Dragon VS Two Old Guys on Gold Wings

Just a video of two old guys put-putin' up the dragon on their Honda Gold Wings.

This link is for part two of their video - part one showed them passing a bike so I won't include it with this post. Now, don't forget - both are on Honda Gold Wings, bags and all. They just take their time, so don't expect anything great...

I'm another old guy on a Gold Wing. The lighter scraping sound is the footboards. The heavier scraping sound is the exhaust.

Gold Wings will seriously fly and guys that know how to ride them well (read: guys who are not me) can embarrass lots of young guys who think they're sport bike hotshoes.

Just like folks who know how to drive their MINIs can embarrass lots of folks who only think they know how to drive their (insert name of your favorite ego-jewelry sports car here).

Old doesn't necessarily mean in the way.
