Lady friend is here and watching (trying to, complaining there's not much on) that wedding thing in England. I just find things to do in other parts of the house and garage. I wonder why Brits don't toss the freeloaders out of the castle, and certainly don't understand why Americans have any interest in a defunct monarchy they went to war against to get rid of.

Hi Al. Wondering if I should make more room in the garage by letting someone else enjoy a Ural. Except for looking like something an old lady might have, the Honda has it beat in every way. Well, not in snow, but I didn't get a single snow ride this past winter anyway.

That's what I ran into last year. Guy that bought it is having a blast. He was looking at getting another one for his son. Honda may have it beat except for the "cool" factor. Tough to beat a URAL!...Mine never got to see snow with me or the previous owner in Florida. I have to believe the new owner had it out in snow this past year. I'm pretty happy with it's replacement..Heritage Springer.

I'm gonna have to setup the sidecar alignment on the Honda, though, drives fine, don't notice it moving, but parked, the bike leans noticeably to the right, can't be good. One thing about it that puzzles me, I'm pretty sure this is the fastest stopping bike I've ridden, I mean it really hauls down to zero hard, with no brake on the sidecar, and it doesn't pull to the right. Not complaining about that of course, just seems strange.

Well the canvas of the pop up has been scrubbed down. Taking a break then I'll detail the inside. A lot more work than a travel trailer.

Same here.
Daisy was here and she watched the royal wedding live, then the post wedding coverage, and the rerun of the wedding for good measure.

Thank god I locked up the guns

Well the camper is completely detailed inside and out! Almost time to button her up! Won't be camping for a few months.
