Good morning Woodmiesters,
Going to be trekking back north today.
Enjoy every day folks...... early email this morning advises that our CEO passed away Saturday. He was nearing retirement age but I didn't know he had any health issues. Not much information was shared. Just spoke with him last week. Go figure.

Doing the 4 day VT trip next week with 4 GeritolBrigade guys and then another 3 or 4 days around NH, lake Champlain, and St Lawrence for 3 or 4 days. The trip I was s'posed to do 2 years ago when I got the Weebles.Figure 2500 -3000 miles. Shouldn';t be a problem on these tires, but feel the same way you do.May as well put new ones on, guy charged me 4 $100 bills out the door with DynaBeads and all I had to do was drop the bike off.
