After working a Ossining earth day fair with Bonnie yesterday and planting a few hundred plants I started under lights in the house I was more than ready for a ride today

Sunny, mild breeze perfect for a ride up to Perkins

At the top I saw two Indians One was Dominicks 2016 heritage totally customized Vance & Hines pipes took out cat conv and baffles and reinstalled them so it sounds raspy, shark tips, customized one of a kind hand protectors of brown leather with indian badges,  all fringework is custom, customized bags, trunk bags and radio, led lights and get this

A stick shift !  You can use regular or the stick shift like a forward control on the valk !

I'm having trouble getting the size down to post so I asked smokinjoe if he could post the pic I sent him

Anyone else wanna give me their email I will try to forward the pic

The 2nd indian is a roadmaster> almost 1000 lbs  The heritage is about 830lbs and Dominick was on the way to Myrtle beach with his friend to try to win best in show again.  His bikes have been in motorcycle magazines before

Then I cruised south on the Palisades to the New City Deli for corned beef hot pastrami sandwich with side of pickled beets and a potato pancake and black cherry soda.   Had a very nice trip across the river on the TZ traffic was light, averaged 80 on the bridge enjoying the views of the new bridge under construction then no traffic on the Saw Mill north on the way home. 

I got home around 3 and then started working on a strawberry tower for Bonnie   I got a used pallet from a local store, cut some 18" pine board pieces and nailed in place to make the bases for the plants and staple gunned some landscape fabric to the back to hold the soil in place.   Will post pics next week when it is full of strawberries  It will have 10  separate areas for strawberries each 18 wide by 4 deep by 4" height for soil.

Is it the old foot clutch hand shift? Or this ridiculous "lets move the clutch" stupidity...
