    Pathfinder's 100,000 (Cert.) Miles in 1 Year Attempt

    Hi Tony You keep riding and we will hook up on a weekend soon and burn some gas hauling *** to Texas and back. When we do you will need good tires and brakes are not that important as I do not slow down much.

    Pathfinder's 100,000 (Cert.) Miles in 1 Year Attempt

    Tony, I am not sure as I am starting a new contract soon and the house in North Carolina will be done soon and I need to be there some over the next month. We will find a good time and go ride a few BBG's together.
