Might try the B trails with a couple of other rigs in support of each other plus recovery gear when we got stuck!

The Sportster rider said it was great for going slow and climbing hills with all that low end torque. Never hesitate at the opportunity to spank the monkey, you might like it. <br />Troubadourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10567767701065756330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348278507505143679.post-14165436740306265802017-06-12T05:03:30.313-07:002017-06-12T05:03:30.313-07:00Thanks.

I came home and our latest issue of Road Runner magazine featured their Shamrock Tour in that very same area. We'll definitely be going back on our own.<br /><br />C'mon Sonja, you're almost there with your Sportster and scrambler seat.
