What a night!
I got off work early today and decided to shoot down to Kingman for Cracker Barrel from Vegas. Hit a brief sprinkle in Henderson. Kept on Truckin (this is the desert how long can it rain). Nice ride into Kingman stopped to filler up......no bike keys on me they are in Vegas. Shoot down to Mother Road HD dealer they are closed. Caught a guy coming out and told him I forgot my key. He said all keys will open the gas (I didn't know that) He and another employee GAVE me a spare key to open the gas. I fill up and enjoy my CB dinner. Head out highway see an awesome lightning show (wait I'm on a bike) in the direction I'm headed. Get sprinkled on for a few miles. I can't see so I stop to clean my new glasses that I got at CB (didn't notice the light tint). A guy pulls up and offers a windbreaker and jogging pants. Its better than the Tshirt and blue jeans I have on(I live in the desert who has rain gear(Iwill tomorrow)). I get home pull the Harley in the Garage. I go to pull my work van in. Someone has egged the van (great shot I had the window open 2 inches) I had what must have been a EXTRA EXTRA large egg sittin on my dash oozin down the crack. I go to washsaid egg off and I back into the coin slot (large anti theft in place) and get a nice scrape and bruise in the kidney area.
Other than that a nice ride. The CB catfish was good.

Sounds like you got a bit more than you were expecting. LOL, Glad you enjoyed the dinner. I don't mind the rain, at all. Being in the elements is the best part of the ride for me, rain or shine. I don't have rain gear, and it is way down on my list of must haves. Have a goodnight.

RE: What a night!
Great little ride report there. I love hearing about local riding experiences like yours.
Sounds like you got a whole lot of life experiences in a short time that night. Sometimes, ya just get what ya get.
Keep smilin', ridin', postin'!

RE: What a night!
I couldn't get more than three pegs a few time four. I guess all the great trouble free rides that I have had more than make up for the bad one. Getting wet wasn't the bad part it was not being able to see all that well.
