Had a good ride out today.
Up to Hartside, back down Weardale, over to Teesdale and home.
Plenty up at Hartside, mostly big traillies of course, but a couple of sportsbikes too.
Took a while before anyone would talk to me. Most likely cos I was on this :woohoo:
nice ride out

Re: nice ride out
That would be part of the lifestyle HOG Harley's
To be fair to the brand , 3 years ago Stateside , I came across 2 Harley's that had higher ground clearance AND proper motors, AND these guys were seriously good riders ,I wound it on for a while then they both passed me :woohoo: , I hung with them for quite a long time ,then they pulled in and acknowledged the run (thumbs)
I was 2 up but was kinda glad to get back to tour speed as its tiring "holding the pace"
It appears there are Harley modifiers that do it for blingy cosmetic reasons ( though God knows why , roll a turd in glitter and it's still a turd :laugh: ) and there are tuning modifiers which are a whole different breed (thumbs)
