Default tough decision

how many of you are faced with a decision whether to take out your harley or to take the classic or antique car out for the day????? Since there are only 2 days in a weekend and if you only have 1 day of nice weather which one wins out? I try to alternate outings between vehicles,my father and I restored the 55 bird and I hate to see it just sit and not be used..I have always said if it is going to sit and not be used you might as well get rid of it...If you have any opinions throw them out there......

I'm afraid I can't feel your pain, but you could take turns.

Wish I was so lucky to have a decision like that on the weekends.
The best I get is "Out for a solo ride or shopping with the OL"
....hmmm.

Use a two headed coin and call the Harley heads, and just drive the car to work
