A very nice ride, Mick. Felt good to be out in the sun and wind. No ride today, rain on the way.

Off to shuffle. BBL&L.

Good morning shufflers and those who burden our great system.

All that aside, BMW doesn't make a bike for a 5'-4" 120# woman. Not without lowering it anyway. Moto Guzzi, on the other hand, makes a bunch of bikes that are perfect for a woman. Think HD XG750 but way cooler. And they are far more reliable than many people realize.

If nothing else, you don't see Moto Guzzis that often but you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a BMW.

I'm out of the game with feet under the seat pegged bike anyways....frigging thighs start to cramp........getting old sucks.....
