    ooooowaaaah
    it happened again
    swapped bikes with a stranger on an XR650L
    after 10 miles back on the parking lot he asked about the displacement of the 'Yamaha' he had ridden
    and told the Bear, he was oh so curious about the bike of his dreams, the CRF250X :roll:

    well...we have a saying, don't judge a book by its cover...perhaps you could coin the phrase, don't judge a bike by its color!

    Well , quite honestly... if you wore a nametag that said "EV", even though your name is "Alice"... I would, intially, be calling you...'EV' ....

    even if I looked like 'Alice' (the alu perimeter frame) and carried my ID (the powerplant spells HONDA) open, for everybody to read, too? :roll:

    Wow! There's a lot of people critiquing your bike and gear. Now where have I heard that before? Hee, hee!

    The invite's still open for riding in the park. The terrain might be boring for you. It's not at all technical. If you get the XL plated let me know.

    I think it's pretty funny. I always wanted to take a 57 Chevy and paint a Blue oval on the door for all the people that put Chevy motors in Fords. I guess it gets people stirred up the same way.
    Gravity is the only reason I have scars.
