What a long weekend and it turned out very nice for riding the trike, we put a lot of miles on it. I think I mentioned that we had gel inlays sewn into the seat of the trike, mine is very comfortable now, but Bill says his feels the same as before which is weird because his is double. We had to use the sheep skin on his seat  yesterday so his tale bone wouldn’t hurt so bad. He was going to buy those gel pads that you just lay on your seats to relieve pressure points until we saw Mike at this one motorcycle event we stopped at.

We watched Mike do it right on the spot and it only took about 30 minutes to take the seat apart and insert the gel. This guy travels to a lot of motorcycle events all over and I took one of his cards so I could check out his web site which is Real Deal Customs. I told him I’d leave a comment about how well I liked it, which I really do, but I don’t want to leave a negative comment about Bill’s part till we get it looked at. We might have to take a ride down to Cecil County in Maryland to see if there’s something Mike can do.

It would be a nice ride and if we take I-83 the Google map says we’ll get there in an hour and 45 minutes, but we’ll take the GPS just encase we get lost. We’ve been known to ride around in circles and we’re both good at getting lost so that Gps really comes in handy for us. We need to get a mount for the motorcycle though because I don’t want to hold it all the way down. I was so happy that Bill was able to come up with another way to mount my passenger arm rests on the trike now I feel like I could ride for hours.

What more could an old broad ask for, gel for her butt, all kicked back with her arm rests which has a cup holder for her water and the man she loves cruising along enjoying God’s country, almost heaven. He jokingly said he’d strap a DVD player to his helmet so I can watch movies on those long trips, I prefer looking at scenery though so that’s out. Seriously though I’m quite happy with this setup and I feel more secure as I get older riding on this trike instead of the Harley Softail we use to have or the Harley Dresser we traded in.
