My new work ride from Thursday morning.

Last day of school bus driving is Wednesday.

From my front bedroom window

Salon slide out deployed. That sounds pretty fancy  :cooldude:

Obviously, I lead a sheltered life, I had never heard of a Grit Chip so, I turned to Google.

Here's what I got.

Sure hope this works out for ya, I really do but, I gotta tell ya, I never have liked grits.  ;)

Nice ride though.  Where does the Valkyrie ride?

The four flavors of Grit Chips taste pretty good (HEY what the heck else did you expect!!!  :D )

The Valkyrie I no longer have would have to stay at home. The ST1300 will have to stay at home.

Once on site I'm going to as busy as a one armed, one legged wall paper hanger with a leaky bucket.

Guy on a H-D taking a corner whilst he approached me nearly twisted his head off trying to look at the monster.

I think the homeowner's association wants you to park that thing in the garage!

No HOA. I would never live where there was one.

Now it's outside my bosses house for a coupla days before we head to the race track Thursday.When it's not on the road it's going to be stored at a storage place I found that can accomodate it.

I'm the only house on my side of the very short cul de sac.

I'm hoping the schedule for the future is going to be pretty busy keeping S.S Grit Chips on the raod earning it's keep.

You may be a redneck if . . . . . . . . .

You drive around a big bus advertising grit chips with Foxworthy's face plastered all over it.


Just kidding,  best of luck on your new job and hope it works out for you.   :cooldude:

Hey Brit,
You can bring that buggy by my house any time you want.  That would drive my more liberal neighbors nuts.  Foxworthy is real American humor.

What is that periscope looking thing, front top? I have seen the camera at the back. Is it a fuel scope for on-the-go fueling?

Remote conrtolled searchlight. Seriously  :cooldude:

Or it could be a fuel hose dock for connecting with a low flying C130 tanker on straight stretches of interstate.  :D

6 to 8 mpg on the highway which is where it's going to be most of the time. 100 gallon tank.

One beer a week. 52 weeks a year. There's a lot of different beers out there.

Make sure it is just the one my friend.

good on you, Britman
hope you get to see all of this wondeful country.
No inside pics? Classified info, right?

I may have had grit chips a few years ago-let them go to long in the pan once when making fried grits.

And a discussion on how to prepare grits would spin off into something that looks like a "which oil do you use" thread.
Nonetheless, if you don't put sugar and butter on 'em, you're doing it wrong  :cooldude:

Was at a seafood restaurant and the owner had fried some grit patties up when he had some excess grits from breakfast.  Not too bad actually.

Is that thing new?   If so, why's the trailer ball all rusty??  You need to bling it out with a nice chrome ball.
