I've seen the pictures, ride a rocket, and if I lived in Montana that bike would have to be called the Vista Cruiser even if it didn't fit on the plate.

Had the rear tire break loose on me in a curve on a mountain pass today. Thankfully it recovered right away. To my own credit I did notice the road was a little dirty and had slowed down. But the bike handled it with aplomb.

In other news, I rearranged my garage to get the Rocket and Reboot in a position that would make it easier to back out and turn around in the mornings. On the way home last night the right highway peg tore a huge gash in the vinyl of the left Tsukayu bag on Reboot. Needless to say I am not happy.

Flat tires, especially brand new flat tires, really suck...



You can't even really see the piece of wire sticking out the center of the photo.
