correct, you've answered 1/2 of the question.
US 2
applaudd very good, west on hwy 2
your next one wont be as easy, you may need a map.
A hard days ride, change highways before the mountain of steel.
A game of cards with the cows on the highway of the dead mans hand, it will be hard to beat a pair by sundown and no sleep before the mighty one.
on what road? and no stoping until....
OK I'll give it a try
hard days ride, change highways before the mountain of steel = Iron Mountain
A game of cards with the cows = wisconson
on the highway of the dead mans hand = hwy 8
it will be hard to beat a pair by sundown = you will pass hwy 55
and no sleep before the mighty one. = Monico
so you will be getting off on Hwy 8 and stoping for the night in Monico WI. ==shrug
ya got the 1st 3 correct, definately on the right track
mountain of steel = Iron Mountain
game of cards with the cows = Wisconsin
highway of the dead mans hand = ace's and EIGHTS = hwy 8
try try again ;D
Ok I'll try again since I already got the first three right I'll just do the others
it will be hard to beat a pair by sundown = Hwy 27 ( the cards that Doyle brunson (spelling) is know for playing)
and no sleep before the mighty one = You'll be stoping in Bruce wisconson ( from the movie Bruce Almighty)
If this still isn't right can I just guess where your going I think I know ???
a pair by sundown = follow hwy 8.. it goes to St Paul/Minneappolis.. the TWIN cities ie.. a pair ( this is also a 350 mile ride, tuff to do by sundown)
no sleep before the mighty one = the MIGHTY Mississippi
So the rest of it was gonna be..
easy goin now, the 2 of us.. 4 wheels, 2 headlights, yet we're both in control -- how is this possible?
Head west to where the hills are always dark and we will see 4 great men and a galloping lunitic.. where are we going, and who will we see?
Go ahead, I like your thinkin by the way.. ==np
go motor bikin thats awsume mount rushmoore
Yup your ridin your motor scooters, going to see Mt. Rushmore in the black hills of South Dakota
george washington thomas jefferson theadore roosevelt abe lincoln
general custer near the bad lands

a hero to the red man, he joined forces with Sitting Bull and formed the resistance against the white mans encroachment, he fought against General Custer in the battle of the little Big Horn.

QuoteAnybody know where I can buy a tire repair kit - dealerships don't sell them.. some BS about liability.
prolly k marts/wallmarts or hardware store , you could always buy a xtra tube, not sure of that cost tho,
have fun, make memorys & be safe !
Both bikes have cast aluminum wheels, no tubes, just lookin for a quick fix to get us down the road until a proper repair can be made.. but I'll check into those thanx.
Hopefully the Great Spirit will grant me a safe journey to and from Sacred ground.
This is as much a purifying, religious experience as it is a motorcycle trip out west.
have a great trip!!! ride safe!
