High Mileage Stuff (No Audi content)
I liked the comment about the Vette with over 100K on it that finally
"became fun to drive".
This summer we stopped in Jackson Hole, Wyo. (incredibly lovely spot
with most interesting history...) and watched the poseurs with
Harleys line up around the town square. Amazing how many Harleys we
saw hile driving through New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming...about
8 of 10 of them with California plates, some even having CHASE
vehicles!!! All the riders were wearing black leather, including
bike chaps....just decked out in "bike chic".
And parked on the swquare in Jackson Hole, in the midst of this
gleaming airbrushed machinery and black leather clothing (much of it
on dentists, etc., I'm sure...) was ONE single-color older Harley
which needed a wash, showed wear on the paint, and had obviously been
ridden hard and long. It wasn't beat, just showed years of use.
Guess which rider I would have been interested in meeting? You got
it.
