Didn't quite go that far Mud but damn, I really enjoyed the
miles I did put on her. Much more healthy engine and them
Rineharts really cackle now. Definite thunder under me now.
Tomorrow, if the weather is as good as they're saying (50° weather),
I'm gonna get a 100-150 miles on her. Wanna get it broke in so I can
get the dyno done.

Keith

Mud - wife and I just got back from a very short jaunt to lunch and Caliente - she's got health problems so can't get out much, but today was great: not too hot. She really had a great time. From your forecast, next week is looking OK for my ride to work. As usual, will have to check the morning of!

Can't say I've ever ridden in negative temps. The coldest I've ridden here in San Antonio was 25 last year. The wind chill at 70mph pushes it lower, but not negative. Fingers were burning by the time I got to work, even through thick leather, thinsulate lined gloves.

sarge, good to hear you and the wife could cash in on the beautiful day.
Weather here was damn near perfect for ridin.

Looks like next week will be more of the same.

CalienteHD. They picked an appropriate name.
Rode out to Javelina, that's my favorite local dealer,
but they are all good.

Had a looksee at the new CrossBones. Black.
I like it. Lots of potential.

Did you see one at Caliente?? What color??

TAR, knowing that you are in Scotland,
I think you probably meant that very literally.

Yeah, it was definately nice today. Better yesterday but I was being lazy and just finished up (almost) my 20k inspection. Went for a short test ride, but only about 5 miles. We went to Caliente because I got my wife an orange tank top there for Christmas, but it was too small - she thanked me for guessing her size too small...We've been to Javelina a few times too - will have to pop in there one weekend and see if I catch you. Told her you were the one that did the artwork on the Aztec and she was impressed. Reminds me I need to cruise by there - damn I've been lazy lately...

Haven not seen the new cross-bones other than in that video someone posted. Nice looking ride though. Will have to see one in person. Now if they would just put a 21" front wheel on it...
