Those grey beards of Sturgis - an actual news article from a genuine reporter!

[cowpuc]

Picked up this paper while out in Sturgis for the rally a few days ago.. Found it pretty interesting and thought a few of you may too.. Like most of you, I vividly remember the hanging and burning of the metrics out there on main street in days past,,, I also remember the coning off at exits 30 and 32 on the ickspressway with bikes backed up over a mile just waiting to get into town (being familiar with those back roads sure came in handy back in the days of yesteryear) - people camping along the highway and all that... Times have certainly changed and this article brings up some interesting discussion of when/how the slow down that has been happening will end..

It would interesting to hear some of your thoughts on why things are slowing down, both in the rally attendance but even more so, in the industry itself.. Anyway,,, here's the article:

I use to run around outside with no shirt all the time when I was younger. Now I battle skin cancer on my face and arms, so shoot I wear them arm sleeve things now if not a long sleeve shirt if out in sun much. I don't think about it much till the Doc makes me do the treatment thing for it. Sucks sometimes. I keep trying to figure out how a guy that worked outside most of his military career on grave shift get skin cancer. :confused24: Beats me. Oh well it don't keep me from doin what I like.
