If only I could get an extension cord long enough to take my tv with me on the bike.

i think i hold the record for getting caught in thunderstorms.
in 2004 i got 150 miles from home on back roads and got caught in 5 serious storms.twice the front axle on my 500 magna was under water with no place to pull off road.totally trashed chain and sprockets because water and mud washed chain lube out.
