I saw a license plate Friday that said ICH THY. Made me think of you!

I am at work. Can't get live video of IMLP...Of course.

Rode the HD yesterday instead of my bike. I now have a helmet and BF has changed my name to Marvin the Martian. Nice. It's really fun.

Gave stinky-dog a haircut.

that was pretty funny! It's so hot here, and he has such long hair. I figured he was suffering. He did suffer through the buzz-cut pretty well, but didn't let me cut his hair as short as I wanted.

Once 2 or 3 inches of hair was gone, he was bouncing around and energetic. Like lambs after they've been sheared.

Now to give him a bath....

what kind of HD?

In Vivid Black. We had to get the 2006 because you can't customize the exhaust according to 2007 EPA changes.

http://tinyurl.com/gt4pb The Marvin Head. (Couldn't afford a Shoei- but like the understated flames of this, anyway, and got to talk to someone who had one before buying it).

Isn't it gorgeous???

I'd tell Queen about it, too, but she's off playing with the Gray Whatles or the Mantas or something...

[chickwhorips]

very nice! i like the flames on the helmet.

my friend had a Dyna low rider in a really cool yellow. was going to buy it from her, but my car died and i had to get a new one of those first.

i've always like this helmet. reminds me of WWII. looks bad @$$.

[Nanci]

Yeah, I like that same helmet- was admiring it on line today. But since I work with pts who have been in helmet-less accidents every day, I am inclined to not want facial fractures or smashed teeth...(It's a very big step for me to even get on a donorcycle- a sign of how much I respect BF's driving).

[Trek420]

chickwhorips "i've always like this.....reminds me of WWII. looks bad @$$."

I've never liked those helmets, as a Jew it's not an aspect of WWII I care to be reminded of thank you very much. I remember being on a drive with my Mom and she was shocked that folks would wear that.

And I can't imagine they protect you, ears, face, it's all exposed.

I think at minimum for some these helmets are a statement "I don't want to wear a helmet so I'll wear the least I can" also (and here I hope we all will take this in the helpfull kind loving spirit supportive spirit that is TE and sing Kumbaya) it says "I don't read history books or care to".

On the other hand, a friend runs this womens bike tour co. It looks fun

I also think of them as "token" helmets-I don't know how much protection you get, or even if it's enough to save you from a head injury, not to mention facial fractures. In Florida it's legal to ride without a helmet. I support that- let the rider decide. They have to carry extra insurance (in FL) to do it. My feelings are- there aren't enough organ donors to go around- if you ride without a helmet- I hope you're an organ donor. Same thing if you don't wear a seat belt, or go on an ATV at all. (Man are those things killers!!!)

The woman who headed up getting legislation passed to make it legal in FL to ride without a helmet is dead, two years later, from a head injury.

Now I have heard people who choose that kind of helmet over my Marvin the Martian helmet say that they want the peripheral vision, and don't want to decrease what they can hear. I'm not driving- I don't have to worry about that.

I am _proud_ of the US involvement in WWII. I guess I don't get the helmet/Nazi connection, though. I just think it's cool looking.

Y'all have to tell me what you think of this ad. What's goin' on over there at Wallingford?

[salsabike]

Wow. Didn't know they sold S&M stuff there.

[KnottedYet]

Personally, I'm quite fond of that picture.....

That was done by Brooks, not Wallingford.

Now if only I could get a copy of the poster. Eh-hem.

my first thought was what's that on her hip?

otherwise i like the picture. very creative, though doesn't bring the eye right to the saddle at first.
