The drive into work this morning was interesting. Norfolk looks like a bomb went off with all the storming going on. It was hard to see the road in places for all the leaves & branches. All the garbage containers set out last night for this mornings pick up had been knocked over by the wind. Tree branches down on Kalanianaole leading to Castle Hospital. Three cop cars on the side with lights on and a police pick up truck with a ramp. The star of the show..... police BMW facing the wrong way looking like it was going to loaded into the truck. Solo rider fall down & go boom?? No lights working at the Castle Hospital junction, no lights on the Pali all the way up & through the tunnels. Branches and leaves all over the Pali Hwy and trees fallen over on the Pali down at the bottom of 13 turns. Trees, as in the whole tree and plural as in more than one.  Pretty wicked over on my side last night and this morning.......... Hope you can get that cleaned up before Sunday's ride...  |

Hope you can get that cleaned up before Sunday's ride... so mac is responsible for norfolk, n jing is taking care of 13 turns? LOL last night was no joke though. the branches of the trees next to our house broke off. woke us up. HFD came around 5ish and cleared the road, so ppl could go to work. for sure there's damage to one car's roof. i found roofing shingles in the drive way this morning. it was pretty nuts watching the storm going full blast at 3am, with no lights. palm trees were pretty funny, they looked like someone was pulling all their leaves together. |

Looks like it may be drying out some. The roads were still wet on our side this morning but at least you could see stars.
On another note for possible upcoming rides this weekend the Pali Hwy is closed townbound from 8pm (?) Friday night until 3am Monday morning. That means all return traffic goes around Makapuu or over Likelike or H3 ......... there will likely be an increased presence of po-po on H3. My bet anyway. Weather permitting I'll be riding the 848 into work on Sat and I'll take H3.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

at least there's warning. i'm hearing the info on the radio all day long. btw anyone have state farm insurance. we're trying to get all our vehicles on one policy. supposedly state farm doesn't offer under insured or uninsured on their motorcycle policies. just wanted to confirm that it's true. |

Hubbie should get some pretty good rates through GEICO while on the island.

Interesting. GEICO was quite a bit cheaper for me while I was there.
