Yeah I just walked outside of work to look over my bike (paranoid last week had some arseface park 6" away from it). So far only me and now the guy with a ducati rode in. (Which is strange cause I think his other bike is a goldwing.)

It was around 40 when I rode in but knowing it would be in the 60s in the afternoon made my frozen hands not matter.

It started out around 50 this morning when I left home for the dmv. Got to be in the low 60's while I was taking my road skills test. Should be in the 70's when I get out of work.

But I'm now free and clear to enjoy my sportster (legally) whenever I want! Today's a good day.

Suppose to be a high of 71 in Pendleton! Can't wait to go for a cruise!!! I've still got about 400 miles of break in to get done. Hopefully I can get it done this weekend!

I couldn't ride to work today.......as I have to pick my daughter up from school right after work. Plus the beer keg kicked and I can't get a new one of those strapped onto the bike. It's sunny and suppose to hit Low 70's.
