It is best to block any toughts about the Village People, Cheesy. Especially since I wore chaps on my ride to work this morning also!

I'm glad that conditions have improved in your area and you are agian out on your motorcycle! You did a great job fixing that Honda, it's good that you have the pleasure of riding it.

AGM batteries are great. The OEM one on my 2007 Honda is original, and still works fine too.

The village had the Street sweepers out today and cleared the roads of salt. Too bad it's going to snow this evening.

I'm envious that you got out for a ride.

You're going to be envious tomorrow, too, because the snow barely missed us. Less than an inch and already gone. Sunny day predicted.

We've had lovely weather this week, and it'll be pouring in time for the weekend. I saw 62F yesterday.

Supposed to be in the 40s today but it hasn't gotten above freezing yet. No sun, either. Still, I rode.

Never did get any better yesterday. Rode home in snow flakes. We have yesterdays' forecast today and I'm working on the Audi.

On the plus side, that nice, big Eclipse tank bag my buddy gave me does wonders for keeping the cold breeze off of what the chaps do not cover up front.

Although in the CX vein, not something you'll see everyday.

Just decided to put this here where it belonged.

The stumble, misfire, scare the crapola outta me no power to full power launch is fixed. Finally. It was most definitely the pistons and caps. I guess I should probably stock up on some spares.
