Certainly a cool factor there but come on people!

Okay, dumb question. I know you mentioned your ride but not sure what it is street/racer/dirtbike?

Pounding head against the wall.

Now I do think I remember you talking about a Shadow Aero earlier in the thread. (or maybe on some other thread? )

Great looking bike you have there!

Do you have a ride bell?

No. I do not. It is my understanding those are supposed to be gifted, and I am a solo rider (commuter bike) and not part of any group.

Not really superstitious either. If one was gifted to me I'd fit it to the bike but, I wouldn't go out of my way to obtain one either.

I think I am going to see if I can trade my helmet for the Yellow one.

I've been smoking pipe a lot lately, at least a bowl an evening. Mostly English Supreme, but some black & burley and some Virginia #!.
Tonight I went with a favorite cigar though, Gran Habaño #5 corojo. Really good stick, but I have a bowl of B&B packed to have with my morning coffee.
Did you get any kind of shipping notification and/or tracking number?

So far I've gotten two emails from them. One confirmed the order and the other indicated order completion. Nothing has said that anything has shipped, when to expect delivery, or how to track the order.

I don't think I created an account tho. (I usually order as a guest).

I think that's all I got as well. I know that I didn't get a tracking # or way to follow the package. It probably took a week or so from the "order completion" email to arrive.

Sadly, I'm not smoking anything aside from the occasional needed cigarette. It figures, on the same day I got my pipes, I got a box of cigars (Gran Habaño #5 corojo) and now I have a head and chest cold so there's no point in enjoying them. My own fault though, mine and my buddy's wife both had colds last week, we had dinner and drinks with them over the weekend and we guys enjoyed our beers with plenty of pipe smoking... now we're both sick and the wives are laughing it up. I'll take another shot of zinc with an Emergen-C back, please.

Nice, gotta love the uncanny timing! I got a couple "meh" cobs, but a couple that I would've chosen too. The Country Gentleman is a really nice looking and smoking pipe.

I haven't compared actual "models". They all pretty much look the same, and are pretty much the same size except one Freehand, and one egg. Otherwise, it's most either bent or straight bit.

Fine by me.

The egg's the gentleman. I looked at the Freehand, I kinda like it, you got a real steal too... alone it sells for $31.39!!
