    Any darn excuse....

    I received a new pair of m/c boots tonight via FedEx. I opened them up at about 11:00 pm. Told the family I just had to go out and try them out to see if they would help my feet reach the ground easier. So, from 11:00 - 12:00 I was out "testing" my boots. What a great ride....starry night and a gentle breeze. I just couldn't get enough riding. Oh yeah, the boots are OK.

    I've gone out after the kids went to bed to "check a new setting on the Madstad".... my wife usually just rolls her eyes at me.

    Now for the burning question: How much taller did they make you? I am also height challenged.

    Riding a Goldwing is like opening a can of testosterone.

    About 2"...... Higher heel on the boot plus the sole is thicker.
