Good morning all. Just a couple of days of work then my sister arrives from Oklahoma. I have not seen here in 2-3 years so I am looking forward to her arrival. I will take time off while she is here. I hope the storm does not delay or cancel the flight. It is nice out this morning but it will change later today. Winds and rain, so what else is new in the summer around here. Everyone ride safe.

Back to shuffle tomorrow.
I can’t wait to hear next year, how far your snowblower can hurl the stones. Your neighbor will think he’s under attack .

Re-mornin to all you late bloomers. Gettin ready to shove the fuglybike out and do some kubbing before it gets too hot....Posetago into the 90's today. Yesterday was "wildlife day"....did about 150 miles or so all by meself and had more animal encounters than I could imagine....I stayed in the woods most of the time and had a total of 7 deer cross in front of me....one decided to stop in the middle of the road and stare!! Aso, had 2 black bears cross the road in 2 different locations. I was surprised to see the 1st one...about a 100 lb yearling......and was absolutely shocked to see the 2nd one about an hour later. 2nd one was a little bigger but still a yearling I believe. Always a thrill to see bear in the wild. Also had a momma wild turkey followed by her brood of around a dozen small chicks that I had to stop for so they could all get safely across.
It would have been a great day to have had a "go-pro" attached to the bike.
y'all have a great day and I'll BBL.

Be safe out there Doc, I too am seeing a lot of whitetail deer either in , or right next to the road as I pass. When I bought the King in 14, I went on a “ new owners ride with the owner of the dealership and the management to Mackinaw City. On our way , the guy riding point had a couple of deer run right in front of him, I was glad I was three or four bikes back .

Currently in Lynchburg, TN at at the Jack Daniel's distillery for the tour. I'm a Jack Daniel's drinker so I'm super excited!

Chris, it appears you have been forgiven and all is well with Tanya (like Tucker). She is smiling ever so slightly.
EDIT: Actually that's a big sh** eating grin ........ how did you accomplish that anyway ?
