my spousal unit and i were on 1382 in cedar hill waiting to cross over 67. the white 848 was turning northbound onto 67. after my wife said "isn't that the bike you like? that's an ugly bike( sorry b she thinks the red is sexier) and why isn't that guy wearing any gear." my question was why is this guy in a helmet, tshirt, jeans and tennis shoes. i was pretty sure it wasn't bryant but can't be certain because he was wearing the 2007 ducati helmet. at least put on a jacket and gloves whoever you are PLEASE!!

I passed a guys yesterday on 428 on a ZX-14 and of course he was wearing shorts, t-shirt and a helmet, seeing that I just cringe... Not to mention the countless HD guys that were up there in their tank tops and head bands... maybe there is something to those head bands we dont know about??

Rule #1:  Dress for the wreck, not the ride!  [thumbsup]

So somebody is riding around Cedar Hill pretending to be me on a unicorn and the same helmet?

Just a quick note from the road:

Pulled in to someplace for dinner with my u-haul and the S4RS in the truck bed.  Two squids on Gixxers (helmets, shorts, tennis shoes, etc.) went screaming by in the parking lot.  They screeched to a stop and came over for a luxurious gander at my Ducati.

Say what you will about the squids, some of them recognize beauty and greatness when they see it.

yeah that's why i originally thought it was you at first glance. but then my common sense jumped up and said that's not him i doubt he would be out riddin w/o any gear. also he didn't have you skin tone. i saw his arms he was a cross betwwen cory and i. lil pale but not too pale for the sun.

Las Cruces!  A city of greatness.  Wish I'd know you were passing through there.  I know all (or most) of the good places to eat and drink there.  Best mexican food on the planet!  Drive safe!

I saw the weather report for that area today.  Usually it's blazing hot, but Dallas was kicking it's ass this week.  Weird weather.  Hopefully Phoenix isn't too bad.

Not as long as you also have a baseball cap on backwards!
