Early afternoon "golf on TV and Happy Hour". I did mow the front yard and did some other chores. So now I relax with an ice cold Shiner Bock

We’ll I’ve been hit a half a dozen times in the face today by flying critters , first one was a giant dragon fly , the last was a bee (that managed to get this last sting in ) . Worse part is I have a pull down shield in this new helmet (I just wasn’t using it)

Yeah, I sat down at the 'puter to do some catching up, been a while.

That, my friend, is a fine looking motorcycle. Were I to go the bagger route, this would be a template, for sure. Maybe a pic of the other side?

Between the heat and the rain/flooding hereabouts, haven't got much riding in. That said, Monday we're riding up to Woodstock, NH, to meet up with some folks from FL that we haven't seen in, well, decades. The WX is only for scattered T-storms, haha, so we'll pack the rain gear.

Ride safe!

Hey, PB. Long time, no see. I figure you've probably had enough rain up that way to last a while.

Oh, yeah, plenty of rain. We've had it relatively easy around my neck o' the woods compared to the folks in VT next door, though. That's a real sh!tshow there. When it isn't quite warm and raining, its just plain hot these last couple weeks. I'm not freaking out like some, though. It is JULY, in NH, fer cryin' out loud! It takes me a week to acclimate, then I'm usually good to go.

Just had a thunder storm pass through. Now it is just raining HARD. Tomorrow looks better, might get out after church.

This week, I hope to install a Jagg oil cooler. Anyone have any tips, other than um, follow the directions? I've unboxed it and it seems pretty straight forward.

Keep the shiny side up....

Use plenty of Loc-Tite on the filter mount collet. It will come loose if you don’t.
