So, when do you start?
Working on that now. It will be a while (it's the fed, so that's expected), and I'm I'm only getting started on the paperwork in Monday.

NGA is a good organization to work for...and I've always had great support from their guys that deploy w/ us.
I know. I've basically been working their office of counterterrorism for the last several years. The ONI part itself is only temporary. I'll either be looking to move over to Kennedy or a different NGA job within a year or so.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Went to SSD this morning and had a new front 2CT fitted, then went for a ride to get some miles on the tire before Sunday...asked Eddie the tech how my SF compares to others he's ridden, he said mine is an animal and is the most sorted of those he's had experience with...

He said the same about my bike...I think they say that to most of us when we ask! It's like telling a parent their baby looks beautiful, when their cone shaped head looks like a strange alien!

I was told once by a Ducati Italy tech[he was down here giving training to the once local dealer] that my M620D, felt different and he wanted to perform some tests ... it comes out that my M620 somehow, got some engine parts[pistons he said] in that do not belong on a M620 and that's why I felt the bike was different to the other M620's I had test riden ... come to think about it, I have kicked other M620's asses with mine ...

You must have gotten the same pistons that Randy's CapriRex 620 had.

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.

That's a potent 620!
Didn't know you could get numbers like that ... from the Factory

Hit 15,000 miles, exactly, just as I hit the top of Norfolk while going home this afternoon.
I thought that was kind of appropriate.
