Default Should I/Shouldn't I????

Got a business trip tomorrow to Kitty Hawk, NC. About 4 1/2 hours away. The weather is going to be in the 70's and mostly sunny. Now, I can take the old work truck, a 4X4 Ford Super Duty Crew Cab, or I've just cleaned the SuperGlide and got a teaser ride in this weekend to check everything out. I guess the hotel has an iron to press my shirt for the meeting on Wed. Two days on the Glide, company time, except I will have to buy the gas, whadya think??

Depends on the customer (if it is a customer) some will like it some will think you are mixing too much pleasure with business and complain. Yes that's right some aholes will actually pick up the phone and pitch a bitch because they don't want a "biker" visiting their company. Now on the flip side of that I have 2 clients that make parts for the MoCo and they would be all smiles & thumbs up. [8D]

KB, I'm not selling. These are university/govt. folks that want my expertise. Like I said, hotel has an iron so I can press my shirt. Meeting is at the hotel conference center. I'll wear jeans and leave my leathers in the room.

Not much I can imagine better(at least that doesn't have legs and bitches)than pulling up in the Outer Banks of Carolina on a Harley. Ride her!
