Exclamation Saturday Ride
Yes, believe it or not I actually took a weekend off! Looking for a ride Saturday, maybe go up and see the Camel. I know lots of you still have kissing the camel on your bucket list. Or if anyone else has any ideas I am open to suggestions. NEEEEED to get out a bit!

And, as usual, I have to work Saturday.

I guess when someone coined the term "bankers hours" that banks weren't open on Saturdays. That's really the only downside about this job though....

Doing the Road To Health poker run for the Shriner's Hospital that starts A Kahuna's in St. Pete and winds up at the Tilted Kilt in Clearwater. Hopefully we have half decent weather. Ride safe!!

That a possibility, but we were hoping to get out of town for a day. Get away from the crowds. Be safe and dress warm!

No problem Gator, I think we are gonna sleep in a bit and head out as it warms up. Just gonna throw a stick in the air and take off where ever it points. Of course with our luck it will point west and we will have a 3 minute ride Be safe maybe next time.

When using the stick method and it points West just use the other end of the stick as the indicator. My bike is in the shop or I would head your way.

No! Not the shop! I hope its nothing to serious (expensive). I took mine in for a tapping sound last week, and while I am hesitant to admit it, it was the stupid air vent on the lower fairing slapping against the fairing. Luckily I figured it out in the parking lot and left before making to big a fool out of myself. It had been tapping for weeks and I couldn't find it then a moment of clarity struck.
