Good old tug hill gotta be somewhere around you. And if the snow doesn't come to you, you have to go to the snow.

I drive 300 miles minimum to find it. Mostly ride the northwoods of Wisconsin. Besides, what else is there to do in winter up here in the midwest?

Anyway......I'm trying to be content with this bike. I really like it. Just going down a road now, and trying to stop it. Buy something, get it to where I want it, only to sell it at a monster loss.

Had a boat a while back. Thought a nice cabin cruiser would do the trick. Then was just reminded of the pain in the rear of owning a boat. It sucks!

Thanks to the guy who posted all that b.s. about owning a boat. lol! Kinda made me laugh for a moment, then I threw up in my mouth!

I already have two cars I don't drive, two snowmobiles I barely ride, and the bike has been very good to me. I can fire it up and go with little to no cost.

I have to stop the madness! But it's hard. Anyone fighting the fight that I do, knows what I'm talking about.
A.D.H.D. is a real ****! Not even joking.......
Glad I could help

+1. Hadn't owned a boat since the 70's so two years ago I decided to buy one. 24" SeaRay 240 Overnighter. Really nice boat but I forgot that BOAT stands for "break out another thousand". Little use because of all the hassle and lots of money for maintenance. Gave the boat to my Nephew last month.

If I had all of the $$ I spent on boats over the years I could retire. I'm done with boating!
