    Went for a quick Thanksgiving Day joyride today, enjoy! Sorry about the poor audio quality at the beginning - seems to go away once I start riding.
    Warning: There's about a minute of USA chestbeating commentary in the vid where I was giving thanks for living in the USA - so my apologies to the non-USA members :)
    Edit: I just noticed that there's a speed limit sign in the thumbnail pic which is a bit lower than what's showing on my speedometer :glee:

    I'm thankful for a lot of things, One that stands out pretty much every day is to Mom for being there, and the life I would have happen if it weren't for her, miss her lots, funny what we take for granted then once gone...........................in that the list is long, but in short thankful I'm on this side of the dirt, when I look back at what life threw at me makes me wonder how n the H I pulled it off. Happy Gobble Gobble.

    I'm thankful for having a loving wife and two adorable kids who only occasionally drive my wife and myself nuts. LOL. Also very thankful to have a fantastic relationship with my parents and a few very close friends.

    AND of course, I'm thankful to have 3.5 Honda's in the garage, including 2.5 VFR800's. :eek:nthego:

    Don't apologize for being proud of your country. I am proud to be Canadian. Also proud and thankful to my many friends all over this globe here in the World.

    Thing is though, you guys are so late in your Thanksgiving festivities. But like so many other things in life, y'all eventually follow our lead.

    I'm thankful that you covered your license plate up.
    I'm thankful for family and friends like you who give us a glimpse into your little neck of the woods...especially by moto.
    I'm thankful to have a job where I hope I can make a difference in the life of a child.
    I'm thankful for this country, like you are, even though I want to move...at least to get out of Kansas.
    I'm thankful for my 5 senses...without them, riding motos near and far would not be the same.

    Touching comments about your Mom RVFR - I feel the same way about mine.

    Hmmm...3.5 Hondas? That's awesome - I wonder if I should count my Honda lawnmower as a full Honda or just .5 of a Honda? LOL

    I'm thankful that we in the USA have such good neighbors up in the Great White North - you guys have some of the best comedians, rock bands, beer, etc.!

    Thanks AM - yeah I'm glad I covered up my plate at the beginning - I don't want to make it any easier for that German Shepherd to just watch my vid, call his friend at the DMV, and then track me down and kick my ass - LOL. I kind of deserve it though - I still feel bad about scaring that dog :frown:

    Thank you. wished I could say the same. Our neighbours to the north are frightening, politically that is. I am sure joe citizen is a caring, gentle and kind person. Now to the south, I am humbled by the friends I have there. May your future be peaceful, except of course for the sweet sound of a few V4s singing in harmony.

    Ahh, don't be so sad. I love revving moto at kids and animals. It's fun, see their reaction. I don't do it to scare them. Usually it's me trying to get the cows to look up with all of them here in Farmville. And I love thinking a rev at a kid might ignite the fire for moto passion.

    Maybe you'll see that German Shepherd riding it up some day like this pooch...while holding your belongings! Never know if you lit a fire in that K-9. ;)
