The Biker Chick Sarah Rode with, everyone is speculating as to if she is or was FBI etc etc. She has to be some sort of enforcement, do you see the guns / pythons on her? She who shall not be messed with....

[GVnana]

I was thinking CIA/Secret Service. I mean... WOW!

[hattend]

I guess I’m looking elsewhere

You see firearms?

The folks at The Motor Company have got to be thrilled to see the Palins dressed in their gear today.

Alan Mulally PING!

[taildragger]

Ok, I don’t get it, 299 got deleted, what was said that was delete-able...

[RonDog]

Sorry, taildragger.

I have been multi-tasking, and also missed what was in the deleted post. :(

I just assumed that it meant that the Palins were wearing some kind of "Ford" logos at this event...

...perhaps as a sign of their support for the only domestic car company that didn't go bankrupt, and didn't take any bailout money.

Since I share your enthusiasm for seeing Ford CEO Mulally somewhere in the Palin administration, perhaps I read too much into Windflier's post.

What exactly was in that (now-deleted) "Ford-related" post, Windflier?

The CX 500 is one of the most underrated bikes of all times. The bottom end was way overbuilt and could have taken a lot
more displacement with no worry. A liter or more displacement would have made it a water cooled Moto Guzzi clone that would have been an absolute pleasure to ride. But that would have made it a competitor to the Gold wing, wouldn't it?

[CrazyIvan]

Wow! The Palins all look sensational! Even better than last time around.

I want to see them in the White House!!!

They have that “comfortable with themselves” look that people with REAL class have.

On a CX forum that I frequent there is an owner that has fabricated a dual engined CX for the Bonnevile Speed Week.

Its a sweet engine to work on, the bike itself I have pretty much rebuilt totally. My only gripe is I wish it had one more final gear.

[GlockThe Vote]

Great pics. Go Sarah go!

[Twinkie]

Not that I know of; but then I’m just a cream filled snack cake who has no GRAVITAS!

[ScreamingFist]

Crazy Ivan, I saw you ride through Moscow on your R1, very impressive. I’m still trying to guess how you survived...;)

Courage. Even a humble cream filled snack cake can have a moment of greatness...

I don't know what was in post 299. I don't think it was mine.

I mentioned "The Motor Company", which is bikerspeak for the Harley-Davidson motorcycle company. Todd and Sarah were sporting H-D gear today, which had to make the suits at Harley smile.

[Windflier]

Ron, “The Motor Company” is what bikers sometimes call the Harley-Davidson motorcycle company. It goes way back.

Don’t flame me, but does this look at all presidential?

It definately works for me.

[fwdude]

Well, I’m sick of the fake-biker-culture-gone-mainstream fad; it’s juvenile and Jerry Springerish. What happened to the grown-ups in this country?

[RonDog]

Thanks, Windflier.

My mistake. I subconsciously (but INCORRECTLY) added "Ford" to your post.

And, sorry, taildragger.

Perhaps Governor Palin will promote Alan Mulally and Ford at some FUTURE event. :o)

Lighten up, Francis. ;)
