And honest to God he says, "How will you get there if men can't go?"
Well, women know how to ask for directions...
Perhaps he was thinking that motorcycles still only have kick starts.
Lets face it, some of those old bikes were so tight guys had a time starting the bastards.
And then there were the bikes that were just tempermental, and sometimes would kick start on the first try while other times they wouldnt start for 20 minutes. (I had an old 53 Harley that when the weather was nice, started first time every time BUT if it was raining, or snow etc, it damn near took an act of god to start, which means that it fired right up as soon as I was completely soaked or damn near frozen in place.)
Then there are those 'die hard' bikers that go to these great meets in a motor home with their bikes on trailers.
I mean come on, if you are going to a bike rally, you ride the bike, carry a sleeping bag and rope and tarp to make a tent and a shelter for your baby (if you got a girl with you, she can get under the tarp as well.)
The last time I went to Sturgis, I saw so many motor homes with bike trailers I was thought it might be an RV gathering rather than a bike rally.
Then there are the 'toy hauler' rv's and camping trailers.
The damn things have a garage in them!
Hey Oside, I am planning a trip to Yuma for next spring, to the home of an old army buddy. Since I finally got next to the last item on my firearm bucket list, I have decided that I need a mount to ride.
My buddy inherited his father's three warehouses of bike parts (frames, motors, etc) from his father's and grandfather's old Harley and Indian dealership.
I figure a thirty foot trailer would be perfect for the trip.
