This rain is intense. It is going to rain until Wednesday. Wow, almost like real weather. I went the last 4 years to the show in Long Beach. I took this year off.

Nice and clean. I felt like a mouse in a maze going through the show.

Amazing... someone from out-of-state calling us BROTHERS!

I have to admit, the Honda concept bagger really looked awesome. I doubt we'll ever see it in production, at least not in that form.

I did something I've been wanting to do for the last couple of years, at the show. Harley has a demonstration where they let anyone pick up a downed Sportster. There wasn't much of a crowd so I did it. It couldn't believe how easy it was using that technique. There are videos of it online but if you ever get a chance to do it at a show, take advantage of the opportunity. It was nice to try it on somebody else's bike!

Yeah we get spoiled here in Cali with all year riding. Has been pretty wet here though. I need to stop being cheap and go buy some rain gear as well. Patriot Guard missions don't wait for good weather.
