Wow, that hypnotism stuff really works!

Anyone know if the road is clear?  Maybe next weekend?

Crap, wish I had time to ride up there and check for ya...  Work is nutty this week, and my weekend is booked with vehicle maintenance and my brother's college graduation.

I still see small patches of snow on north-facing peaks that are around or over 3000 feet, but otherwise it's clear.  I think it's a safe bet the road surface is clear of frozen stuff, but you'll want to be wary of gravel.

Maybe wait a little longer than.  I'd like it to be a carefree ride for everyone.  Maybe Viktor will have his new toy soon Smiley

I took the liner out of my jacket this morning and I wasn't even cold.  Summer is here!

Keep your silly astronomical dates to yourself.  The liner's out of the jacket so it's summer as far as I'm concerned Smiley

I've been commuting daily this week in my non-perforated leather jacket, but without the thermal liner.  Not too cold, just have to keep the wind out in the mornings.  Today it'll be too warm in the afternoon for a non-perf'd jacket, so I wore a Columbia wind/rain shell over my perf'd Ducati jacket for the cooler morning ride, but I'll be enjoying the breeze this afternoon. Wink

Speaking of commuting... I've saved approximately $19.75 in commuting costs since June 1st by riding the Cagiva.  Grin  Two more round trips to work and it'll have paid for its insurance for the month.

Now that you got rid of all the rotating weight that thing must be fast!

Hey, you got any fully functioning motorcycles now or are you just running a parts shop?

Mornin' my old friends (some older than others... heh)... Was trolling for what it'd take to do the 12K min service on Cara and voila, ended up here... Smiley 

Oh and I don't wanna hear about cold weather riding, it's in the 30's on my way to work, in the 70's on my way home here in Central Oregon.. heh
