Almost Over . . .
Winter hibernation here in North Dakota is just about over, and I'm slowly, but surely starting to wake up from it. We haven't had too much snow, so far, but the weather did get cold as a witches tit in a brass bra. It got to -55 degrees with the windchill. It stayed right around there for a few weeks too!
The bike's been sitting in the garage, all winterized, and is now protected by the grill, and snowblower. I can't wait for another month or two, and she'll be out and about.
I hope all of you have been doing well while I had my slumber.

RE: Almost Over . . .
Jake - Winters been treating me alright. We've just been doing some stuff around the house that we've been putting off. There's still a bunch more to do. It seems like it never ends. Not too much of anything to report on the bike. The wifey just got a job, so with some of that extra income, I think I'll be able to do some of the stuff, on the bike, that I've been putting off: forward controls; directional relocation; maybe a seat; some cosmetic crap; etc. How was your time back home? I don't think I ever got an update on that? Also, when are you looking at getting out of there again? Hopefully soon!
Doug - I CAN NOT wait until July! Ahhh, 90 degree days . . .
70mach1 - Yeah, we got about 6-8 inches the other day, and today it's suppose to be about 35. Buuuuut, here it doesn't last...going to get back around -25 next week! Might as well start stocking up on the cold medicine now ;-(
Glad to hear from all of you. I wasn't sure if you all would see this post or not. I hope you all are doing well.
