I have a '86 Yamaha Radian 600.  Quick nimble but 22 years old.  Prior to owning the Radian I had a '78 Yamaha SR500 thumper which was also very cool.  Anyway, my next bike is going to be a Harley.  I'm done with old red Japanese bikes.  I'm looking at a newer Sportster 1200 or a more seasoned (older, more miles) big V-twin.  What would you choose?  What do you guys ride?  Post a picture, I love looking at bikes.

Is that blood on your knees?

Nope...
Race number.

For each Triathlon, you get "bodymarked" with your race number in big, black marker on both upper arms & both lower thigh / knee areas.

They also mark your age on the back of your calf, so when you blow past a skinny 21 year old, they can see that they just got smoked by a 38 year old, ex-fat guy!

Hi Sonny,

Well, I do actually ride on the road sometime, but often my work on the "bike" consists of...


Home HIIT Bike - Old Tri-bike on RacerMate electromagnetic stand - real shoes on floor

Really wanna see an eccentric mountain bike? Take a look at that one on the wall. Van Halen-esque electrical taped seat, big plastic mud guard, ugly pannier rack on the back, cleat pedals and my own custom made "antlers" - two mountain bike handlebars (one attached to climbing bars on the ends the other), taped with psychodelic roadbike tape.  FUN BIKE!!

Read this to hubby and he wanted you to know he rides a honda 1800, and he loves it.  When cycling he rides a mountain bike and is saving up for a trek, he had a harley but honestly got tired of working on it and $$$$ every time he turned around, he loves the dependable hondas.......over and out guys!!

Used to ride a crotch rocket Yama FJ1100 was built out by Vance adn Hines locally was real fast. It well with me being real stupid. wrecked it twice racing in the mountains. Once the helmet law went into effect I sold it and haven't riddne much in 10 years. I will take my buddie bike out rarely, still w/o a helmet or motorcycle license just to ride, I really miss it.   I have been looking for a great deal on a  used cruiser. On the back burner now with possible self pay for WLS and moving to Colorado next summer. Good news no helmet law in Colorado, Im will ride again. I aslo have and ride very rarely a Specialized mountain bike. a rockhopper that I put some heavy duty parts on to support my sizabe girth. That will be something I enjoy postr-op in Colorado for sure

I have a 99 ultra also known as a geezer glide. Just turned over 80,500 miles. I also have a 1958 Duo-Glide, thus the nickname pan head. It was made the year I was born. Until I bought the ultra in 99 I rode the pan head almost as much as I do the ultra. The ultra has the magic button. The pan head would be hard to kick after sitting all day at work during the winter. i ride all year long, if there is no snow or ice then I ride. I have had the pan head thirty years in October. I have pictures in my profile.  pan head
