Screw it? Screw it? Screw what? What does "screw" mean? What is the "it" that we are proposing to screw? What does screwing anything have to do with riding? More importantly, what moron came up with that as an ad? It will offend some, and dumbfound others, but I doubt if it will actually sell any motorcycles. Irritates the heck outa me. Stuff like that for the last 30 years is the main reason I don't want to be part of the Harley "thing".

 

I'm a little edgy tonight. Can you tell?

 

Screw it, I'm gonna go out and ride...my Yamaha and my Honda....fast...and far...and comfortable...and reliable...and generally, I'll look *****in doing it too...but that ain't why I'm doing it...cause I don't give a ......

In the case of Harley, do they really mean "tighten the screws and then ride"?

 

Just a thought!

Well, here in Iowa where we've got 9 months of winter, gray skies, and it gets dark at 4:30 pm....once summer hits, the warm breeze is blowing and your looking out at 10 acres of grass that needs mowing, branches that have blown down all winter, painting the house, and all the other projects that really need to be done in the few short months of summer....I look at my husband and say "Screw it, let's ride".

I apparently say this a lot, as my brother just gave me that same bumper sticker! I cut the harley logo off and it's on my fridge.

I've worked my can off my whole life and since we started riding a few years ago....life's too short...so now we just ride. My whole personality has changed because I don't sweat the little stuff anymore. The grass still needs mowing, the logs still need splitting, but I know I enjoy life a lot more after climbing on my bike for a couple hours and feeling that warm breeze and the sunshine...well, you all know the feeling. So the next time your having a lousy day, screw it, get out there and ride!
