It was a beautiful day in eastern PA today, with a cloudless blue sky & mostly dry & clear roads. It's always nice to start the new year off right with a good ride...

Bah Humbug!
It's cold and bleeding wet here...in Kent UK......lightened by the memory of a good night last night with a few friends.....planned some runs for next year.
First new year for some time that I've not been home to Scotland for Hogmanay....
Home being Dunbar on the east coast.....this time of year I can almost feel the place.....boats swinging on their harbour moorings and the pub sign swinging in the wind at the Volunteer Arms....
Tunbridge Wells is no substitute.
Roll on spring.
I took the Road Less Travelled.
Now where the ****** am I?

color me jealous 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Well I WOULD have been riding yesterday, AND today, but the Indian quit on me. Fuel pump, I think. Spent New Years eve trucking it up to the dealer. Bummer, as it was forty degrees and I normally ride in that temperature. Only posting this to remark that my AMERICA never quit me even ONCE during my ownership and 50 K. On my Indian, I've had warranty replace a belt drive system, an electronic brain, a generator and now, at 55 K, a fuel pump. I suppose that is within reasonable limits for this many miles, and I'm not really complaining since the warranty will cover it and I do love this bike. Still, by comparison, my Triumph was a better bike!
