Green Hawk down and imploding mirrors

Yesterday Jay took mean green for a spin because it reached 60° out. About an hour later I get a call saying he's stranded with a flat front tire at the bottom of Marietta hill. So I donned my Cape and boots and jumped in my sister's big Dodge, Frank to the rescue!

Well in my haste I forgot to grab some straps out of the Yota. No worries, we set a coat on the passenger side bed rail and just leaned the bike over the side. Then I made a quick run to the bank to deposit some cash.

We crossed the old bridge in Mcconnelsville which is very narrow and I had to pass another big Dodge. Jay looks over at me all wild eyed and loudly proclaims "My mirror is hitting the side of the bridge!" Now what actually happened we will never know, but I think it was a case of spontaneous mirror combustion caused by solar flares.

Either way it looks like we'll be upgrading the mirrors. If big Dan could chime in I'd like a link to his mirrors, if Jay approves of that style ofcourse.
