Title: On the road again!!
Post by DocNeedles on 03/11/11 at 12:30:27

Hi All,
I have been a bit reticent about putting in my feedback since I'm now riding a Shadow, but decided to make contact.  I was in Mexico about a week ago and relaxing in the warmth seeing all of the bikes go by had a disconnect and thought, gee I bet it is warm and rideable weather in BC and got home to snow on the roads!!  But a week later the bike started and out on the road for short rides and then got my bike insured.  Riding is almost as good as relaxing in the warmth of Mexico.
Cheers to you all,
DocNeedles

Ya, the Shadow definitely doesn't have the punch of the Savage, but my wife prefers riding on the back of the Shadow so her nose on her open face helmet doesn't bump against the back of my helmet.

Mexico was quite calm and relaxed although I am aware of what was happening in other places.  Got my teeth fixed cheaper than at home and lovely to feel the warmth and to be able to swim.  Did see a live sea snake on the beach tho.

Maybe something he had to swallow real quick at the airport to hide from authority figures?

Flew into Puerto Vallarta and then took a bus to Melaque and Barra de Navidaad.
