Grandma at the HD ShopFrom: Mike Hartz <mhartz@uic.edu> Next Article (by Date): Re: shit happens( as totally off topic as can be) NANOOKxNTH@aol.com Christmas morning brought me the cup holder I've wanted. From my Mom, along with a cute story. I am 60, she is 84. So she goes to the HD dealer (2 blocks from her house) and is wandering around the showroom. Check'n the bikes, admiring the paint jobs, and thinking back to when they were first married and my Dad had an Indian Chief. So up comes a salesman and asks if he can help her. She says she's looking for a cup holder and he asks what kind of bike. She had just looked at the Sporties, and saw one painted like mine, so she points and say's "Just like that". He takes her to the chrome wall, and helps her find one. He then asks "How long you been riding?" Well she's pretty sharp and decides to have some fun. "Well young man I first rode on a motorcycle in 1942. It was an Indian Chief and my husband and I had a lot of fun on it, but I haven't ridden in a couple of years." (True because she had gone for a 2 block ride on the back of my Sporty) So he asks what kind of bike she road lately and she said "A Sportster just like that one", pointing at the one she had seen. She paid for the cup holder and was leaving when she saw him talking to some of the other sales people and pointing at her. She said he seemed to be all excited about the senior rider who just left.
