Supposed to clear up this morning...Nam Knight show is still going on as planned. I'm not going, the fog is so thick by me now, gonna take a while before it burns off, and roads dry out. If my road(mud pit) dries out early enough, I'll be out this afternoon doing the cruise thing probably starting at Big Johns, then so on....

You aint gonna melt. I would rather get wet than put 90 bucks of gas in the truck.
I'd rather put $90 worth of chrome on my bike than get wet.....


I'm not going to get all pissy over a lost weekend of riding. It's early spring in New England, it's raining, and it's the nature of the beast....

I got out yesterday. Later in the day me and my buddy 20Nighttrain03 (Glenn) took a ride along Rt. 36 through Sea Bright, Highlands, Atlantic Highlands, etc. Stopped at Mt. Mitchell and saw the NYC skyline (or at least tried to, very hazy).

If there's no rain next Sunday, I want to take a ride up to High Point like someone here suggested a few weeks ago.

I just asked "if we have anything going on" next Sunday and the immediate response (along with look of dis-belief) was "IT'S MOTHER'S DAY" Oops. I'm out but would love to do a NW NJ run soon.

Well then, let's do a bit of planning and get it going. If I can swing it, I'd love to join up somewhere along the line.

It's looking more and more like another crummy Sunday for riding. Wish I didn't have to work on Saturday. [:'(]
