I got a Cub Cadet 50" ZTR lawnmower with a a Kohler Courage 22 engine...........that just so happens to be a V-Twin. Took some practicing and getting used to , but I got it down now. Took me 15 minutes to mow our big a$$ yard, both front and back! I'm liking my Father's Day gift. Got my riding time back.........instead of pushing a lawn mower for 3 hours.

I got a little time to go out and blast around the neighborhood before someone turned on the oven down here.

Truely the best gift was time with my kids , far more valuable than any material object.
We had a wonderful brunch and spent the day laughing and joking.

My Daughter gave me a beautiful picture she had drawn.
My Son gave me 3 Dvd's , Santana , Ben Harper in concert , and the 25th anniversary copy of The Wall

Some friends of ours came by Sunday to look at my Heritage Softail that I've needed to sell since I bought my CVO Roadking last Feb. His wife fell in love with the bike. She bought it for him. Now I'll have some more cash for mods.WooHoo!

Cards, hugs and kisses from our three grandkids. Doesn't get any better than that and I don' t need anything else.....

Cards and a day of golf with my son. Oh and he moved out this week too.

Love him to death, but he's better as a friend than a roommate.

Once you own a Zero Turn you will never go to anything else.... Mine however has a V=Twin HONDA engine..... I Should have op for the Diesel.
Its a gas hog..... Just like filling up your SUV. (14gal tank).

Got to spend breakfast with my middle daughter and her husband and had a very peaceful day... My wife

and I even went for a afternoon ride..

I got a Big Green Egg and a card entitled "what time do we eat". I had looked at them earlier this spring but could not justify the price to myself (had it been chrome and of benefit to my bike......

). Seasoned and tried it out last night, everyone was happy.

All four kids and four grand kids came over for a swim.
Do you need more?
Oh and a shirt

Nope! No Chrome, but I can fix that!

That thing is KEWL. I did a zero turn from a dead stop and it spun so fast it almost slung my fat ass off the damn thing. Got the whole yard done quick, fast and in a hurry. I'm lovin' it.......even without the chrome.

Concur! Don't know how I've lived this long without one. Shawn (Scooterhair) is the ZTR Meister! He has a HUGE Grasshopper ZTR with a diesel and a bagging unit. I was very impressed. Would cut my yard in about 5 minutes. Too big of a machine for me, but it was awesome. Of course, he has this mondo, killer, mutant, ninja, death yard from hell. If he didn't have the Grasshopper, he'd spend every waking hour mowing his lawn with my puny little Cub Cadet!

You may not need any chrome on it but it sounds like it might not hurt wearing your helmet with the Hans devise along with a 5 point seat belt.

Concur. That thing has the capability to cause great bodily harm..............but it sure is fun. Dare I say it: I can't wait to mow the grass this weekend.
