Schiff insisted he was wearing "leather Harley boxers" underneath his conservative attire.

Nah, he probably took one of his HDs since they started & were sponsored by Harley-Davidson of Glendale.

But they are sweet.

The procession stretched out for miles along Interstate 5.

We used to live along the route....it's something to behold, and just goes on and on and on. Tons of people park on the overpasses and just watch from the top rails.

Which one? He's got two Shadows, a Rapide and a Comet, and a Phillipe-Egli, last I'd heard. And was after a Black Lightning....
