WHO- is the South Carolina Rider???

Today 05/30/2011- The wife and i were coming back thru South Carolina on US Highway 26 at mile marker 76 which is just south of Columbia, SC You the rider on the red Superhawk came easing up on the family CAGE-us running 85mph...
We gave you the thumbs up ( at the smooth sound of the chrome exhaust cans (yoshi, or D&D-ya really didn't hang around for our view)
My wife got all excited from the exhaust, then began apologizing for not wanting to ride my S-hawk to the beach(4hrs)...

As you made your way out of site within the next 4 miles...
Give us a Howdy....

Sounds like someone is short on some gear.

If it was me I wouldn't be using sneakers without socks. I prefer Sperry Top Siders. But I am from California and shoes are important.

ATGATT...

I'm in Clemson commuting to Spartanburg for the summer but I am carpooling and not on my bike. My bike is a midnight blue.

Yeller, We here believe in wearing the helmets. I was wearing one in the car(didn't help with her noise...Ha Ha
All of you ridin' in T-shirts- You can always hope when your *** , or skin gets ground into hamburger, in the 98 degree weather- that the asphalt is hotter than 120 degrees- So as you cauterize your wounds..
Bike was RED...

I try my damnedest to wear my gear all the time, but like blue said, its only may and we have had 95+ degrees and 80%+ humidity every day this week. It's miserable to ride all covered up sometimes.

I'm surprised it was able to go that fast if it was red!

I have one, and I wear it about 95% ofnthe time in the summer, but that other 5% is sooooooo hard. I do however ALWAYS wear a helmet even though we don't have a helmet law.

And sorry for the thread jack

Thought it coulda been me til you posted what the rider was wearing. I live in that area and have a red 98 Superhawk with D&D cans. I ride with a shoei rf1100 sever helmet and a red speed and strength mesh jacket or a red and white built jacket if the weather is cool. Everyone in the area should get together for a ride sometimes. Superhawks are not very popular in the area. I had one dude ask me if it was a duc after i pulled into the gas station.
