Today started out I was going to just start the bikes while the Honda fired right up took some time for the America to fire to life,but after petting it and whispering sweet nothings to it(god this bike has turned me into a very sick man)she fired up. You know its 34 out, driveways a little icy but what the heck. Let her warm up put on my leathers(wife looks at me like im nuts) put the helmet on and off we go.Nothing better then seeing some old lady in a cage looking at you like your out of your mind.Roads are clear air is crisp and the bike is running great.Man I miss riding every day. Run was so fun grabbed the wifes bike and took it for one not as fun but its still riding

Glad to hear you got to ride for a bit. Went for a ride myself this morning and it relaxed me enough to sit in front of the TV and watch this game later. Not to make you feel bad but I get to ride all year and it was 78 degrees today.

Good for you. My brother stopped by with his friend on his harley. His buddy had a ninja, fast and fun but very uncomfortable. I had a good time showing off in front of the neighborhood kids with that thing.
pain is temporary, pride is forever.

I hate all of you.  Just as I got the bike ready to go it started raining; now it's fog and rain so no ride today for me. harrumph.

I got to ride ride today but since I had to go to a tennis match I took my ride as a practice ride and went to the subdivision's parking lot (its shaped like a rounded corners rectangle). Need to work on my slow left turns

I put in some 30 miles today. Down to the highway, over to town and up the main drag. Out my road to where the pavement ends, down to the secondary highway. Took that to the paved road that deadends at the corner of the horse pasture and home again. Guess I should go to confession at the church of national football.

40 degrees here..put on my battery gerbings vest with long johns and went for 40 mile ride to my girls home and back..light snow flakes..nothing to worry about..warmed it up good and lubed chain when I got back..Had a guy in a 06 chevy take off fast at light..left him at 2nd light ..God I love the power and looks these bikes demand..a harley ultra classic pulled along side and was quite civil..not crazy to ride in this weather but it helps
life is good..I am retired..sold my America in 2008,bought a Rocket and sold that in 3/2013 and now own a new Triumph Bonneville T-100
