site what has been and continues to be, I still have a great time reading
all of the post! I hope you all have a wonderful and safe Holiday Season!
