Welcome Casper..everywhere Wildman goes he meets people that have the same problem with their finger as he has....BoomBoom
Hey Jack the jacket is a Joe Rocket Reactor. It's an awesome hot weather jacket. Very light weight, removable liner and water proof if God forbid ya get rained on (which happens every afternoon here in the mountains...sheesh!) The only problem is that I have replaced 2 of the several zippers as they are plastic and tend to be weak. But I do like the look. It's different than what everyone else has, Thanks!Welcome Casper , I really like your jacket . It looks like what I've been looking for . Would you mind telling me what make it is and where you bought it ??
Oh I forgot to tell you I bought it on line @ Dennis Kirk.com!hogv8 wrote:Thanks Casper , I'll check it out . I have a heavy leather for cold weather riding but as you know there are a lot of days when a T shirt is not warm enough and you just don't need a heavy jacket so a light weight jacket would be great to have .

Thanks for your question Regis. It seems the story of the Nep Distillery has a proud and hallowed past. Back in the late 1700's in the township of Williamsport Pennsylvania, current home of the Little League Baseball World Series. Horace Nep opened a small pub named Nep's Pub. People came from far and wide to enjoy some of Mr. Nep's homemade brews, not to mention Mrs. Nep's famous hot wings. You see Nep had the distinction of filtering the brew through his beautiful virgin daughter's bloomers (panties today). Which was said to either enhance or distract from the flavor of the beer depending on which day of the week it was. You see the beautiful virgin Nep sisters only bathed and laundered occasionally as was the practice of the day. As a humorous side note, the sisters would quite often come down with horrible yeast infections caused from putting their bloomers back on before the beer had completely dried. These yeast infections were often misdiagnosed by the physicians of the time as gonorrhea! This brought much shame to Mr. and Mrs. Nep as one might imagine since the sisters were reputed to be virgins. It was also the reason for a dramatic decline in beer sales. It wasn't long however until the cause of these infections was traced to the yeast in the brew. Which caused much jocularity among the town folks. This is when Horace Nep made the epic decision to switch from brewing beer to distilling whisky. And behold Nep Whisky quickly became a household name. However the Neps could never escape the shame caused by the earlier infections as many of the towns people made fun and ridiculed Mr. Nep until he apparently could stand it no longer. This is when he relocated the distillery to Finland! And as far as I know Nep Whisky is still proudly served todayregis wrote:Where can I purchase some "nep" Whiskey?![]()

Casper swung a leg over the Hoss today for his first ride. Hopefully he will write his review here tomorrow and tell you what he thought. He told me he wants one but many of us know it takes some planning to move up to a Hoss. Anyway having a great time here in New Mexico and the weather has been great. WM
