Me too, but at least it's a ride.

Some things just don't seem right.

Does it seem to you at times Stan glosses over our posts waiting for better folks to sit on the other end of the bench?

I've given thought to the image of the 3 of us on a bench and there's an empty spot. Forget I mentioned that.

@Imold - The TW200 is a great bike. Yes, they really hold their value. Seems a 1998 bike costs the same as a 2014 bike. I wanted to get one for Cheryl so she could join me on some off pavement adventures and she declined. I suspect we are both better off for it.

Well it is cool out and misting. My riding buddy has a boat with battery issues. Think I'll head to his cottage around 1 to help him look at it. I know nothing about boats, but figure I can look at battery, connections, follow some wiring and look for any broken wires, frayed wires, bat or loose grounds, etc. He says he put new battery in and he can't charge and it won't start. So cursory looks and a beer to see if I can help.
Have a nice ride Chris....and watch for the idiots. Especially those with "round" head who know not of what they speak! (yeah, read his post about passenger foot pegs, and all the other garbage he spews!)
