Default Two H-D's, Six Tunnels

From last week's ride.

Temps were mid 20's when I left, and warmed to upper 30's upon return. Yee ha! Rode through snow showers on the descent to the rendezvous. Have ridden with Chris for four years. Kicked tires at a dealer then rode up Clear Creek Canyon to a lunch place. Connected a digital camera, placed it in movie mode, and it worked OK! Will need to overlook thechrome reflection in the windshield... next time will place the cam closer to the shield. Nevertheless, enjoy the canyon, tunnels, and ride...

BTW, as I was preparing to leave in the chill, along comes Mr. Tom Turkey, agitated by the H-D's rumble, emboldened by his raging mating season testosterone levels, ready to defend his harem. Had to chase him away with a rake. He does attack the bike if not chased away. One of these Thanksgivings...

Nice, admire the lack of vibration. I found closer to windshielfd for glare helps a bit...but now I put a towel behind windshield, tucked into opening between headlight and windshield and back over risers (Deuce). It eliminates 99%...found the reflections were from chrome. If you tuck towel under well and then through windshield mounts it stays put and as bonus reduces wind noise so you can listen to pipes.

Cool, I love that ride. Have you ever eaten at Kermit's? They have some pretty decent green chili.

Vinnie, It is a great canyon run. You know, I've passed Kermit's many times, have heard about their great chili, but have yet to stop in!?!
