Old Harleys, Indians, Popes, Crockers, Hendersons watching the sun rise in the desert, watching the sunsets on Pardington Point down the road from Big Sur, one day road trips that go for 500 miles, good looking intelligent women who enjoy & can handle said road trips, the immense starfields at night in Wyoming, going anywhere on my bike for no good reason, dingy little sluts 'n slobs biker bars with ice cold beer & a killer band or at least a killer jukebox

New Harleys you can't work on without a degree in computer physics, RUB's, posers, instant bikers, people who trailer their bikes to runs that are only a hundred miles from where they live because 100 miles is just too goddamned far too ride for them, pretty custom bikes that cost $40,000.00 that couldn't make it to the same run because they need to be trailered as they're too freaking fragile or impractical to make 5 circuits around the block without a wrench standing by, being called "Bro", helmets, bike riding snobs who won't stop to help folks out when they see them broke down on the side of the road & supposed "bikers" who run screaming for the garage if the see two clouds bump together because it might rain & get them or their toys wet.

Just about any organized professional sport like Football, Baseball, Basketball, Golf or Hockey, I have better things to do with my time & money than to watch overpaid multi-millionaires play stupid games

Restoring antique & classic bikes, restoring WWII aircraft, plotting the downfall of western civilization, playing mumbledypeg with dimwitted quadrupeds, plotting the demise of my siblings & nephew & hoping that it can be done clever enough to throw off any suspicion that it wasn't an accident. (They were shot, stabbed, poisoned & dismembered. Suicide is suspected). Hopefully that's how the police report will read anyway...

My opinion of music is that it's far better in most respects than TV, for one you can take music with you on a good long ride. Whether you ride a full dress bagger with it's own sound system or just a good basic road bike with a
Walkman/Diskman stashed in your jacket, along with some tapes or CD's & a decent set of phones, music just makes the ride all that much better. I have a wide range of musical tastes, from Bluegrass & Zydeco, up to classic &
hard metal rock. Mind you, most times the music that my Pan or Shovel makes for me can be enough for a good ride, but on those really long journeys it's always good to pack tunes along. Hell, you've got to stop for the day's riding at some point & if you camp out like I do then it's good to have something to help you wind down for the evening. Sometimes I'll even take my guitar along & make my own music or if you run into some other riders out there you can entertain yourself & them at the same time.

Eclectic,picky, cynical, sarcastic & slightly eccentric longtime bike tramp, I like to get as much mileage on my bike as possible, I believe that your given word is by far more important than your signature on a piece of paper & I'm somewhat of a practical joker. I've been referred to at times as a truly sick twisted individual (I guess they're just trying to get on my good side) I mean Geez! You get caught one time playing 'Gopher Polo' on your bike & you're branded for life.
I'd rather ride than party although partying has it's place & moments too, nothing like a stage 3 hangover to brighten up your day, eh ? I love a good buzz as long as it doesn't involve attitudes, fights or police presence. I won't play politics with friendships & don't take sides, if you have a problem with someone in the group then you deal with it, don't ask or tell me who I'm going to hang with, besides then all you'll manage to do is to stress me out & ruin my fun,(granted stress is easily cured by perching on my rooftop with an AK-47 & a dozen full clips LMAO).
I'm in search of one good woman that'll walk or ride beside me, I don't seek a woman who'll do everything I say, if I want unquestioning loyalty then I can look to my dog. If she doesn't nag at me then I won't nag at her, I'm perfectly aware of all my faults so I don't need them pointed out to me at every opportunity & won't ask anyone's pardon for them, it's just me.
I have a huge playful streak that comes out at odd time, I also have a romantic streak too, but I don't do walks on the beach, candlelight dinners & running through meadows with abandon.
I'm tactless & blunt, possessing all the finesse of a grenade, so if you really don't want to know what I think on any given subject then don't ask me.I'm not so arrogant as to believe that I'm right all the time & I really do want to know what my lady thinks about things & I will listen to what she's got to say.
So, if you think you might be interested in getting better acquainted then type away & let me know.
Ride easy all........
