Loved CHiPs, Airwolf, Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazard... all were great shows.
Now we've got the damn Bachelor and all the related crap that my girl makes me suffer through. What happened to good TV?

We all meet at my place before our Saturday morning rides and before we head out we actually play the themesong to CHiPs......it doesn't last that long but I keep it playing in my head the whole ride through......I really wish they never tried dragging it out for those last two seasons or so......I mean, it was all about Ponch and John and even the Sarge was a staple figure.....but once all the newbies started coming in the shit just fell apart.....Poor Estrada had his days as a Sapnish soap star and even his appearance on the Surreal Life made us remember the nice guy Ponch he played....but now I see the man selling vacant pieces of realty in the middle of nowhere.......we all need to standup and support the Television and movie stars who formed us into who we are today and not let them fade out on infomercials. As a matter of fact I think we should band together and hold a ride in honor of CHiPs and everything it stood for.....everyine could puton the khaki tight assed pants and shirts along with some kneehigh boots, one of those golden lids and the aviator sunglasses.....it would be quite the ride.....who's with me?
