I'd like to see you in action on that Harley, Jan! I wouldn't suggest doing that in Malta...too much traffic! Congratulations on yet another fine win. Hugs // paul

Jan, I loved the Easy Rider movie. My Ex used to ride us everywhere on his 750 motorcycle. Never had an accident or close call. He was careful, but they are dangerous just the same. I loved your poem and the nostalgia it brought me. Hope your son is not in danger from the weather? I have not been able to read or comment on poems all week because of the pop up ads, but I think they have fixed it now. xxoo

There is another typhoon approaching but I think he's used to them now! I've no intention of ever going on a bike - see enough accidents here at TT to put me off for life but I can understand the attraction of a motorbike!:-) hugs jan xx

very nice thinking of a bike motorized!! My hubbie went through several of them and I was so thankful when he finally gave it up. I hated having to go out with the motorcycle gang he was in!! (Bikers against Child abuse) But actually they acted like a gang in some ways and were not as nice as the name makes them sound.

September 29, 2018 at 12:59 PM

I think the bike theme was left to interpretation at least I hope it is lol:-) hugs Jan xx

September 28, 2018 at 6:59 PM

My boss had one, all chrome lovely bike. Hope you had a great break Jan. Tom

September 28, 2018 at 7:01 PM

They are lovely to see Tom I can understand the attraction of being on a motorbike:-) had a great break I think my muse is returning too:-) hugs Jan xx

September 28, 2018 at 6:12 PM

September 28, 2018 at 7:00 PM

You are correct I'm not Agnes.. I'm a boring old fart in reality lol I just live on an Island where the TT motorbike races are held:-) hugs Jan xx

September 28, 2018 at 4:36 PM

I knew you would choose Harley because they sound like hogs farting! Aloha! Rico

September 28, 2018 at 4:57 PM

September 28, 2018 at 3:31 PM

Great one, Jan. Superbly done.

September 28, 2018 at 3:33 PM

Thanks Line, I'm hoping to be back on soup a little more now, just been on a short break - our second in 3 weeks. Maybe my muse will start to behave now!:-) hugs Jan xx
