I'd be happy if the wife just let me go to Sturgis for two weeks next summer.

Pack up all your stuff for the Sturgis trip and be all ready to go. Then, the day you want to leave, admit to the wife you had a little fling with the teenage girl down the street. Tell her you didn't mean to do it, it "just happened"... about a dozen times or so over the past few months. ... and she doesn't have to worry about the baby because the chick agreed to get an abortion, you just have to pay for it, and you have some money stashed, so it's no big deal.

At that point, your wife will likely DEMAND you leave. Hang your head, apologize quietly, tell her you understand her being mad, and you want her to know that, in spite of your actions, she is the only woman you will ever love. With your tail between your legs, shuffle out the door and head to Sturgis.

Two weeks later, come home from Sturgis and admit to her you made up the whole things about the teenage girl because you wanted to go to Sturgis.

She'll be happy you didn't cheat on her, and relieved it was just that you wanted to go to Sturgis. Life will be good again. :-)

Not me. If I hit the start button on my bike, my wife is jumpin' on the back. She loves riding and never misses a chance to get out and ride.

Then I'd have to get all three of us on the scoot. ... and if that was gonna happen, I think we'd just go back in the house and figure out something fun for the three of us to do there.

Getting back on topic, regarding the poll. I responded with the 5th item, although I think maybe fraud is a bit too strong a word. My feeling is this, and I've posted this before. There is a half million dollars at stake, with that kind of money on the line it's going to bring out all sorts of plans and ideas to cheat. Here's a scenerio: The organizers have said that they will pass out maps of each leg at the checkpoints, not before. I assume it's not going to be straight forward directions, it's very easy to make a map that is both vague and ambiguous, doing so will throw a good portion of the riders off track. I'm sure this will be part of the game purely for entertainment purposes for the tv audience. Well, a person on the know, on the inside, could easily whisper some hints to one of his rider buddies to help him make the right route decisions. I just think the person who wins will have had help, one way or another, or maybe just a bit of favoritism. It's not really a race, its a reality show, like survivor or big brother, there will be all sorts of politics behind the scenes, they'll want certain characters or personalities to be up front and in the running for the money. It's better for TV that way. Just some regular Joe on a stock bike with no particular charisma or flamboyance wont be of any interest to the viewing public, maybe they'll help him find the wrong route.

I don't know, I don't trust them, I don't even know who they are, so I'm out. I'll do the ride one day on my own, on my terms, with my wife on the back.
