Have you ever felt torn between what you have to do and what you want to do. Yesterday I finally got my Harley out of the shop and was able to bring it home just before five pm on Friday. I have not had a chance to ride since the beginning of last fall on a beautiful traditional ride to Casaday, Ks. There were more than six of us riding down the highway when for no particular reason my drive train failed on me about 10 short of making it to our destination. We all stopped to see if it was something simple to fix but it just would not go anywhere very far as the clutch plates and the transmission both disintegrated inside the primary case. So I called my wife to get my truck and come get me on what was supposed to be a relaxing day riding along the scenic highway. About an hour and a half went by before the guys came back from Casaday and my wife showed up with my truck. It was a warm day sitting there in the sun on my motorcycle waving at all the bikes that went by. Yeah, that day fell off a cliff as far as I am concerned but it sure felt good to ride again yesterday. As soon as I get the other homework and chores done I am planning on going again today, I hope.
