yesterday's ride was an Alumni Day...

yesterday, the ladies of HOG Jakarta Chapter cater a charity run for the victims of the West Sumatra's earthquake.. but, for the three of us, it was a reunion of the Part & Accesories guys of the Jakarta's H-D dealership, which have moved out of the company for better opportunities.. me and Wira meet up with our old Parts Manager, Charisma.. we gather at Circle-K near Wira's house and ride to the dealership..the dealership found a new way to customized a Sportster.. turn it in to a police bike..!!
i meet up with an old sweetheart.. my old company car, a '06 VRSCR Street Rod.. nobody else in the dealership wanted to ride it because it's a V-rod, but it was a fun bike to ride.. and accelerate like a bullet..!! Wira used to tease me whenever i rode it, he ended up accessorizing almost 6 V-Rod later that year..
Part guys rules...!! that's my and Wira's old work station on the showroom floor.. we sold a whole lotta parts back then...
yes folks, we do have two of them here in Indonesia...
Wira, Charisma and me on our regular place to chat and argue where to eat for lunch..

we tagged along the convoy for about 10 minutes then bailed out from the rows of baggers to get some breakfast.. lotsa laugh, good weather, superb ride.. it' always good to ride with good friends..
