Ride Safe

Some of you know Olbill when he posts on here. I got a call from Bill and he is in a hospital in Winslow AZ. He got really ill coming back up with a friend of ours from New Mexico. He is in not so good shape.
I'm going to take my Dodge truck and hook up my trailer and go get him and his bike. It's about a 1400 mile trip there and should take me a couple of days to get there. Stay overnight and then load his bike up and pack him in the back seat. Got a friend Loren who said he will go with me to help with the driving. Sure do appreciate that.
He was thinking of riding it back home once the hospital releases him but hospital, his wife and myself said no. No big airport where he is at and not a real close Dealer. Plus the temps are very hot there and up through Utah, he would get sick...

bought a H-D 2013 Sportster 2 weeks ago, have not been able to ride but did turn it on few times, no problems. Finally tried to take a ride and the Oil light remains lit and engine sputtered. Turned it off right away, now wont start. Any Suggestions?

Of course will be calling Harley but if its something minor I can fix, id rather do that first.
Thanks

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind-of tired.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes...

Days after Hitler’s suicide a group of American soldiers, French prisoners, and, yes, German soldiers defended an Austrian castle against an SS division—the only time Germans and Allies fought together in World War II. Andrew Roberts on a story so wild that it has to be made into a movie.

The most extraordinary things about this truly incredible tale of World War II are that it hasn’t been told before in English, and that it hasn’t already been made into a blockbuster Hollywood movie. Here are the basic facts: on 5 May 1945—five days after Hitler’s suicide—three Sherman tanks from the 23rd Tank Battalion of the U.S. 12th Armored Division under the command of Capt. John C. ‘Jack’ Lee Jr., liberated an Austrian castle called Schloss Itter in the Tyrol, a special prison that housed various...
