Got tags for the pickup and one bike today, first thing I remembered when I got in the warm truck was the ac leak... Got some 80s starting tomorrow, that ac is first on the list in the morning before it gets hot, a can should do it. Next week should have some nice riding days, might have to use a Honda for a little while but that's better than nothing. At least it can haul groceries and gardening supplies.

Yesterday had the 1 1/2 year old switched for the 3 and 6. The terrorist in training 3 year old behaved pretty good with no messes for the first time, and granddaughter said my house is cold. Last time she'll say that for a long time, the ac will be on tomorrow. Hope it doesn't repeat the truck experience when I turn it on.

Good evening all. I bought a leather jacket from a guy on this forum. I have lost so much weight that mine are too big. You guys may have seen the thread. He is in Florida but quite a ways south of here. I message to see where he was at in Florida and sent him my cell number. I was hoping he was nearby so I could try it on and avoid shipping if it fit. He was too far away for that but he agreed to send it to me to try on. I agreed to pay the shipping both ways if I had to send it back. I was pretty sure it would fi and it did. I sent him the money electronically. Nice to know there are trusting people in this world. Nice jacket and sort of reminds my of my flight jacket I had in when I was in the Navy. I out grew it years ago but still have it.

Good looking jacket. I have an old Avirex bomber jacket that looks a lot like that one.

I like that aged look.

Here is my original. It's the real thing. I can't wear a 44 these days or I would still be wearing it. I hang onto it just in case I get that small again.

Evening gents! I was spot on about the "bike night". Exactly 8 nerds and their sport bikes talking about God knows what. Walked in Cycle Gear, looked around, walked out, road home. It was still nice to get a ride in. A bit brisk but sunny.
