ageekgirl, we'll have to post pics of you all in blue and hipcat all in pink together at last.

Louie, it sounds like a plan to me.

That should be quite entertaining.

i tried to get an orange/red theme going for a moment. that's where my avatar came from, pictures to see what the combo looked like. a red leather jacket without the scooter turned out to be a bit too, um, youthful for me. i do have a great red wool coat from mission possible though.

Its a good color family combination. I can't wait to see the red wool coat!

When DH got the Ural in Feb 06, I went looking for a coat for me to wear, and lucked into a leather trench coat at Zoe's for $20.00. Yay consignment shop sales! Later that summer I got the blue Joe Rocket mesh jacket, but the first time I went for a ride in the sidecar was with the black leather trench coat.

I really wanted to wear my leather flying helmet too, but ...

The ad makes it looks like it's gonna be a real 'shocker' of an event.

louie · Post by **louie** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 2:29 pm
