I don't know........My too gay threshold is pretty high.
If I went to gay pride parades I would probably call too gay on about the forth or fifth parade. That picture just seems like another day down by the wharf , kind of looks familiar.
Others have a much lower threshold it seems. Just thinking about putting a rack on a vette and they want to pull your card. A long time ago I decided muscle power would be my primary recreational deal. Motor powered recreation is fun, but I go for the healthy body, sound mind thing. Both are in decline as I become forced more and more , to wear the tattered rags of old age.
Thought I would throw that last quote in for grins. I'm still kickin it above ground. I am lately beginning to wonder if I am now too old to go big. I guess that's a sign.
Whups, gay again.

you have a lot of free time
If you read this far, let me apologize for this entire thread. I finally checked the strength of the trunk lid where the bike carrier would attach and it is too flexy to carry any kind of concentrated load safely.
I now understand why the post got slammed. Ignorance can be real handicap to understanding.
Thanks again to all. My trunk lid already has a slight pagoda effect, the edges are slightly curled up, I think it is normal wear. A corvette body man said it was from sitting groceries on the trunk.

Useful info, especially if I get off my *** and get on with biking in the near future. And to the folks with the 'gay' and 'stupid' comments, go suck a shift ****, the only thing you helped was your postcount. 
Strand, the only reason your post got 'slammed' is because some people are utter @holes.
