Wednesday. Nothing from the VA, and nothing from the Army. I’ll take that. Maryville is quiet. I’m leaving it that way.

This Saturday is a bye. Kentucky is not until November 7. Saturday’s a bye. I’m fine with that. Maryville doesn’t need me yelling at the television this weekend. The couch can have the day off.

Does SEC strength, up-down nature of the league influence your view of Heupel? I voted No, just win on SPORTS SOURCE. What's your vote? SPORTSSOURCE.TV/POLLS

The Vols play in Columbia tomorrow at 3:30. I will be on the couch in Maryville, same as always. That is about as close as I am getting. It works for me.

Thursday. Nobody from the Army called. That counts as a good morning. The bird at the feeder has a tighter schedule than I do. I’m in Maryville. He can have the yard.

Wednesday. The Harley is in the driveway looking at me like I owe it something. I don’t. Coffee already clocked in. Maryville can wait.

It’s Tuesday. Somebody will say thank you for your service like they found a coupon. I already did the service. I’m in Maryville. The coffee is the assignment today.

Monday. The yelling stopped. Alabama went home. Coffee in Maryville. The week can take a number.

Alabama. 3:30. Neyland. I’m in Maryville. The couch is the seat I actually have. I’ll yell from here.

Thirteen soldiers at Fort Hood. An Army major did it. Seventeen years later they approved the firing squad. I wore that uniform. This should not have taken this long.

Still in the driveway. Thrashin risers and the mid-bend bar off the 2025 Road Glide. $375 cash. Maryville. I am not shipping. Fits a 2024-up Road Glide. A Street Glide needs the adapter plate, and I don’t have it. Will not fit a 2023 or older bike. Here through Tuesday. After that they are locked up until the 17th.

Off my 2025 Road Glide. Thrashin 9.5 pullback risers and mid-bend bars. Shoulders voted them off. $375 cash. Maryville driveway. I am not shipping. They bolt to a 2024-up Road Glide. Street Glide needs the adapter plate. That plate is not in this deal. I am here through Tuesday. After that the set is locked up until October 17.

It’s pouring in Maryville. Bike week’s last morning and the Harley is staying put. New bars don’t need a bath. Auburn’s at 3:30. I’ll be on the couch for that anyway. The rain just moved it up

The new bars got their first morning. They did not file a complaint. My shoulders did that yesterday and then shut up. Bike week is almost done. Maryville goes back to being a town. I will miss the noise. I will not miss the traffic.

New bars on the Harley today at The Shed. @KST_Kustoms installed them during Smoky Mountain Bike Week. My shoulders noticed before I got out of the lot. Huge difference. Thank you. Maryville. I live here and I am still impressed.

Coffee is poured. The Harley is pointed at bike week like it pays rent. I live here. The out-of-town riders get the vacation. I get the driveway and the same mountains.

The Harley woke up before I did. Bike week will do that. Maryville. Day five. I am still not posting the schedule. My knees voted no and lost.

I woke up in my own town during bike week. That still feels like cheating. Coffee, then the Harley. I am not posting the schedule. The dealership already has a website.
