Default Yeah - Good Luck With That!

Snow's got to melt first, followed by fairly extensive rain, street sweepers and A LOT of pothole repairs before I'd even think about going out for a spin! I lost a front tire on my car this past Saturday to a pothole.

In regards to your signature -

IT IS BETTER TO HAVE TRIED AND FAILED,
THEN TO NEVER HAVE TRIED AT ALL.


If you try to soon, you may not get another chance to fail! Enjoy your ride and stay safe brother!

This winter tore the roads up pretty bad here. I can't recall so many bad pot holes, even the suburbs of Westchester took a big hit.....with municipal budgets stretched thin with salt and snow removal I can only hope they have money to repair our roads, If not it's gonna be a ruff ride this spring and summer.

Yup the clock is ticking, the new apes, speakers, pods, clutch .... all about done. All I need is some clean road and some decent weather.

Its not looking like I'm going to be doing any riding this March except maybe something short toward the end of the month...but..As soon as the weather warms up into the 40's I plan to get my bike out of storage and get this pile of goodies I collected over the winter installed.

Going to be awhile before I can ride at home. Kids said several feet of snow on the ground and temps were 0 last week and not a whole heck of a lot warmer this week. That said, I did ride here in Florida this afternoon. Was going to ride in the AM but the darn battery was sown. Will check it in the morning and if it's down, off the HD for a new one.
