Yeah, you guys are all correct....I did feel competent enough to ride, but the exhaustion was the real factor, as drinking in the heat and sun really takes its toll. I now call her (my bike) the "Beckler Bike", as my neighbor, whose name is Beckler, has an 06 TBA, and would never dream of going over 40 miles one way on his new bike...Me and the wife finally "made up" the next night!!!
