Never in a Million years list

1. Parking my bike at the airport and then getting on a plane

2. Watching Keeping up with the Kardashians in bed with my ex wife

3. Voting ANC.

It's more of a catch all I don't want my life to like be like that again than an actual scenario. But you get the picture.

 

But getting back to the question. Bike at the airport? No fkn way. The only time I let something with 2 wheels out of my sight is when it's behind a locked garage door bolted to the floor.

You okes think those security guards are there to protect your stuff hey? Did I ever tell you guys about the time the security guard was holding his torch for the oke breaking into my nieces car?

 

Just take an Uber Hairy.

So watching anything else is ok then? ????

Okay, so I suggested that @Hairy call parking management because I know that they have/had secure parking.

Trust me, it’s secure parking - maybe no longer at CTIA - but they did have. I’d never in a million years park my bike in the public parking and get on a plane! If this was the only parking option, I’d get an Uber...

You guys are assuming anyone would want to steal a Harley though....... Hairy is safe I reckon, maybe add tassles for even more cringe factor.

P.S: all of the above is in Comic Sans.

I've been a bit slack with the updates of late, so here's a few pics to keep the thread going.  As is always the case, I'm waiting for one small part before I can really get the build back on track.  It's at the Chrome Platers - so maybe this weekend I can really get going!

Well I am in Windhoek now, and the bike is sleeping at the airport.....so hoping for the best.

Have to say early morning start on the bike with your kit strapped to the sissy bar and a open road in front of you is appealing..... Would have been great to keep riding to wherever and spending a few nights out like this.

All the way to Windhoek, for example

The only way a Harley is making it all the way to Windhoek is on a trailer.

Half of the adventure is breaking down in the middle of nowhere and trying to figure out how to sort it out 

 

[RoddieJ]

My most memorable cycle ride was a trip from Hotazel to CT! On road bikes! And my biggest disappointment on that tour, was asking: “Was that really Chapman’s Peak?!”

So Ja... Maybe I also have high expectations of my Harley... but I really, really enjoy it...! ????

Popular perception, although incorrect.
