JD booth is right by the parking garage at the Edge Water. He has a huge space rental fee for the weekend, so I figured it was the least I could do.

I lived in an apartment complex with maybe 200 apartments. I had no garage but we did have car ports. I used to park my bike under the car port, lock my neck and putting a huge Master lock on my rear sprocket. About 2 in the morning I have someone pounding on my door. I woke up and answered the door and here was a guy, standing there on my porch just getting home from work and he asked me, are you the guy with the black Harley? I said yes I was, it was a 78 Super glide. He said when he pulled into the parking lot there were 3 or 4 guys lifting it into a truck bed. When they seen him, this guy started yelling and beeping his horn, they dropped it and took off. I thought, "You no good M*#@er F@*@er's. They did a little damage when they dropped it. Well, I got the bike fixed and bought another huge Master lock I put on the chain, the one on the sprocket and locking the neck. I thought SURLY they would never come back to the scene of the crime, tying it again having almost gotten caught the 1st time. Did you notice I said "the 1st time"? Less than a week after I got it back, again I have someone banging on my door. These guys didn't screw with no locks and there were only 2 of them this time and they new they couldn't lift it so do you know what they did? They pulled up, threw a big chain around it and took off DRAGGING it across the parking lot until they could get away from the Apt. and help to load it. When this person pulled into the parking lot they dropped the chain and took off like a bat out of H$ll leaving my bike there in the middle of the parking lot beat all to hell. That one cost me 2 or 3 grand and that was back in the early 80's when that was A LOT of money! They didn't care about any damage because they must have just been after the motor, tranny or what ever they didn't ruin to part it out. I was NEVER so mad in my life, HOW BALSY WAS THAT? You know, 3 or 4 guys can lift a bike and throw it in the bed of a truck and be gone in under 2, maybe 3 minutes if that. That people, is a true story so help me God. From then on, after I got it fixed, I sold it and bought a 75 MG midget. I knew I didn't have a place to store the bike so I sold it and the MG was a rag top so I still got to ride in the open air. There is NOTHING worse, IMHO, then a liar a cheat or a thief!
