I replaced the lights once on it already for him but I don't feel like repacking/replacing the bearings. Whenever possible I prefer to have my own of whatever I need versus borrowing. |

Yup, always better to have your own... whatever-it-is... even if you do have to fix the brakes. Or not.

I'm thinking of a ride over toward N GA. The British bikes are invading there this weekend. Might turn south to Helen, and come up through some awesome roads back into NC.

Yeah fine, just a few bruises. Bent the shifter, limped it in 1st to MrI's work and he fixed it up for me, shifts better than ever now. Just a slight misjudgment of the road surface is all it took.  Glad to hear you OK and that the accident made the bike better . . . yup, ego is usually hit the hardest . . . Evening Ducatters  Sorry about Cat, Rat Whats a drip edge... is the gable end trim? You alive? read somewhere you had died? . . . You for real or a zombie now? Hey RAT, Sorry about Cat TiNi, yes in dp years it was ... yesterday?  No getting Gina wet . . . it hasn't stopped raining for more than 5 minutes here . . . it seems like if it was 1900h already, it's that dark outside . . . Can the admins contact me at my email? please ! ! ! wanna do some biz . . . |

It is, but I've not gotten started yet because I had to deliver a lawnmower I had repaired.

A short bit from yesterday trying the new camera angle.
Never had been on this road before so I just poked along.

nice! that camera angle makes the front tire look dinky being right next to the pod filters makes the engine sound so noisy too. Makes it sound almost like it's a dry clutch. My wife wants me to do the camera pointing backwards next. |
