Did a nice 150 mile ride through the nearby ranges country with some mates today. Came back through some deserted back farm roads that wind through hills and National Parks. Sitting on 60-70 mph, the bike running absolutely beautifully, just carburating perfectly. Smooth, responsive, the engine note perfect.  The bike surging forward with every minor twist of throttle. Got it tuned about right. Motors happy.
Must have got a good batch of fuel!
Its about 70° and sunny. A beautiful Autum day.
Sublime.

Its good to be alive.

No April Fool's joke! LOL!

I was there also, apart from his last 35 miles or so.

I had a similar experience, although not quite as euphoric.
