French Harley Street Bob Club
|
I build a home page for the French Street Bob owners.

This seems excessively restrictive. Suppose some Frenchman living
in a tiny village in Gascony happens to be the proud owner of
a 35th Anniversary Super Glide (perhaps unique in all of France,
considering that only 3500 were built) I suppose he would still
be ineligible?
OTOH what about a Quebecois Street Bob owner? In your view, does
a French-Canadian count as "French"? How about a Cajun, as in
the following by Mary Chapin Carpenter:
Well it's Saturday night and the moon is out,
I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout,
Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat.
When it lifts me up, I'm gonna find my feet.
Out in the middle of a big dance floor,
When I hear that fiddle, wanna beg for more.
Wanna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight.
Well, I never have wandered down to New Orleans.
Never have drifted down a bayou stream,
But I heard that music on the radio,
And I swore some day I was gonna RIDE MY STREET BOB
Down Highway 10 past Lafayette,
To Baton Rouge and I won't forget,
To send you a card with my regrets,
'Cos I'm never gonna come back home.
Anyway, off the southern coast of Newfoundland there are two tiny
rocks called St. Pierre and Miquelon. You'd be lucky to find a road
there more than a kilometer long in any direction, but these islands
are an integral part of Metropolitan France. Perhaps one of
the habitants is a Street Bob owner (stranger things have happened)
and so is a prime candidate for your group. Better check it out.
Meanwhile I think I'll found a club exclusively for blue
Ultra Classic Electra-Glides with staggered duals and a dent
in the gas tank. For a premium membership you'll also need some
road rash on the roll bars.

Is that anything like a Blackadder "Bob".

If you ride the same bike and also you have a home page you can send me the
link.
It is always interessant to see what is done elsewhere.
Have a good ride!
