I can't wait for Winter to be over so ****'s can get out there and ride again.
If you want to:

1. Give up your guns
2. Pay 5 times the taxes you do in NC
3. Pay x three for the same house here that you have in NC
4. Live in a completely liberal controlled state
5. Have a guy riding bitch behind you in assless chaps and it be completely acceptable
6. Smoke pot recreationally while walking down the street
7. BUT still have bathrooms labeled specifically for Men & Women....

then move to California where we ride year round. You're welcome here where the water is warm, the sharks are many, and we know that you can multiply by 12 to get foot pounds on an inch pound torque wrench!

No argument here....other than about the "quality" of HF precision tools!

Having a guy riding bitch behind you in assless chaps and it be completely acceptable, or if you from out of town, ridding directly behind that same guy with assless chaps and wishing you should of stayed home....

Except now every time you close your eyes that image is permanently imbedded into you cornea.... Nope, will put up with the four seasons here in the north east, a fair trade off for sure!!!

LOL!
Reminds me of years ago when I mentioned to my Great Uncle that I hoped to someday take a leisurely cruise to Key West, Florida. He snapped back at me "Key West? KEY WEST? What the HELL has got into you, boy? That part of the country is the end of the world, and Key West is the jumpin' off place!"
Several years later, I bought a brand new corvette, cruised down the coast, saw a night time space shuttle launch, then eased into Key West for a few days. I saw what He meant. I was very, very glad to get the hell out of that place! I feel that California would be similar!
Think I'll just stay in Sweet Home Alabama - where the skies are so blue...

I've been to to Key West, California. I thought that scenery was unique to San Francisco....I was naive.
