Nothing wrong with classics: Elvis, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Model T’s, 55 Chevy, 57 Chevy, any vette before 68, grilled cheese sandwich, Evo’s. and the list goes on and on..Some of us might be considered "classics" too...But I won't go there..


EVO 4 EVER!!!

Ah man buckweet, you had to go there with the baby bag of peanuts dropped into the bottle of coke trick, that was good. How about boiled peanuts, or that bottle of chocolate drink, was it the original yoo-hoo or the one that came before? Damn I feel old, I can't even remember??? Chocolate chip cookies dunked in milk, Fig Newton’s...An original chocolate shake (malts DO NOT COUNT, they are fake and an alien trick) You ever dunk your grilled cheese sandwich in a bowl of hot tomato soup??

I must be a younger old, I believe you were thinking of the old Chocolate Soldier. Name probably pulled for political correctness.

I have had several bikes, including two TC's a Road King Police and a E-glide standard. At this time I'm on a 1989 Ultra classic, its is old in its own way, but the bike has been taken care of and I get told it looks like 95 or 96 only has 34,000 on the clock. I 've had bullit proof Shovels in wide glide frames and Iron head sportsters.
The ultra may not be as much of a hot rod as the TC's seemed to be but I really enjoy the ride, comfort, and reliability.

LOL, and sometimes this old timer looks at the new crop of young guys, and wonders, "Was I really that stupid?"

(And knows the answer is an unqualified, "YES!")
