If anyone needs to see details of the Ocean City bike week incident I mentioned www.oceancitytoday.com/news/local-walsh-family-hoping-for-miracle-after-hit-and-run-collision-in-ocean-city/article_61cd3796-75ec-11ef-ba84-cf327fcc6245.html
I've driven over that bridge once or twice. Well I guess if I drove over it once I had to come back that way, so I've been on it at least twice. :) Ecstatically bridges are beautiful. However, I do have a bit of a phobia when it comes to going over tall/long bridges. I'll stay in the middle lane have both hands on the steering wheel and if there is a vehicle in front of me I will get close, not too close, but close to it and ride it until near the end of the bridge. I don't look over at the rail sides at the water either - I only look right in front of me. I know. I know. I made this all about me. LOL :)
Thanks. Really appreciate that! But no, the stock seat is not very comfortable for long rides. I did a 5 hour ride recently and after 3 hours it was almost unbearable.
Nice vid. Where do you mount your Gopro.?I tried using one and put it on top of my helmet and the sound was like I was in a hurricane. Also do you have an external mic setup?
Thanks! I use Chinmounts.com, been very happy with them, and I really like the point of view. The only way to get acceptable audio is to use a mic inside the helmet. I have a lavalier mic that plugs into a GoPro media mod, and I run the cable inside the helmet.
I just changed the back tire on my 23 Lowrider s Saturday. Free tires for life from my dealer. Only 7400 miles on the bike. PS I probably would have turned around when I saw that water in the beginning. I did just that in Sea Isle NJ on Sunday. Didn't want to chance going through 3 feet of water.

Love riding on the bridge great views
I've ridden the Chesapeake Bay Bridge several times. BEAUTIFUL ride. If you ever have a chance, the Mackinac Bridge is an experience. Safe Riding.

That ship causing the bridge collapse in Baltimore has me on edge now whenever I see a ship near the bay bridge.
love your content brother. I just have a question is the seat comfortable for long rides?
Thanks. Really appreciate that!

I don't get it my Harley tires have over 12k on them and I'm not even close to needing new tires.
I suspect Harley installs good quality tires from the factory. And tires for sportier bikes use a softer compound for more grip, but less tread life.
Different riding styles and different bikes. I'm lucky to get 10k out of the tires on my Ultra limited.

Mrs Slow rider says never let your slowrider wife see your speed. She will care. Don't make me put training wheels on that while your gone.
