    That is beautiful. I miss my ultra something fierce. If I had my choice on a trike it would be an ultra with the Hannigan kit. I’m not a fan of the tri glide

    The Ultra Classic feels much lighter and I enjoy the sound and maneuverability but I am not a fan of the tri-glide.  The short narrow wheelbase just doesn’t feel as stable as the venture with the hannigan kit  

  2. Anyone up for a Myrtle Beach Meet & Eat this month?  I’m going to the Fall Rally starting Sept 26 and if anyone is interested in getting together for lunch about midweek we can plan something. And if anyone is interested, I may be able to provide an overnight stay if someone needs.  Just depends on if a friend rides down with me or not.

    Great.  I  saw a picture you had posted on Facebook.  Looked great.  What the heck happened to the rear brakes?

    There was moisture in the fluid and when it got hot it created air bubbles. 

    Had it been changed or was it probably the original brake fluid? 

  4. Well the Ultra Classic got four hours of pampering yesterday and the HD shop. It got a complete 10K checkup with all fluids changed, new grease, and a few loose bolts tightened. I temporarily lost the rear brakes the other day but that's all been taken care of.  There was a good bit of water/moisture in the brake reservoirs. Everything checked out good and rides like a new bike. Definitely a different breed, but still fun to ride. I'm looking forward to my first long ride down to the Fall Myrtle Rally at the end of the month.

    Hi Skidder! So I pay $7.90 a month for my Medicare Part D which gets me two of my meds (1 top tier, and 1 2nd tier) at $6 and $2 each for 90 days worth of pills. My cancer drug was an additional $145 per month out of pocket with my Part D insurance (that is called Silver Script?). Someone told me about "GOOD RX" which is a free card you can sign up for at GoodRX.com. I signed us up for that and that little card brought my Cancer drug down to $12 but saves nothing on my other 2 drugs. I was shocked at how easy the Good Rx card was to use. I use pharmacy within a local chain department store and it was absolutely no problem or hassle to use.   Good RX is outside of my insurance plan and is free and my Part D carrier has no link to them or even knowledge of the fact I am using them that I know of.. Is that the kind of info you were looking for? Hope so! Aint this getting old stuff fun LOL? Puc  

    Did you see what the cost is on Cost Plus?

    Concur with @cowpuc on good Rx.  My pharmacy Walmart wanted $50 for my wife’s naproxen which is basically Aleve.  And they wanted some other outrageous price for something else and good Rx brought it like 80% down.  On top of that the pharmacy was more than willing to take the time to get us the lowest price possible.  In the end it’s just proof that insurance companies really don’t care about our well being and there is no profit in the cure.

    Looks like Cost Plus would be a lot cheaper for you

  8. I just refilled 4 prescriptions with Cost Plus Drug Company and my total copay was approx $28. That’s with $5 shipping charge. Before these would have costed me over $120 thru my insurance.  I told a few members last week how I can get my chemo medication for $39.00 instead of the $175.00 that my insurance company wanted. This company really works without going thru your insurance. I would like to hear other examples of friends saving money on prescriptions.

  9. HOME SAFE @ 11:00 am

    Lots of rain and wet roads but made it safe back to Gassaway.  I left before daylight at approx 5 am in light rain. I probably rode about 5 of the 6 hours in the rain. I had a great time and it was wonderful to see some old friends again.  Thanks everyone especially Woody & Trina, and Joe & Bobbi.
