    I like fast and loud, but not to ride very far on. It hurt my head.

    I've seen a lot of the young guys go faster in a straight-line but they can't go fast in the curves because they haven't developed the skills to properly set up the corners. :D

    Bout 3 yrs ago, left in the early mornin and rode 750 miles in a day.
    Man I didn't see much. When I got to Kerrville the speed limit was 80, I ran 90 and 95 all way to Ft Stockton.
    Bearly made it there that nite at 9:15.
    I only stopped for gas, and one time to eat.
    That was a hard day. Don't want anymore that long in a day.
    I like 300 mile days. That's enough enjoyment for me. Gotta see whats passin me.
