Pepper Took My Whip From Me!

But for a very good reason. For those who don’t remember, in 2007 my buddy Pepper made a getback biker whip for me (http://www.hogbiker.com/2007/04/03/have-my-own-getback-biker-whip/53).

I’ve had that whip on my bike all that time…whind, rain, snow (yep…been caught in snow while riding), you name it. That whip has been a steady friend.

Even when I had my wrech last year, the whip survived and was able to be placed back on the brake handle as always.

So…last night, Lynn and I are riding home from dance class and low and behold we pass Pepper! We do a U turn and catch up with him.

After a few hugs and some spirited chatting, the next thing I know Pepper grabs the whip off the bike and in his normal blusterous voice (he’s a very LOUD dude) he says “this thing need an over haul!” and it’s in his tour pack.

At the time I really didn’t think much of it. The guy who made the whip wants to re-dye and re-braid it so it looks like new…cool!

However since it’s been gone, it’s like I’m missing an old friend.

I know it will be back on the brake handle soon, but I just never knew how much I really liked the thing till now.

I can’t wait till I have it back.
