Biker's Run..........................

...Good evenin' everyone..been a wet day here in the western tip of the ol' dominion...but can't complain, has been t-shirt weather, and here it is 3 days till christmas....
...Been wonderin' 'bout ya dinny, have seen all that on the news, sure looks like onehelluvamess...Good to see ya still have power anyway, and will be hopin' that ya get some warm weather soon, to help with the thawin'/meltin' process...We only had rain today, but theres been a lot of it, haven't checked the rain guage yet...
...Weatherman says, we may have some snow Christmas evenin'/nite webb, but should be lil' if any accumulation. My wishes for a white Christmas, went out the window, when I was hired on, with the highway dept. Now snow means, I work nites, course this too may change, as the new gr-daughter gets older, and wantin' snow... ;)
...Snow is perty for a lil' while, but seems the older I get, the shorter that 'while' is...lol...
...Hope everyone has a joyous, and happy holiday season... :)
 
i miss goin out in the snow in a t shirt - having a smoke - crisp air grey skies threatening more snow - although its been damn chilly for ventura, ca - high 30's at night but still 60's every day
- blue skies
-
i grew up (depending on who you talk to) in langley - great falls area outside of d.c.

20 years i lived there - still consider it home
 
G-evenin' everyone,

.....And a BUMP for the ol' thread...Been a good/short week for me here in the western tip of Va., and glad to see Friday almost here. Gonna have another long weekend, and then another short week, thanx to the Gov. of my fair state... ;)
.....Hope with nobody postin', means everyone is out ridin', I have been gettin' a few miles in, last weekend, and rode all week to work. Been kinda cool in the mornin's, but is always nicer for the return trip. Always hate it bein' nice, and havin' my big-ol-truck at work.
......Hope everyone has big plans for the new years, and whatever ya do, be it partyin', or whatever, always prepare ahead, for either, to stay, or have a designated driver...Always been kinda partial to a few/several, good 'stiff toddies', myself...But always do it in a safe enviornment, and be here to partake again, another time...
.....Hope everyone has a great and HAPPY NEW YEAR...and look forward to this thread pickin' back up...

....Ride safe, but ride....
 
G'Day gang

Just home from hols and spent a couple of days with a mate who is also a fellow rider.

The beast had a couple of good hundred milers over the last week and just wants to go faster out on the open road.

I hope the bearded guy was good to you all and that the new year brings many more opportunities to get out onto the open road.
 
...figured ya were out ridin' webbo, sounds like ya have been enjoyin' yourself...Nice enuff here to be ridin', but weather is s'pposed to be close, so stayin' in...I fed early this mornin'...seems odd, feedin' hay to cattle, and its warm enuff to be rollin' hay...am still 'fraid we may hafta pay for this nice weather come Jan...but its one day that ain't cold/miserable..... ;)
...Hope ya have a great NEW YEAR webbo, as well as everyone else....

And a very happy new year to you too my friend......and to every one here

May the wind be at your back and the road ahead be flat
 
...lol, been wonderin' if ya had dug out dinny...hated to hear ya got hammered, again...Good to hear ya are still kickin' anyway..
.....And Happy New Year to you, and everyone....
...Didn't get any saddle time in today, I think it's the first, first day of the year, I have missed ridin' in, years...thought 'bout it, but had to much work to get done here, did get the rest of our 'baccor graded, so was well worth the missed day of ridin'...Now just to get it sold, and bring home the dough... ;)
...Hope everyone had a good/safe new year, we stayed in, but did stay up to see the ol' year out, and the new one in...I think it has somethin' to do with me gettin' older, don't seem to enjoy these late nites drinkin', and partyin' as much anymore...
...Enjoy your nice ridin' weather webbo.... :)

The weather's closed in at the moment and it's raining a fair bit (but hey we need it ) so my saddle time has been very limited the last two days :(
Besides I think my lady needs some time in the saddle more than I do at this time.
 
I refuse to give up!

I didn't put the bike on blocks this year...damn it! I'm going to be the first one in the wind when the streets are clear enough, till then I'm revving up the scooter in the garage everyday I can! (Of course another snow storm is expected the end of the week and is currently dumping 8-16 inches in Idaho.)

Don't let it get ya down Dinny.......

My old C.O had a saying "Let it snow all it likes........I'm headed south to ride some bikes"

Take a holiday mate and hire a bike in Mexico lol
 
Rent?

Hell, if they ever get the roads clear, the border's only a hard days ride from here. That's what I need right about now.
 
...lol dinny, thats the spirit, hate to hear more winter precip. is headed your way....Maybe they will get 'em cleared and ya can head south... :)....Wouldn't care to have a good southern trip myself, gonna try to get a barn built this spring, so not lookin' good for my yearly 'jaunt', to daytona in march...oh well, as they say, sacrafices must be made...
...Glad to hear ya are gettin' some needed rain webbo, it's s'pposed to be movin' in here tonite, and tomorrow. Been strange weather for the first of the year, was 63 here today, and s'pposed to be even warmer tomorrow...Don't care, as long as ol' man winter don't try to linger come spring... ;)
...Hope everyone has had a great week, and the weekends even better....


...Ride safe, but ride....
 
I can't believe this...

The Mrs. and I were coming back in from the store last night around 9:30 PM ...it's around 20 degrees outside with six inches of ice packed on our street and some damn fool is riding his Harley. Of course he was barely moving and having a hard time holding it up but WTF was he doing out there to begin with? Man, I want to ride bad... but I want to keep my bike in one piece to do it. So I guess I won't be the first nut case to ride in the New Year in this valley.
