They just look so good a guy has to fight through the numbness...In time ones *** becomes conditioned to longer and longer rides.

Breaking off the 200+ on the Bare Bones is a manly feat. Kudos Big Tim!!

I think Christine Le Pera must have a perfect *** mold because, while very thin, I survive just fine. I do sit for a living flying airplanes, so that may have an impact on my tolerance of pain.

Well, there was this one time I was late getting back to the house and I had to maintain 110MPH to not get jail time with the misses. I had to ride about 140 miles at this speed and the pressure wore a hole in my skin where my spine ends. The cure is to NOT do those speeds for that long!
