| At BBQ stop Lady: what does that say on the trunk? Me: Victory Lady: Is that made by Honda or Harley? Man: That is nice, I've seen those Victorys before, what is it? Me: The Vision Man: I've got a Harley. It's constantly eating tires. I've put three rears on in 26,000 miles since '06. Me: Oh yeah, I put one about every 12,000 to 15,000 and I've 66,000 on it since '07. Man: How many miles? Me: 66,000 Man: I thought I ran with the big dogs with 26,000 miles...[shakes head] At a mountain biker leather shop, definitely for the Harley crowd. Go in to check out the shop, small, looks like he does mostly leather repair. Exchange some small talk and walk out. Man and his OL comes out as well, and Harley to the bone. Man: [looking at the Vision in bewilderment] Does that have reverse? Me: Don't need it, I know how to park. Man: [just smiles with a look of a loss for words] I was on my way to a homecoming for an old family friend in Luray and met up with some folks that I grew up with that were adults when I was a child. Found out a few of them rode, but never knew. I figured I'd be out of place riding since it was a very conservative crowd. I got a lot of compliments on my bike to include my mom. Dad on the other hand.... Dad: [talking about the Vision to a family friend] That's Batman's old bike, he let Chris have it when he got his new one. In a restaruant, parked where I could see it. Two heavy set guys were leaving after eating. After about 20 minutes they were still standing by the Vision talking about it. Despite the fact I went to Luray to lay a very important person in my life to rest and to comfort her daughter and family, the day was picture perfect. I rode up RT 231 which has some of the most breath-taking of my beloved commonwealth, especially as I approached the mountains. The weather was perfect and it was an excellent day to reflect on life in general. As I approach the mountain on RT 211, I encountered the sign below. I smiled as I knew I would be making the E3 sing my favorite song as I caressed the Vision up the mountain side. I hope everyone has a great summer and keep the shiny side up. Share your signs that make you smile. Edited by varyder 2010-04-16 9:41 PM (crash_area.jpg) Attachments ----------------  crash_area.jpg (50KB - 3 downloads) | |||

Great comments, Chris! Remind me of how my "SPCSHP" got it's name: A Harley guy yells at me outside a biker bar "HEY - IS THAT THERE THING A MOTORCYCLE OR A SPACESHIP???" I yell back: "I DON'T KNOW !!! HAVEN'T MADE UP MY MIND YET ! " - Well - I decided. SPCSHP it is !!! Here is one of my favorite Signs on one of my secret bike roads:

| Ploz58 - 2010-04-16 10:52 PM My vv has a transformer badge on the back and have people say hey it's a transformer wonder what it turns into! Part of me things Megan fox!!! The other is a big car cruncher that eats cars that get in the way!! I've had many thumbs up and had a couple of people follow me into service stations I liked the batman line Hey Mate, I guess you are like rest of us in that we all wished we could get a bike like Batman when we were kids. I'd say the Harley guy was just another jealous rider that didn't have the --lls get a "Bat-Bike". ;-) It's funny how so many riders like to brag about how unique there bike is, until a Vision pulls up next to them, and then they launch into how it's too far out for them.  Ride safe! | |||

Amazing how often the "Jetson" tag comes up. A couple in a pickup truck pulled up next to me at a light with big smiles on their faces. "Love your bike! Looks like a Jetson bike or something out of the future! How does it ride?" My response; "Exactly like it looks! Out of the future!" They both had puzzled looks on their faces as the light changed and I rode off. | |||

Old guy yesterday looks at the SPCSHP and says "Where do you keep the TV Set ? " - he then proceeds to tell me about when he used to race Nortons 'back in the day'. He was a bit shocked when he heard that racing Nortons of his day would not keep up with my Vision. He walked away, crying. Mean S.O.B. I am..... Here is one of my favorite places to visit in BC
