Im a genius.

Its not my parents proudest moment.

Update: 32 miles total… apparently a husband must wait 2 hours at the dentist for his forgotten disc lock keys to be brought. It also meant I got to fill her gas tank…she declined being taken out for diner.

Note to Husbands: Do not forget your disc lock keys.
I bet if the table was turned and the shoe was on the other foot you would still be in the doghouse for not being there as promptly as expected. I pity guys in that situation. Makes me think of how blessed I am with my wife. I am going to squeeze her.

Nah.. It’s all in good fun. Mrs. Rains is cool. She gave me grief, but not too much. It took her about two hours to get there but it was an hours drive for her to go to the house retrieve the keys then drive to where my dentist is. She probably fed the dogs and took them out before coming to where I was.

I got off work last night and took the bike out for about 30 miles. It wasn't much, but it was enough to put a smile on my face.

107'ish. defiantly more than a 100 but less than 110.
I have come to the conclusion this motor is not stock it gets to 115mph way to easy and keeps pulling then I remember I'm old and back off.
