Glad Terrie has the garmin as she will have to lead our women's ride!!! Melanie

That's a great picture of you and Roger! Looks very familar up there.......Terrie and I might be riding that way later today.

The leg fairings......a piece of cake! You could surprise him.....go buy them and put them on yourself (really that simple) then when he sees them just act like "oh, it was nothing". LOL

I think it'll be just you and her on that ride. She keeps asking Soozie but it looks like Soozie is booked out for the next year. I can relate to that but I can squeeze an overnight weekend ride once in awhile. Anyway, I'm encouraging Terrie to go do it.......so what are you two waiting for?

Is it true you never wear the same pair of chaps twice? I've heard about women and their shoes but you're the first with more chaps than the law allows. LOL Seriously Melanie, your taste in style shows.........and that's a good thing!

LOL!!!! What can I say....Love the biker clothes. I have more biker clothes than regular clothes. When I started riding, I really got the bug!! Love being able to do something with Roger that we both enjoy....We can just take off by ourselves and have the best times!!!

Thanks for the pic compliment...We loved riding through Yosemite! I'm sure we will do it a few more times this year! You two will have to join us!

As for our girls ride...I'm definitely up for it...I can work around almost any weekend...so send me Terrie's email and phone number and I will give her a call soon and figure it out. I did a girls ride (4 of us) last year down to San Luis, (the coast all the way) and we had a blast!!! The guys ended up meeting us on Sunday on our way back in San Juan Baustista for lunch....just a fantastic weekend!

Enjoy your ride today. Wish we were riding...but Roger is helping a friend move today in Jackson and of course my bike is down. Hopefully it will be all together this week!!!

Back to the Street Glide changes........

Had a chance today to get some shots of the bike with the HD Painted Air Cleaner. We put 220 miles on today........

Oh yea, I also replaced the gas door lock with the push button, when we got back. See......never done with them.

Great job but "almost done" in my case it's usually an oxymoron as it never ends lol.

These are sweet and add a nice touch of chrome to the inner fairing. Would look great on your bike!

I'll send you a pm...but I'm sure we will be ready for a ride this Saturday. Roger just put my inner fairing and HW speakers on last night and it looks awesome since it was painted. I'm sure he will be done by Saturday....can't wait to ride!! Melanie
