Damn Harleys!

A lot of the VROC members here in the south east knows my Harley ridding Buddy, "Binky". Unlike most Harley riders he doesn't have that Harley attitude.

Well, he traded up from a soft tail to a little larger bike, and I don't recall which one it was. (I have a lot of pictures of him broken down and me fixin his bike on the side of the road.)

I had a Patriot Guard ride last Saturday and asked him to join me. It was raining, sleeting, and snowing at the same damn time!! We all met at the staging point and rode together to the funeral home.

Well, it came time to head to another point and when we all fired up.... his didn't!! So, as everyone was heading out with the police escort what was I ding?? PUSHING THAT DAMN HARLEY!!! After shoving that thing until my heart felt like it would explode the POS finally fired up.

We tried to find the group but I had no idea where they went. And, even if he rides junk there was no way I was going to leave him by his self.

3 days old a his newer bikes battery was stone cold dead. Since we couldn't find the group then I decided to take my perfect running Nomad and head back home! <G>
Binky... he headed to the nearest Harley dealer and paid $135.00 for a $65.00 battery!
Harleys, building junk for over 100 years!!

I'm sarcastic and have a smart ass attitude. It's a natural defense against DRAMA, BULLSHIT & STUPIDITY!!
