Looks like another baking day Saturday too.... debating where I should ride too.. Hmmm?

BoomerBob, that's a cool windshield on that nightrain... where can I find something like that?

Oh yeah fellas, where else can you ride practically all year 'round in the connected 48? Guessing San Diego area.

Yeah Primo, speaking of Paradise.. I had a hard time keeping my eyes on the road... I think only after a good rain can one see ALL of SoCal from mountains to ocean and everything in between.... that smog gets washed and blown away... at least for a day or two.

yup .it was 94 degrees here around 4pm......I'm sure it was hotter around 1pm......and to think about all the bikes that are going into storage for the winter. But then again there is a guy that lives near me and he rarely rides his bike and I mean rarely. He needs to be bitch slapped

Thanks. It's a Tombstone available through Drag Specialties. If you buy it through M & M Cycle it's under $70 delivered.

Thanks BoomerBob, I just might get something like that for my iron horse.

Yeah SeniorChief, I've just had my bike for 5 weeks and already clocked 2k miles.... some never get that in a year or worse.... why the heck get it if you're not gonna use it?

BE SAFE OUT THERE EVERYBODY, hope to run in to y'all sumtime. I'll surely be hittin' Laughin' Laughlin in April again next year.

Sorry to the folks stuck in the cold... I'll be thinkin' and ridin' for ya brothers!

Yea, this weather is just fine, if you don't have to work out in it.
Fullerton always seems to have the same temps as Riverside.
