Yes, she will be gone tomorrow night. I have been weepy about it for two days now. My BF can't understand.." It's just a machine!!". But it's not to me. We have had adventures and travels and met lots of interesting people....together.
We had such a amazing day together that very early morn on the Blue Ridge,riding well before dawn, then having breakfast while the sun slowly came up over the mountains....together
She is in every pic I take when we travel.. PA,VA,WVA,OH, NY, KY,MD and Nova Scotia,Quebec ( blech) all over Ontario, a bunch of other states and provinces that I can't remember....together.
I took her for a last ride yday and the odometer rolled over to 98,999 and I stopped to take a pic. I really wanted to roll her over to 100,000 myself but I guess thats not happening.
Harley guy says that it prolly won't even roll over to 100,000 by the end of next summer........WHAT!! She was made to tour,tour,tour!!!!! She will be bored s**Itless just sitting in the garage.
I put 40,000 k on her each season. Up at four in the morning and loaded up and rolling away to a new adventure. Riding 8,10,12 sometimes 16 hours at a time.
What a champ she is!!! God, I LOVE that bike.
Yes, I have another bike already in the garage, a beautiful 2006 white LE. Very low kilometers on it,so you know she will be getting miled up in no time. But the Le is almost haughty in her white beauty,scornful at having to carry a tent and pink flip-flops. Turning up her long beaky nose at the sight of a bungee cord.
Hardly a mark on it,unlike my 02 that carries the telltale signs of many,many miles of roadgoing excitement.
Please Harley guy, load her up and take her out. When you get to those corners, please lean her over,way over,she will go, willingly,look underneath,see those scrape marks on the lower fairing? That was a fun day!!
Show her a tent, a map and a camp cup and she will be eager to rock n' roll right outa there, trust me. Show her a piker on a Zx or CBR and she will leap and roar,they are just prey to her, another target to be passed in a blur of smudged color.
And no one poses at Timmy's like a busa. No one. We don't need to arrive accompanied by an overly obnoxious exhaust, or glowing lights. We just roll up quietly,regally,and park. Classy.
So Harley guy,please, don't leave her in the garage all summer,just getting a glimpse of the sun every time the door rolls up and down. Just give me a call, I will be happy to saddle her up and take her out for a lovely 12 hour day of riding.
Just like old times.....
( Is this just a chick thing....?)
