Default Sometimes I hate riding to work....

Such as days when something I ordered comes in and I can't haul it home on the motorcycle. It's ironic in a way to order saddlebags, but to need a car to get them back home to the workshop where I can install them.

Oh well, sometimes you just have to wait.

It's not the ride in that I hate, it's the work part. Yeah it sucks wanting to put things on your ride but that work thing does get in the way. It could be worse, without the work it might be harder to order up those things that you need/want.

Yea, it took me almost two weeks before I got in a cage to go pick up my stock pipes after the V&H's went on.

Work stinks and totally gets in the way of my play time. Why can't we start going to work AFTER we are no longer good for anything else? ha ha.

Nice looking ship you got there Gunner!

Cheers!

Now that's what's ironic.
By the time we get old enough to retire, we're to old to enjoy it. [sm=smiley19.gif]

Well, I rode the cage in today so I'll probably tinker with things tonight and get them on. I'll be eager to see how they look since I got a set of Leather Pros bags for my Springer Classic. I almost thought about just riding in today with a wrench in my pocket so I could just install them in the parking lot just to bypass the cage ride in.

The bummer is I have to remove my toolbox for them to fit, but I wasn't necessarily that thrilled with how the toolbox fit on the bike anyway. I'll have to post pictures after I get the bags on since I have not seen a huge amount of pics around here with Leather Pros bags.

For me the sad part would be arriving at work and getting off of the bike.

Robert Benson puts a different twist on things. "I think that the life cycle is all backwards," he writes. "You should die first, get that out of the way, then live twenty years in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You go to college until you're ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a little child, you play, you have no responsibilities, You become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating, and you finish off as a gleam in your parents' eyes!"

Great lookin' Fatboy PoorBoy!(I've noticed it before)

It's gotan"all business" look to it...tasteful, but usuable mods, and the color just adds to the effect. Has a "begs to be ridden" look. Very Nice. Almost perfect!
