    My scoots color, so my name is Mr. Cognac. When I had a red 2011 RTS, I was Big Red 1. My email is scoot62 as I started using email in 1962 and the name of my bike then was "Scoot". I know I am not very original, but I am 84 and do as I please.......


    Yesterday we were riding to our Saturday breakfast. One member was late and catching up, went into a curve too fast, locked the rear wheel on his beautiful HD. He slid 100' and the bike went 200' according to the sheriff....broke his clavicle, six ribs and lots of rash. He is in ICU but talking. I am sad.

    George, I'm sorry to hear about your friend and I hope he heals quickly and completely!

    As for my name, it's simply me; a loner who can't stand populated areas or situations.
