Home prices here are CHEAP!......don't be skeered......Live in the woods like me and do whatever you want to do whenever you want to do it.....Walk out back n shoot yer guns....set the woods on fire....have your friends over and get loud!...No,I mean LOUD!.....I live on the hwy but I have 120 acres behind my house where I can act the animal and no one notices or cares.

...and I agree.....40-50 is great for riding.

your down there in LA,where abouts? I lived in Biloxi for a couple years & loved it,my Dad was a floor boss for the Magic Casino till they transfered him up to Tupalo to open a new casino. Here we only have a couple months where riding is slim to none which isn't to bad,just glad I'm still not in Upper Michigan trying to ride

16 degrees at lunch time but the snow and ice were finally gone so the kickstand came up. HELL, by 5 o-clock it was up to 23... We're suppose to have a heat wave this weekend and its suppose to be in the mid-40's... I'm thinking road trip. I think that I missed about 5 days with our last Ice/snow storm... Anywhichwho, there's always guitar hero.
