Fort Collins, CO
Yesterday, we dropped The Ride off at Thunder Mountain Harley-Davidson for a well-deserved 10,000 mile maintenance and new rear brake pads. Considering Tim didn't get his license until around the first of August last year and that our real riding didn't begin until nearly September, I guess 10,000 miles in nine months is pretty good.
But who's counting - well chances are - Tim is - he's a number guy. You don't say 10,000 miles if it is actually 10,320. You don't figure anything is about half an inch - either it is or it isn't. You don't say it is cold or hot unless you know how [the number] cold or hot it is. I see flowers blooming, Tim sees how many. You absolutely do not say you are celebrating your birthday the weekend before or after your birthday. He says - the day is the day. You get the idea. All I'm saying is a little precision is needed when talking numbers with Tim. Now you know why we keep track of the miles. Ha!
