Did you know...

Post by GrandpaDenny »

That if you ride for a long time at 120mph (on the speedo, 113 on GPS) your radio antenna might break? CB antenna, too!

Gertrude needs:

1. Radio antenna whip
2. CB antenna bracket

She says it was fun and worth it, and is feeling much better and thanks for letting her run, now get her some new shiny things.
