Taking a moment from everyone's busy day to offer a holiday greeting. Thanksgiving is here. Chanukah is approaching. Christmas is just around the corner. And, at least for a few days, Congress is out of session. So everyone has something to be thankful for.

It is snowing here today but I always make a Thanksgiving ride to commemorate a buddy that didn't come back from a ride one Thansgiving. So the day serves the grand and multiple duties of always allowing me an excuse to go for a ride, to allow someone else to feed me huge amounts turkey, to start off the holidays and their good cheer, and to wish friends old and new a happy season.

Happy season to all.

Ditto, your comments, 2lane! And to add to the list of things to be thankful for, this is a good opportunity to slip in another "pat on the back" for Naitram and Moderators for an outstanding site. Maybe I'm spending wwwaaaayyy too much time here, but I feel like all you guys are next of kin in a strange (but good) sort of way!

Take care all and have a Happy Thanksgiving!! [smiley=beerchug.gif]

P.S. 2lane, be careful riding in the snow! [smiley=nervous.gif]

Twolane, thanks for the comments regarding the ride at Thanksgiving...I too lost a good friend on the eve of Thanksgiving. He wanted me to ride on that nite, however I would not given a number of committments.

Unfortunately, he lost his life that nite due to a drunk driver. The driver was convicted of a lesser charge and has since been released...less than 2 years!!!

BE CAREFUL TO ALL!!!

Getting closer and closer to another Christmas or in the midst of Chanukah for those that ride machines of that stripe. New Years seemingly too soon after that and then the big one (SPRING!!) waiting in the wings.

Wishing everyone a happy holiday and new year. May your chrome stay forever shined, your tires stay perpetually new and only the rubber ever hit the road as we all enjoy the good fortune and friends and loved ones we know and are yet to.

Merry Christmas

You guys all have a great Christmas!

The wife and I are headed to San Diego (heard it was in the 80's yesterday) for some sun and sand and to get out of this miserable fog. Heard on the radio awhile ago that today is the first day of winter and the shortest day of the year and was quite surprised at the first day of winter.

Anyway, you guys have a great holiday.

JC enjoy some of that for me... it was 3 with a wind chill of -15 this morning

happy holidays everyone

My brain or my body just can't comprehend that kind of cold. Hell if I lived back there they'd wake up in the morning and JC would be MIA........until they learned that I caught the first plane to the warm states. [smiley=laugh.gif] For us, Lake Tahoe gets very, very cold.....down around 17 but I stay in my truck where the heater works just fine! LOL

Being a spiritual man JR, I can appreciate your prayer.

I just want to say that I really appreciate the maturity that you bunch of guys (old women? [smiley=nixweiss.gif]) have demonstrated on this site and that you guys and GALS are what makes this site what it is. I know that there are at least a couple of people that hang out on this site due to the maturity, even thow they don't own a CVO and we appreciate you, too!

I also want to thank all of you for your prayers and thoughts after my accident in May and since and I look forward to riding again, with those that I've met from this site. I made a couple really great friends, due to this site.

Thanks to Naitram, the man who made this all possible for all of us.

Finally, I wish and pray for good things for all of you in the new year! Thanks for being here for me, guys! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

JC,

When I first logged in here your accident had already happened. So I've been fortunate enough to have only heard about the good news of your continued recovery (well mostly good news, there was that little boat diversion).

In any case for those of us that that share this particular calendar it's about time for another year to roll in. JC's words can only be echoed, not improved upon. This is a thoroughly enjoyable place to hang out. Thanks gents and and/or ladies (as the case may be).

Happy New Year everyone. I'm going to go start getting wobbly now. May everyone enjoy their festivities and the company of their friends and loved ones with a beverage of choice in one hand, a smile on your face, and whatever else might be in your other hand that won't get you in trouble.

I hope everyone had as nice a New Years Day as I did, and wish all of you a great new year. I think your best wishes and prayers are working. It was 67 degrees and beautiful here in the mountains of NC today. The temperature set a record and I got to put on a bunch of really enjoyable miles on the SEEG, along with the great company of my significant other. [smiley=laugh.gif]

By the way, this is my first bagger, and girl friend is struggling with getting on and off of it. She was used to just throwing her leg over the back of my Wideglide and getting on behind me. The tourpak kind of makes that tough. Any pointers for her? Should she get on the bike first? I taught her today to put her leg over my seat first since its the lowest point, then slide back on the seat and then I get on. Is there a better method for her?

All people in our lives, motorcycling or otherwise have limitations, as we do, and I have found that the maintenance of dignity is important in the maintenance of this relationship. I feel that the stepthrough is the most dignified (in facr exalts the occupier of th b seat to queen. Get on the bike ....put the stand up......level the bike..... from the left side(shifter) of the bike have her step on the foot board or peg with the left foot......leaning toward have her(without damaging the upholstery or paint or chrome) pass her right foot within inches orfractions of where she is to sit, her right foot and place it firmly on the right floorboard or footpeg that is place for her...not your convenience......followed by rapid parking of the derrier then succeeded by the staccato rumbling of the exhaust and you are off. If you want to listen to any grunts or groans you are on the wrong website.

Sorry JCZ, just having a little fun at her expense. I showed her the post. She really was having a little trouble.

Even though we may be out of the holidays, My husband and I are still on leave for one more day. I get to ride the tt cherry seeg that santa brought for me over to the shop for it's first service. 1000 miles in four days, from Christmas to New Years. What a wonderful life it is indeed. We just found this site in the past couple of weeks and have really enjoyed going through it and learning all the tricks you have already trialed over. Thanks so much for the help, comraderie and best wishes. We both wish everyone health and happiness always.

His - 04 SEEG Black and Blue Hers - 05 SEEG Two Tone Cherry

[smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]Yes, we are Very blessed indeed.
