Default Work sucks

Here I sit at work while I look at the email that my seat has been delivered from MCC and is sitting by the front door all alone. This sucks why can't I just pick 6 little numbers then this nightmare would be over.

Oh well I hope to be able to ride in the next month to give a butt review of what 2 inches of memory foam and a gel pad and lowering it a inch does for the stock seat.

I wish I would have had it 2 weeks ago for my 4k run that would have been sweet.


Stay tuned for more details.

Do what I did, and retire! Had no plans to do it, but after a long career with Uncle, decided to pull the plug. Best decision I've ever made. Got out of the city and moved to Montana. I'm loving life. "Work is over rated anyway".... Remember having a Harley ain't a matter of life and death, it's a hell of alot more important than that! Ride safe, CCRyder

I retired 4 years ago at the age of 46 and couldn't be happier with my decision. I sold my business to a good friend. I now make a whole lot less money, own a smaller house, and live in a small town. I ride whenever I want to, work when I feel like it, and enjoy life like never before
