Ain't enough CSI tape, for "SHE" & I to work together....
With "HER" it's "HER WAY" I of course tend to lean towards the "Right way "
"SHE" wants to get her CCW, so I of course want to stop by the " FFL
![Wink ;)](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/wink.gif)
" and get the skinny on classes and times....
I also wanted to swing by a Bike shop ( SHE wants one ) so
we SHE decides to " lets go look at bike at the bike shop "
and grab some lunch....
Me... "OK, know where one is ?"
HER... Yes over in Kissimmee ...
Me... OK, where in Kissimmee ?...
HER ...on Orange Blossom Trail...
point of clarity here
Orange Blossom Trail is US 441 run from Miami thru Central Florida , Kissimmee , Orlando and all the way to Ohio !So somewhere on OBT between Kissimmee & Orlando some 26 miles is this dam bike shop
![Huh ???](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/huh.gif)
Oh ! and "SHE" only knows that "SHE" WAS told one was there ! doesn't know the name of the flicking Place...
Ever try to find a place you don't know the name of, somewhere on a highway between hell & high water on Christmas EVE ?
and TRY to stay , PC , Calm &/or cheery ?
And to add insult to the issue, the dam bike she like's is $500
![Shocked :o](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/shocked.gif)
They even had one @ $2500+ are you kidding me $2500+ clams for bike !
![Shocked :o](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/shocked.gif)
I even saw one, kinda like the old day's like we usta ride ( remember with fenders ) , call them cruiser's now....
Back then we'd pull the fenders off, thought it was pretty cool, remember ?
OK... so I'm looking at all the new high dollar bikes, without finders ( hell everything they had were " no fenders "
even the $2500 bike ) except this one CRUISER , I spy....
First thing I notice , the front fender is on backwards
![Undecided :-\](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/undecided.gif)
told the guy... he's like DUH !
![Roll Eyes ::)](https://www.cascity.com/forumhall/Smileys/cowboys/rolleyes.gif)
So it does instill confidence, in a high end mall bike shop, with $2500 dollar price tags , and the kid that runs the place & the kid assembler who just finished the assembling the $400 cruiser in question.... don't know front from the back of a fender when it's painted
and tail finned like its own rear fender....
So here is the skinny ..."SHE" wants one ( SHE has a Schwinn 10 speed Sport bike read Mtn. Style ) but its not road bike
and her plan it to ride with her Sister on 25 Mile charity rides & and fun type
thinks like that ! (
thinks is right )
So... She say's to me, She say's .... (insert higher pitch, female lilt voice here) "maybe you ( means me ) would like to get one and ride with US !" ( OH and of course the Bro. in law ) ...
I go " yeah ! Right.... I'll go for the $2500 , and it'l have motor on it...I can be the guy that rides along beeping the annoying little horn at intersections, so use guys don't get squashed by traffic.... or save the $$$$ and be the guy driving the SUV with the spare tires & parts with on board bike mechanic.... "
Kinda went down hill from there ...
