The other rider headed out, then pulled up on the shoulder briefly. He smiled and said "I just had to tell someone. Just went over the 100,000 mile mark on the clock"......We offered our congrats as he was obviously jazzed. Turns out he was from Canada, his bike was a Victory, looked good like so many H-D Big Twins, sounded great. He'd ridden from Canada to Daytona, was now in Arizona and then heading back home..........bike looked good, sounded good and obviously ran like a top.
Don't like dishing on any bike........this guy's ride was truly very nice, but some of the Victory models I've seen just don't do it for me visually. To each their own...........Ride Safe
