Our bunch rode south around here, and ended up in Jefferson. We had a Gal Biker with us, and she can ride. Her Husband rode his and she rode hers. She has said, ''it makes her nervous to ride behind someone''--- so one day he told her,‘well hail’ get your own Bike, and, she did,.....hehe There's always a lot of Motorylcles gathered at Jefferson Texas. Tha' liltte town is Biker Friendly. There were 9 of us, had a good ride, in some nice east Texas, warm weather..... Saw something there I'd never seen before. First, It's fairly common to stand around there outside of Auntie Skinnerds famous Bike eatery/bar. Look at the different MotorCycles, and bull shit, and so 4th. We saw a ''nickel plated'' Shotgun, neatly strapped on the right side of a bad looking Harley. The Shiny Nickel barrels blended in well with the chromine. We could tell he took pride in the way he fabricated the straps and braces, to hold the weapon. The Rider wasnt around for us to make comments about such a sight to see. He probably was in Aunties's place. The ShotGun, had a short stock, but the barrels looked the normal length. That was amazing to us. Anyone ever seen somehting similar? Not counting; in the Movies.....hehe Is that LegaL??

LOL) =====Well, Louie the Great is known to be a smart relic oneLinerHe's TxMotos best, even better than Top-Poster Ed. LOL. You might should, be careful, what you put on this highly intelligent little Texas Group of AH's. yeeha....... So, what do ‘you’ think about the ''ShotGun'' holstered on the Harley, huh? over???? LOL) I thought that was worthy of a comment or two. However it could be, and often is, that I am the only one who hasn't seen ShotGuns on Motorcycles. It could be very common, and I am fundamentally ignorant of it...hehehehhe MrJayT.
I'm not sure, but are you just posting the same ride report over and over? It seems you've done Texarkana to Jefferson so many times that it'd be about as exciting as me riding from my driveway, down the street and back again... Tell me that at the least you're riding with different people?
Or at least give it some literary style: "It was a dark and stormy night....lightning cracked across the sky! .I rode from my driveway, down the street and back again."
Wakko comments: ''It's only legal on a Harley if it's chromed. ==That's exactly what my friend ''Mule'', said. hehe..........MrJayt.
different people? and stormy night....lightning cracked across the sky! .I rode from my driveway, down the street and back again."---- ===Well ya'll, I think every rider has their favorite ''Rides'' that they enjoy in their particular locale. I often read on here, ya'll mentioning ''Pie at Hico'', the "Burgers Bars''( cant' recall the names), the different short rides around your Dallas metro area.. -Guys, there's more than one way to take off from my driveway, and ride a good bit, and eventually end up in Jefferson, Texas. It can be a 130 mile ride, or it can be a 200 miler. Woooo'me they make some good Burgers, and have some tasty pies at Auntie Skinnerds, ask Big Ed, he knows. We're lucky, that we have numerous friends to ride with, around here. Been riding with some of them, for years.... ===MrJayT==
Brian wonders this, and comments:''I'm not sure, but are you just posting the same ride report over and over?

Tell me that at the least you're riding with different people?--BrianWalker- ====It's pretty much the same Gang, some times a coupla riders, sometimes 5 or 6 riders. -Say Brian, it seems you ride mostly Solo. Whats with that? Not that there's anything wrong with that. Honey and I ride often by ourselves. But atleast I have her with me...Just an observation. No big deal. =MrJayT=
He dont always go solo but he almost always ends up solo. That bike of his always wants to be way out front even if it doesnt know where to go. The group will turn off so he ends up solo. He isnt solo for long because the law spots him soon and gives him plenty of company.....LOL. Redshad
Keep on "keeping on", Bjay.. You are right, there are many ways to get to Jefferson from Texarkana, and vice versa.. No matter who you are riding with each route you take can be different and not routine.. Back to the priorities, however.. we've got to make the first opportunity to have that talk about your "position" of Ratings Monitor on this newsgroup.. You'll either have to learn to delegate to BiffB or some other qualified participant, or you will have to tighten up on your schedule to fit the position.. Now that the air is cleared on that point, I remind you that I am so looking forward to Big Ed and me riding over to join up with you and partake in eating some of those most excellent hot links and beans.. The time is getting closer.. How 'bout it ? Bill Walker
==much obliged my Friend, for the gentle comments.....hehehe Say Bill, what is your thoughts on seeing a goodlooking nickel plated double barrel shotgun, strapped to a Harley, and done with expertise, so as to blend in with all the other custom additions. You been around the block as much, or more than anyone on this fine group, have you ever seen anything like that......over.......Mr>JayT=

But then, I have seen some of my old riding partners that won't leave home without strapping on some kind of pistol or something.. I used to be bad about carrying a little boot gun whenever I mounted up.. Guess I kinda grew out of that little habit, when I realized, there were few times when killing somebody was worth it.. hehehe.. hell.. as tough as I've always been, I could take on two or three of the tough guys and the worst case would be for me to take an ass whooping.. I quit carrying guns, a long time ago, and never missed it.. Ask old Dan Beasley.. I think he was probably the last man to hang an bad asswhoopin' on me, single handedly.. Ain't that a hoot ? Bill Walker
==that explains why his Ride Report Posts, often insenuates he rode a 'Solo' ride, huh? I git' her. <g> Mr.JayTFuss>
WTF? I guess not being able to keep up has it's advantages, huh? BTW, having a run-in with the law has it's advantages too. Not only do I have one more excuse to go back and ride the cool roads, but I can also teach a stupid ass cop a little something about the 5th Amendment...
I ride "solo" because I'm more comfortable not having to be concerned with whether others are enjoying the ride....
Brian answers: ''because I'm more >comfortable not having to be concerned >with whether others are enjoying the >ride.... BrianWalker) ===Like I said, nothing wrong with that, however, I feel lucky that we have a local gang to ride with....and it is nice that most ride with twoUps.....Although there are times, we like to ride by our selves, so thereforereason, we can turn any direction we want to, when we want to. stop when & where we want to, ride slow or fast when we want to...(etc)...there's advantages both ways...... I hear ya'......MrJayT-=
