255 Mile Test Ride Today.... Empty 255 Mile Test Ride Today....

Post  Smokin'joeVRCCDS#0005 Mon Mar 30, 2009 10:07 pm

Took off this morning to see if I could still ride after being down for awhile with some health issues. I also needed to check my bike out after replacing the rear tire with a DarkSide and new bearings before headin' out this week to Texas. I'm glad to report both the Valkyrie and I did pretty good today. Hooked up with Wimp and Harley Joe for a ride through the stompin' grounds these guys are retired and do nothing but whatever they want everyday some good ol'boys that love to ride.Heres a shot of my bike and Harley Joes at the hook-up point Sagebrush Steak House this afternoon in Oak Ridge , Tennessee.

When I got this bike I was'nt crazy about the color but the more I ride it the more I like it and I always get " Thats a beautiful motorcycle " from folks on the road.
