Our cabinet doors were opened, crap all over the floor, and shelves broken.
What a mess.

Been there, done that, but we were in 8 to 10 foot waves at the time.
All of our galley cabinets have heavy duty latches now.


I wonder what the speed limit was in that area, and how fast John was
going... I mean, if the roads were under construction, the speed limit
could have been down around 40-45 in the city loop. Seems you might be
moving a bit faster than that to do that kind of damage, and there is no
way I am going to believe a "five inch" dropoff, all the way across the
road...


I have seen it on the beltway. In fact a guy I know wiped out on one
of these "buckles" on a Sportster and I ended up fixing the bike for
him.



Not trying to indict John... just wondering about 5", seems even outside
Boston that would be addressed somehow...


How's this, "The height may have been only 2-3", but felt like a half foot!"

So accuse me of lying, as though I give a rat's ass. They were the worst 'bumps' I've ever
experienced on a highway.

Sorry John, knew you would take it that way.. Just trying to keep a
handle on things in this conversation. Remember, the libs here are
waiting for us to screw up so they can get back to saying the whole
country is falling apart...... Lighten up, I know two inches at 65
probably felt like a foot.... I get it, I tow a lot up here, really I
do.....
