Good thing I don't have the 'feeling'...

or it might be bruised. ;D

Whichever side one is on is probably the wrong side

What a wonderful vid! I substitute twisty roads for dirt, and only use highways to get to them, but at 66 I am having a great time riding my little Moto!

I showed this to my brother who had stopped riding after going down in the spring. Happy to say he is back on
