I went on a nice ride yesterday with my brothers. We spent most of the day riding through the back roads of South West New Hampshire. It was a beautiful day and we found some nice twisty country roads to cruise. On the way back we stopped at a Dunkin Donuts for a coffee. We have a habit of doing that just to wind down and recap the day. We pull into the parking lot and parked the bikes facing out. First thing ya know here comes a guy and girl over to look at the bikes. He's talking up a storm to my brothers about their Harley's and how his is in the shop getting a custom paint job. He then switches his attention to the Triumph. He says "Triumph's making a nice comeback, They'll even let you in if you have a Triumph"  My brothers and I looked at him and then he said " Yup, you have to have a BSA or Triumph. They're the only other bikes besides Harley" I didn't say anything I just kinda nodded. After he left I looked at Rick and said "let you in where?" Rick said "Who knows, maybe the Hells Angels"  We're still not sure what this guy was talking about.

It's a trick Ron don't go in. The next thing you know there are monkeys on your back, pink elephants to dance with, and things in your bum.

If only I knew which "in" he was talking about, I'd stay the heck out. Especially if this guy and his old lady were there  .

Ever take Rt 10 north from Keene?
Maybe by "In" he meant the Verizon cell phone thing.

I've never taken Route 10. So many rides, so little time.

Those kind of folks, you just smile at and say, "ride safe", walking away quickly.

HD are making women now??? Have they got V twins too? Think I'll wait for a Triumph woman, they're more likely to have parallel twins... or even better, triples in line!

The word women and twins or worse triples!!!!! in the same sentence scares me....which reminds me I really do need to schedule that appointment with the urologist!

Harley has made a nice comeback after that AMF debacle too. You should have let him know that..

Not the Rebel Knights MC in Chicago. Must be a V-Twin non-metric. Not too worried about it.
