What To Do?

Recommended Posts

What to do?  My wife is complaining because I haven't worn out the stock tires yet.  I've been trying, I really have, but things haven't worked out.  Should I send her to a therapist?  Larz, I was there for you when you were confused.  How about so help.

Canyon carving with a passenger wears down the rear tire quite quickly! 🤪

There is that.  There are seven miles of canyon road up close to Amarillo.

Palo Duro?   What spectacular scenery, right in the  middle of, well... much less spectacular scenery.

You could turn around and ride those 7 miles back and forth a few dozen times to wear out the stock tires, though it would be much more enjoyable with the new tires.  I didn't like the stock Dunlops.

"Four Up" - A Texas colloquial expression used to describe a situation that has gone terribly awry...

No, actually the road that runs east just north of South Plains.  The last seven miles before it tees with 1051 is nice road.  1051 runs north to Quitaque.  You would not believe the pressure Palo Duro gets on the weekend.  FM689

That’s such an awesome looking bike @texscottyd, but would look just perfect with a beak.

Holey crap, you have taught an armadillo how to act like a possum.  Can you teach my beagle to respect me even if he is a lot smarter.

Pat, you have not met my wife and I'm assuming you think she is not very smart since has been married to me for 36 years, but I assure you she is way smarter than that.  LOL!
