Haven't posted on this forum in quite awhile due to my newfound alliance with the Ridazz, but I'm not starting anything either.
Only reason I feel comfy with this group is due to the fact that I'm usually out on truck runs and everytime I ride, I feel like the stranger from High Plains Drifter.
No one on a bicycle except for me in the cities I go to.
So getting with this group every once in awhile makes me feel a little better and relieves some stress acquired from driving an 18wheeler and dealing with everyday freeway BS.
Also, this could be considered just another form of anger reduction in addition to my usual gym overkill trips.
IE.,ride bike 5-10 miles to 24Hr gym, run 1hr-1.5hr on elleptical, lift weights for 1hr-1.5hr, then ride back and chill.

It's a Smokey and the Bandit reference.

Don't all truck drivers automatically know all truck-related pop cultural references?

I'm too "new-school" to know all of those oldie trucking references.
Maybe if I get my CB working, I'll start incorporating ZooBomb terms mixed with what little trucker lingo I've picked up.
