Default won the race

Had a few young guns roll up to my apartment Friday am 3 on sportys 1 on an 883 iron. over coffee they said lets take a ride to Victoria and back.(200mile round trip) one of them said don't worry old man we will wait for you if you fall behind.(I ride a 98 fatty) took this as a challenge so I says if I get back to my apartment first you take me to Montana Mikes if you guys get back first I'll buy. so we fueled up and off we went the ride up there was great very little traffic I stayed in the middle of the pack got to Victoria made a loop around the Harley dealer and headed back poor saps they did not take into account that my fatty has 7 gal. tanks(220miles) so while they stopped to fuel up I was on my way got home ran inside change into clean jeans and pretened to be asleep on the recliner when they came in the door. They sho got some good ribs at Montanas and the best part is they was free.

I don't know where Victoria is or where Montana Mike's is, but I know you were enjoying the whole experience. As my dad once told me, the older I get, the smarter he becomes! How true it is. Youth is definitely wasted on the wrong people.

And of course you just rolled the throttle open a little more, after they pulled over for gas? Great tale! Makes getting older all the more worthwhile.
