    Do you just ever ride???

    Had my whole day planned--Up at 4:00AM breakfast--drive hour to lake and fish--Woke up--Raining and very windy--O well had plenty of honey does---Later today just thought--Hell- I just want to go for a ride---Nothing like the ProMax 225 sport sound.Drove to the lake--Never took a pole out of the rod locker--just rode around..Burned gas.And yes hauled ass..So funny to see peoples face when this old man gets out of a Bullet. Never forget how fortunate we and you are to do this..I took a young man for a ride from the ramp and the smile on his face will never be forgotten..Stay safe out there and sometimes give the kids at the ramp a ride.....Very cool to hear a 12 year old boy say---Holly Shit mister...HAHAHAHA

    I do not think I ever have. I go to the lake to fish not burn gas and put wear on the motor for no reason.

    I've put some smiles and scared faces on many over the years.

    Love to just go for a ride. It's kinda like taking the Harley out sometimes you just want to get in the wind.

    Oh I’ve spent many hours out there just riding around, looking at new places, graphing and never pulled a rod out.

    Plus boat rides are fun!

    I've done it many times. When you only have one boat and want to go to the lake and boat ride, swim, picnic, whatever, the bassboat serves the purpose.

    Yesterday morning. Waited out the rain at the ramp. Put the old 184 champion in not too far from where she was made and just cruised burning gas and oil. Nothing beats firing up an old black max merc and the cloud of exhaust surrounds you. Brings back so many memories of anxious mornings.

    One of my favorite things to do is go for a long run first thing in the morning when nobody is on the water, just watching the sun come up on the lake. Sometimes I enjoy that just as much as fishing

    Fun day, wife and I do the same sometimes. Run up and down the St johns, maybe eat somewhere on the river. Enjoyable day for us.

    Yes. Sometimes I just like to go for a boat ride and gawk.

    A few times a season I will just put her in the water and stretch her legs.

    We do that from time to time. Just enjoy the day in the boat.
    There's lots of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.
