I am Yoda!
Sorry I have not been posting very much lately, we have been riding more than writing this season. I have also been taken over by the force and have taken on the persona of the master jedi… Yoda!
May the Force be with you!

101 Things You Know About Me
Writing a bizarre list of 101 cute but quirky things about yourself has been all the rage lately (mostly with the lady bloggers). These lists have proven to be quite entertaining so I thought I should make a list. I had a small problem with my list; everything I thought of putting on my list wasn’t a secret. For the most part I blabbed about everything right here on my blog in the past 12 months. Then it hit me… I can make my list another official Road Captain USA contest!
Here is a list of 20 things about me, sorry it’s not 101.
Can you fill in the blanks on the first 18?
The first person with the correct 18 answers will win a FREE pair of Irwin Vise-Grip 6″ 150mm Bent Nose Pliers part# 2078226. They were sent to me by Irwin for promoting their Vise Grip Essay contest back in September. Their marketing people at MS&L sent me a box of 20 different vise-grips. They make great tools! I gave a bunch away as prizes at our HOG meeting earlier this month but I saved this pair of bent needle nose pliers for my readers.
You might have to hit the Road Captain USA archives to find the answers. At some point if no one gets a perfect score I will award the prize to the person who came the closest.

A Little Joke
This is not very useful motorcycle information, but it is a funny little ha ha. Hope you like it.
A woman made the following entry in her private blog:
Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn’t flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn’t say much. I asked him what was wrong. He said, “Nothing”. I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said he wasn’t upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it.
On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can’t explain his behavior. I don’t know why he didn’t say “I love you, too.” When we got home I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent.
Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. To my surprise, he responded to my caress, and we made love. But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep - I cried. I don’t know what to do. I’m almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster.

My Harley wouldn’t start today, but at least I got a little sex.
A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to Claymont, DE
I promised my blood brother Gordy that I would ride with him in the annual Claymont Christmas Parade. So it didn’t matter that it was 28 degrees out this morning, I was going riding! Besides, I was anxious to try out the new full face modular helmet that Riders Discount sent me.
I showed up on time at the Boston Market and met up with five other motorcyclists. None of them were from HOG but I just figured no one from our chapter showed up due to the temperature or because of the rumor that Gordy was in Spain. The other five motorcyclists and two passengers were very cool and we had a great ride up to Penns Grove, New Jersey where we met up with approx two hundred other bikers for a police escorted Toy Run.
It was The Little Smile For Christmas Toy Run which is an annual event which I think is organized by the Penns Grove VFW. The ride was a police escorted parade from New Jersey to the AI Dupont Childrens Hospital here in Wilmington, Delaware. Santa Clause rode bitch on the lead bike which may have been a police bike. They were lead by three sheriff cruisers down Interstate 95 and across the Delaware Memorial Bridge. State troopers blocked exits and traffic. The Delaware Bridge Authority assisted and lead us across the bridge and blocked the other traffic. A very nice ride! I wish I had not forgotten my camera.
We arrived at the Childrens Hospital to be welcomed by Christmas carrolers. It was really cool and very Christmassy. The six of us from Delaware left the hospital and headed to the Deer Park Tavern in Newark for a little more Christmas cheer as the parade headed back to Jersey. I had one beer with my new found friends and went home. I had a euphoric holiday feeling riding home glad to have made new friends and had a great ride not to mention the heart warming Christmas experience at the childrens hospital… or the one beer I had on an empty stomach made me all warm and fuzzy.
When I got home I told Diana about the ride and she pointed out that I must have accidentally gone on a completely different ride than the Claymont Christmas Parade. Then I got a voice message from Gordy telling me they had a great ride without me. It wasn’t until then that I realized I went to the wrong Boston Market and coincidentally joined up with bikers who had arranged to meet up on the social website Biker Or Not. I’m glad I met my new friends and it was a great ride! I wish I had taken pictures so I could share them with you. I hope Gordy forgives me for missing his ride! Sorry Brother.
Please excuse me as I have to get ready for our FSH Christmas party. Thanks for visiting my motorcycle blog and taking time to read about my little holiday parade confusion. Merry Christmas everyone!

An Early Christmas for Me!
Wow, it’s like an early Christmas for me today! I got a free full face helmet and a 16 month calendar featuring “the sexy stars of nude magazines and videos” with The Dirty Dozen Gang! Keep in mind I didn’t order this!
I ordered a few calendars from Calendars.com as gifts for family. Apparently somone in the fulfillment department got confused and sent this calendar featuring nude adult actresses instead of the Ansel Adams calendar I ordered for my brother. Hmmm, I wonder how this happened? How does one mistake porno for B&W scenescapes? I feel really bad for the dude who ordered his hot naked steamy porn star calendar. Imagine his disappointment when he receives a calendar featuring B&W photography of American landscapes. I hope they send me the right calendar in time for Christmas! I think my brother might pass out if I give him this one. It’s a good thing I didn’t request the FREE gift wrapping! If I get stuck with this I’ll have to send it to Joker.
They are almost the same, I can see the resemblance!
Some really cool people at a company called Riders Discount sent me an HJC Modular Full Face Helmet to test out! I’m thinking this will keep my head warm while riding in the winter. Riders Discount has over 400,000 products and a low price guarantee. Most of their product line is geared toward the sportbike market but they intend on expanding. You can call them at 1-866-931-6644 and tell them the Road Captain sent you or check out their website at www.RidersDiscount.com
Keep an eye out for my review on the HJC SY-MAX II full face modular helmet with integrated sunshield. I feel like Darth Vader when I put this on but I’m not gonna complain if it keeps my head warm in December and January. I also hope this “wind tunnel tested” helmet eliminates the vibration I experience when I ride with my windshield on.

Our West Virginia Pictures and Video
Diana and I are addicted to moto blogging. As we travel by motorcycle our thoughts are with our readers and stories are formed while we ride. We are always thinking of ways to share our experience with you. On this trip Diana thought pictures would be more effective; we can only describe the beautiful scenery and great roads to a limited extent. But of course, a picture is worth a thousand words. So we have posted 390 pictures of West Virginia to our Flickr account and Diana is making a few video’s for your enjoyment.

Diana has been working on this masterpiece since we got home. We mean no offense to anyone, but we call this the Hillbilly Video! We hope you enjoy it.
