Absolutely beautiful today, a bit windy but who cares? Bike is running great & am having a blast just running around town wasting fossil fuel.

Well it was nice while lasted. Temps just dropped 15 degrees in about 1/2 hr. Clouds are coming in & it looks like our day is just about done. Might get in another quick ride before the sun drops.

60 felt like 84 to us for the short time we had it. I must have seen 100 bikes out riding around with lots of happy riders.

Supposed to be crummy for the next week tho.

Yea 62 here today too. Would have liked to ride the XB but at the dealer for wheelbearing upgrade. So I got the VFR out of the garage and rode. IT WAS WINDY! Oh well I rode in Daytona so now I can't wait for riding weather in Illinois, and to ride the Buell again. Weather here already 36 degrees and falling.... Spring is coming?

So, Dyna-
Did you have any trouble staying on the road? My M2 was all over the place! Especially when I'd hit the open fields. It WAS fun though!

Court-
As psycho as this sounds, I really miss that stuff. I haven't seen any good winter weather in four years. All we get down in Louisiana, (and here, for that matter) is rain. Snow would kick ass... I could go skiing, have snowball fights, go do donuts in the parking lot in my truck...

Man, what fun snow is.

Nah, the roads are dry & clear. We had quite a bit of rain so it washed all the nasty stuff away.

Well, Court, I wouldn't trade commutes with you! It was really nice at El Ranchito Chingadero this weekend. 85 and sunny, two sweet-running Buells in the garage, and I spent the weekend WORKING MY BUTT OFF BUILDING A STUPID DECK!!!

springtime at the ranch...

There ain't no justice in the world. But we enjoyed a couple of nice cocktails while we sat on the deck and watched the sun go down.

Also, please notice the beautiful blooming dogwood in the background!

How are yer RT

Thats not a deck this is a deck Oz style. I used 6,200 feet of 3" decking timber to go around the beach house last year, best investment I ever made was a colated screw gun bit like a nail gun but shoots 2 1/2 inch galvinised screws only used 9,600 to hold it all down.

Paul: Doing fine, mate. My hand's sore, though, I've been driving screws with an electric drill all weekend!

Congratulations on your salt adventure! Trust you stayed out of trouble this time?
