My wife and I went for a day ride and found this sign. Cracked me up. The road was a blast 70 miles of nothing but twisties. Just awesome.

Savannah, GA -Year round riding!! Yay!

Where, pray tell, is that?

I got to take the Vivi out on Road America for 2 laps.... It was something like that.... hehe.  I had the Vivi up to 82 in 3rd gear. A few more laps, I could've had the lead. I just know it!!!

If you're ever in Oregon this is 224 from Detroit to Estacada. Beautiful ride.

Yo Duckman,

I count 14 rounds on target in the apex of an "80 mph" sweeper; are you sure this is such a great place to stop for a photo op?

Just as a wild guess I'd say that the sign is supposed to read "30" and someone modified it a tad.

HA, not worried those rednecks don't come out until after dark. From the looks of their work I know I'm a better shot. Have to be that's what I do for a living.

nice.... but you gotta take that sticker off your console area. (right above the seat). Hair dry will loosen it up ...

...........and peanut butter (creamy) will remove the glue residue without hurting the finish.

Yeah, I know I need to remove the sticker, just been too busy riding the thing. I took the emblems off my Hammer. Didn't use the peanut butter idea. Thats a new one I have never heard of.

Really, the peanut butter works, that's how I removed the adhesive left on the access panel after I pulled the decal on my Vision. It may seem a little backwoods; but hey, sometimes ma nature beats technology.

The adhesives on the decals are acrylic (mandated since about 1990).
