    Smile Nearly caused an Accident

    With a few querstions to Buchannon Biker about riding kilted, I thought I'd post this. I have an old Honda 2 wheel drive Rancher 4 wheeler that I use to back into the woods when "Chasing the Wild Deer and Following the bow". I also use it to ride down my driveway to get the day's mail if i8t is already out rather than starting a Dodge 4x4. and driving it.

    Anyhow I mounted up wearing my semi Traditional Gordon kilt and a sweater As I always do at the end of the driveway, I stopped to check for oncoming traffic. There was a pickup coming, so I waited. The only problem was that the driver was so interested in my kilt that he dang near ran off the road into the farmer's pasture on the other side. Fortunately he regained his composure and continued on

    Re: Nearly caused an Accident

    I was standing on the side of a Paramus NJ. Highway waiting for the NYC bus. Every Black Range Rover in the world drove by and lots of people strained their necks to get a look at the guy in the kilt. Several changed lanes and "almost" wrecked. I stood behind my wife for a bit but too many jerlks were whistling at her. I diod cause a slowdown in traffic until the bus got there.

    The Power of the Kilt!
