Hey all!

I just got back from a pretty good ride. I had an experience on my way out this late morning when I encountered a doe and her baby. When I ride the country roads I enjoy the scenery a lot, but I also have to watch out for cars pulling out and wildlife, so I'm always scanning with my radar. So, I'm riding a relaxing pace at 55-60 when off to the side of the road down an embankment I spot a doe and her baby. The momma was eye balling the road to see when she could jet out with her baby safely. I just stopped in my tracks and tried to slow down a passing car (dummies...deer are like squirrels...completely unpredictable). I blew my pathetic horn a few times to try and get her to make a decision -damn it. She then turned and ran off back into the woods. yay for biker radar... Did you know GA is #5 on the list of highest rates of motorcycle deer strikes?

OK, I'm heading off to Savannah with my new buddy next month. I'm first heading over to Augusta, then heading down to Savannah. so quite a bit of interstate riding... plus I think we're probably camping... Anyway, I need to turn my Sporty into a mini-bagger. I'm buying a detachable windshield (oh, how GD ugly), luggage rack, highway pegs for my engine guards, and this thing called a lazy bag (I hope). The kewl thing about the lazy bag is its a barrel with lots of pockets and has this detachable back pad so you can lean against it. I'm excited about the last feature because I don't want to swap out my solo seat for something with a backrest. Anyway, has anyone ever toured on a Sporty??
