Afternoon gents. Amazing day out, but I find myself a bit listless. Was going to go for a ride but just not feeling it. A very filling brunch isn't helping. Riding the couch currently.

Same here Bob.

Went over to the street this morning after coffee to clean up the mess, came home, had a couple of eggs and lay down to read and that was that, 2 hr+ nap.....

Gonna stretch out, read some more then fire up the Shovel this afternoon, probably ride that and Pearl, aka Mrs Page 23.

Must be contagious, Bob. I had every good intention of going for a ride. Currently settled in watching Sherri's Patrick Mahomes' v. Stan's Pillagers.

Got off my *** and took the Shovel on a long ride. She has issues. Rear disc brake is locking up. Last winter I flushed the brake fluids, and cleaned and scrubbed the rear master cylinder, which was horrific. Flushed the system till it was new, so going to have to take the rear brake apart and find out whats going on. Really need to pull the rear wheel and check the bearings and other stuff as well.

Then took Pearl out. She's running fantastic other than her comp is going out. That has to be replaced. May pull the oil tank and replace the starter as well while it's on the lift. No time now, both of these will be November projects.

We had a very nice ride up to Crystal River. We stopped at the Harley dealership got a gasket then proceeded on to Kelley's for some oysters. A couple hundred miles of fun.
