Put 2500+ miles on the bike since I bought it in Early April. [sm=biker.gif]

This week I am paying for it, Tuesday and Wednesday are the only full sun days, the rest of the week is on and off rain.

Here in Missouri, we must get bikes inspected in April. Well, not a dry day in April, and so far, none in May either. Now both bikes have expired tags and I still can't see a decent day through the 10-day forecast...... incredible.

Not only the most rain but also the coldest Springhere in Maryland that I can remember.I bought my 08 Heritage in October 2007 and I only have 1500 miles on it. Did have a knee replacement that kept me from riding the few daysthat were fit to ride. Tuesday & Wednesday this weeklook pretty good for a ride.I guess we will be complaining about the heat in a few months.
