Any of you fellow cigar smokers ride a bike? And if so what is your favorite cigar to take along for a day trip to enjoy the ride with?

I ride a 1999 Ducati 996. My favorite cigar to take along is a lightweight Don Diego. It allows me to keep my sense of balance. And God knows I need all the help I can get. The bike is very easy to go fast on, but it constantly reminds me how much better it is than me.

I prefer a LFD Ligero series or a PI Rothchild. Great light flavored smokes. Getting ready for the Biketoberfest at Myrtle Beach and will smoke a few while there!

1997 Harley FLSTF. Fatboy to the uninitiated. LaLuna is my latest kick. Maduro Fuerte, African Fuerte and Natural Fuete. Can't seem to make up my mind which one, these days.

Years ago I had a Z1-900 but didn't smoke then; Now, with a lot less hair and a few pounds more, I very often dream of the hawg I ride down the road throughout the Southwest with a big fat woman on the back "holdin' on" and my El Rico Habano glowing in the wind; the ash comes off and she gets a mouthful, but she's tough and motions with her hand for me to pass her the backwash Bud in the cup holder so she can wash it down....yeah...maybe some day...

2002 Suzuki Bandit 1200S (Silver)

K&N Stage II Jet Kit
K&N "sleeper" intake filter system
Yoshi slip-on exhaust
Holeshot Bandit Factory Drop-in Cams
Holeshot +5 timing advancer
Givi MonoRack Carrier.

But I can only carry the cigars in the rack ... ashes burn my friggin ears .... Perdomo SP Reserves or a Montecristo #2 (either unlit).

Pics available (with or without the wife) available to the non-believers.

To be totally honest ... I haven't even opened it up yet ... still scares the hell out of me and I've had it for almost 3 months (but for 6 weeks it was in storage for my left coast assignment).

Anyone in CT/MA/RI up for weekend touring? Let me know ... I (and my wife) love to just go riding. Only problem with this bike/model ... friggin front end won't stay on the pavement if I punch it over 7g's .... it redlines at just under 12g's ....
... but we're game for a touring trip anytime we can get a babysitter.

p.s. The Yoshi exhaust may be GONE soon as it's too obnoxious on the noise and the factory (drilled out just a little) offers very comparable performance w/o the nuisance of disturbing the neighbors.

Also - looking for a place (local) to store it this winter (climate controlled) if anyone knows of a place. - Regards - Jim

Harley 883 custom and anything from my humidor. I'll be going to the 100th HD anniversary on 9-7 at California Speedway and I'll be packing a few 'gars for the festivities. It doesn't get much better than that.

Hey EL,

Windshield, huh? I was wondering how to keep a gar lit while cruising on a scoot. Never could give up the feel of an 80mph wind in my face on highway 90 heading to Sturgis.

had a 1977 Harley FXE until a few weeks ago , sold it to make room for my new one - a 2003 FXD . I don't know if I would attempt burning one while riding , it probably would be too distracting . I can only dream of riding also , I live in upstate N.Y

2000 HD RoadKing Classic and probably not one prefered cigar. I really like the ACID Line, especially the Kuba Kuba. But when I am not doing the ACID line, I really like my PUNCH Punchitos. Great smoke and stays lit no matter what the weather!

'99 HD 1200C. Always carry two or three "seconds" of HdM or ERDM -- seconds because they might get a bit beat up in the wind and always two or three in case I need to give a couple away at a stop.

excellent attitude smokenude, I always have a couple extra to share with my friends, and some to share with those that are not yet my friends. Which leads me to a short story. I was smoking an Amoroso with some buds at our local hangout and this guy commented on how good the cigars smelled, well we gets to talking and I offered him one, he was just blown away by my friendly gesture and said it was one of the best cigars he'd smoked, now mind you he was probably not one of the most seasoned cigar smokers if he though an Amoroso was the best, but it is a good cigar. Every time I run into that guy in the hangout, he always thanks me for the cigar and now smokes that brand.

2003 Anniversary FLHTCI, 1991 FLHTC, and 1967 FLH (but obviously not all at once), and a Bucanero Classic Maduro Churchill after the ride, w/ a left coast cab, or something a little more toasty.
