Wow what a nice night for a spin to the store. I took the Flightliner out for a beating and it totally beat me! She's a killer going uphill, but more than makes up for it on the downside! I love the smells, the cool air, the fog refracting in the headlight, and that big beautiful moon with Venus floating off to the right. Good stuff. The big chain wheel on this beast, along with the 5 rear gears is like hyper-drive! I love night rides, and yes you do go faster... 8)
