Default Riding Mascots



I found this little fellow when I was on a service call at a local bank. They were selling them on behalf of the Salvation Army, so I thought "What the heck...cute little bear, and a good cause! I decided he would make a good "back watcher" on my Ultra, sooooo.....there he sits!
Was just wondering how many here keep similar stuffed animals and such on their rides as a "mascot".

(Yeah.....it's a slow evening.....lol )

I was given this guy as a joke gift. He supposed to keep me company on long solo rides. I include him in all the pictures I take on long tours.



Chicago



The Badlands



Mt Rushmore



Sturgis



Cody, WY at the Irma Hotel



Pacific Coast Highway



Death Valley



You get the idea.

Hes travelled for thousands of miles with me. Makes the wife happy to see him while I'm road tripping.

I don't have a mascot, but I do have a fox tail that hangs off the back of my bike.

Toypuller, that's a good story and funny pictures.

Toypuller, There are hickers that do this as well except they leave the item at the new spot they visited and post the cordinates on a forum. Another hicker will venture to this place, pick him up and take him to the new destination. They also post pics. Look's like your's has been around the block.
