I rode 50 mile northeast along route 10 with an awesome tailwind. Nothing but truckstops, ghost towns and peripheral farms and ranches.
I rode 50 miles in less than three hours.
I felt like Gods playtoy... and was glad of it...
Until I had to make a turn due south. Then my 40mph tailwind turned into a 40mph cross wind.
I was literally leaning 10-15 degrees into the wind.
At some points I was tacking into it liike a sailboat...

Thatsa hell of a tailwind biker boy!
God bless and keep you safe and well, we are proud of you here at the Huntington VAMC
So Scotty- you gonna name your bike like people name their boats? Someone gave Jeff and I a 14' sunfish sailboat. Neither of us have sailed. We went out like fools on this busy speed boat huge lake... no wind at first. Wind picked up, we flew..but Jeff was on the down side of the sailboat..we couldnt figure out what the drag was...turns out his butt was about 4'' in the water cuz we had him on the wrong side. Shoulda been on the up-side while we were flyin through the water. So... our 14' sunfish boat inhereted the name "Big Ass Dragon" aka Biggass draggin....
It's my professional inspectors opinion that your bike's name should be 'Half Bubble-Off' (half bubble off plumb'!
