Got home late Wednesday night from a Mn trip. I have been out riding ever since. I can tell you one thing, I was not happy getting snowed in while in Mn
Iam strongly thinking of trading my 17 in on a Billiard Teal Freewheeler

Got out for a few hours on a great almost 80 degree day.
Although it's been about a week I installed HD's Airwing Luggage Rack. Not that I carry any luggage, my long trip days are over, but it gave me the ability to put on Custom Dynamics Airwing LED strip so I could light the back up a tad more.
Today Sam the UPS man delivered a Custom Dynamics ProBeam LED headlight that I'll install sometime between tomorrow and the weekend. That'll give me C.D. LED's all around, I've already got their taillights and I swapped the ProBeam front turn signals off of my Low Rider when I traded it in for the trike. That is one great company, excellent products and customer service.

Today, I gave Kim's Freewheeler a wash and polish today after winter hibernation. Installed the visor style trim on the headlight and turn signals this morning. Took a short video before setting out for a short ride.

Replaced rear tires with Goodyear Comfortreds. Original tires had 37,000 miles and still could have gone several thousand more miles but were 7 years old so replaced them.
Also checked drive belt for tension and looked for any damage/wear. Still looks good. I like to check it about once a month.

I am sad to report that due to ongoing health issues, I am selling my 2017 vivid black Freewheeler. I won't get into the health issues, but they are getting worse, not better.
I tried to sell it outright to 2 local HD dealerships & did not get an offer I considered fair. I contacted my most awesome 2nd son in Durango, Colorado who owns the Million Dollar Highway Saloon in the same parking lot with Durango Harley Davidson. He is good friend with the owner & contacted him about my trike & he was looking at buying 50 used bikes/trikes for the upcoming riding season. After talking with him & sending a few picks, he made an offer over the phone and is getting it shipped from STL to Durango by HaulBikes.
I drop it off Tuesday at Doc's HD & the shipping company will take it from there. We have done the paperwork via Next day Air
I will get 1 final, farewell ride in Tuesday morning, 4/27/21 on what is forecast to be a beautiful 80 degree day. It is breaking my heart to part with it, but I must do it now & the time is right. I just bought a new 2021 car & must be happy with it for now.
To let you know how cheap I am, I had just filled the FW up & I siphoned 5 gallons of gas out and put ir in my new car.
For now, here is my only vehicle, a 2021 Toyota Corolla Hatchback.
