We just got another imprompteau 5" yesterday, and i was out driving around in most of it. This blows.

Even worse, my RK is in storage at a friend's place, I haven't even seen it since the end of November. I have a Corbin classic solo/pilion/backrest, a guardian bell, and docking point covers I want to throw on it in the worst way.

Come on spring...

We have the same pipes, so it was great to hear your bike! -12C here today, although we're getting more chinooks (like the Santa Ana winds) that warm things up, so will be 45F at the end of this week. Can't ride due to the sand and wet on the roads, but spring is coming....

Thanks for the reminder!

Thumbs up Fishtails !!

Thank you for the perfectly timed Video!! My V&H Fishtails are in the mail along with a new AC and Fueler. Also reminds me of the last time I was in San Diego. I remember our perfect day is their everyday. SC

It's official El Rey, you are a passive aggressive cyber bully! The only thing I have to look forward to today is the Packers crushing the Steelers. Go Pack!!

Fired up my ride and rode the 31 miles into work this morning. It was a balmy 28 degrees F. The cold is not going to keep me off of it, however; ice and snow causes it to have a mind of its own and I will leave it in the garage. And by the way, I do love San Diego. Spent many, many nights and weeks in Lemon Grove.

Just what I needed --- another smart *** making everyone else feel real bad about where they're livin' --- well it worked! Send me real estate classifieds from sunny southern California -- by the way you can hand deliver them if you want to -- I have another snow shovel that you can use when you get here to southeast Michigan.
P.S. I hope you get a sunburn !!

No, Master Guns, I wasn't. I only did my four and left. I got out as a Corporal. Wish I stayed in, but have plenty of brothers who did.

I know about those Chinooks, I'm originally from back East.

Hey, talk about bold riders guys, I saw dudes in Salt Lake City the other week riding and it was no ****, 14 degrees!

Hope the snow melts soon for all ya'll.

I couldn't take it anymore, after fixing my snowblower (apparently the exhaust fell off last time it was used...) and taking care of the driveway again, I broke out one of the dirt bikes. Bet you fairweather guys wish you could ride around in these awesome conditions.

Hey, Thanks for the thought. The only handle bar time I get is behind the blower. What is that green stuff off the right side of your drive?
