W I  N   D   Y    ! Predicted gusts to 65mph, sustained winds from 35 to 45mph. In the early morning I went to town on Rex to photograph an Art-Car parade. It was a bit blustery but manageable. After the parade was over I pointed Rex north towards Roz, our RV. There is a canyon that we pass through and I want to say WOW, (expletive deleted), WOW! The gusty winds there were switching directions instantly and randomly. Now this old biker has some miles in the saddle but this was, to greatly understate, a bit exciting. The point that scared me was after coming out of a sweeping turn, with Rex straight and verticle, running 65mph, we suddenly moved about a foot to the left. I do not mean we were pushed to the left with a hard gust, I mean the bike got real light and instantly was relocated. It felt as if we were...    less

    A few weeks back I was riding the Twisted Sisters with several members of our HOG Chapter.  We'd just left the Bent Rim Grill and were heading out of Leaky, TX on FM337...when a javelina (wild pig) started running across the road.  I tried to stlow down enough to miss it but even after locking the brakes the collision was unavaoidable.  The was by far the biggest "oh, shit" moment I've experienced.  I did a full ride report at: www.curtcarter.com/2014/01/when-harley-and-javelina-collide.html. />
