Made it home...

Got the bike home with nary a scratch on it or myself! The salesman said he would deliver it if I was uncomfortable with riding it home as I hadn't really ridden a bike for any length of time in over 30 years. But I figured I had to ride it some time, so I kicked it in 1st and hit the highway. It was an experience to say the least...powerful, big and heavy, with 40 degree temps to deal with as well as a 20 mph wind...something that gave me some pause I tell ya'. But in the end, it was a "grinner" and I am still smiling! I have decided that I shall now be referred to as Wood "Big Dog" Mason...
