It was a freak spring weekend in the middle of winter!! I had to take advantage and go riding with my girl, Kate. Kate met another rider, Tiffany, and this was her first long ride! Loved riding with these ladies!! And to think I almost didn't go... "Zip ties are a motorcyclist's best friend!"
The day before my country ride with Kate and Tiffany, I broke my kickstand while loading my bike onto a trailer.
Or so I thought.
I taped it up, but on my way to meet the girls, I kept falling off.
I called a cancel on Kate a few minutes before I got to our meetup spot.
Then I changed my mind and showed up anyway.
Um, I want to try.
You want to try?
Yeah.
Hi!
Hello!
I taped a rock so that it won't release a button.
Uh-huh.
And, um, the kickstand keeps falling off, but it doesn't show off my engine anymore because I have that taped.
So, I'm going to try to tape it again.
And if I have to stop, then I'll just go home so you guys don't have to stop with me.
You know, I have zip ties.
Your spring is gone.
It attaches...
I can't remember where it attaches.
It attaches, I think, right here and right here.
Like a spring that goes right there.
Oh!
I thought it was there.
Yeah, it's probably still there.
Maybe I can go to the mountains an hour and a half away.
It might just be there.
So here's my travel toolkit.
Oh, awesome!
And I saw this on Moto Amino.
Uh-huh.
Zip ties are magic.
Now, the only thing I don't have is, like, a pocket knife or something.
Uh-huh.
But you could zip tie it up, and when we come to a stop, we can just snap it off.
Because I've got a bunch of these.
I've got, like, 300 of them.
Oh!
Are you sure?
Yeah.
You know, I think there's a crack in it.
What's that?
I think there's a crack in that one.
Oh, yeah.
Probably.
Oh, you know what?
I have scissors.
Do you?
Yeah, in my backpack.
There you go.
Because I had it for the electrical tape.
Okay.
It's a zip tie.
Yeah.
So let me...
Oh, that's tough.
Oh!
Oh my gosh, Kate!
Yes!
So much!
Yay!
So, um, if you need to pee, we're going to have to take turns holding your bike up.
Oh!
Oh my gosh, thank you so much!
This is a good-looking lineup.
Ooh, girl!
Look at you on that bus!
Look at you on...
I was like, what?
I was like, what size?
Oh my gosh, my pee isn't even in my ignition.
Ugh.
So...
Have you guys ever seen Raynaud's Syndrome?
I'm just going to have to put my phone on hold.
I swear I'm staying.
