      As I review the recent posts, all I can say is you guys look cold with all those jackets, cold up there?
      Not so here, short sleeve shirt, 80's.

      I had to stop for gas, so this Circle K is where I fill up.
      Dangerous intersection, it's claimed the lives of two riders that I know of.
      One was a firefighter coming home from Bike Week. Deadly left turners both times.
      And so it is, these little make shift monuments appear all over the roads I travel, a half mile or so, another one, two more miles still another one.
      It's an ever constant reminder of the dangers we face in an otherwise tropical paradise. You can see my bike at the pump.
      This kid was a local high school football hero, van turned in front of him,
      didn't have a chance.

        As so it was, on this nice morning I had to run to the post office to mail a package, and this is the Christmas Post office to mail my Christmas package to a fellow GSR member as a Christmas present.



        Yes, it's Christmas all year round here! yeah, my light is on, and the motor is running.




        This little Christmas scene is all year down here!

          I just had to get out for a ride today! It had been 17 days without riding. Not cool!! I think that is the longest I have gone in the last 2 years. And I even had a two honeymoon last year. Back roads were a bit wet but I'm loving the new tires!


          It was around 8 (46) degrees today.

            Nice day here in San Diego, 76F and sunny. I'm on my my way back from a ride in our local mountains.

            I forgot my camera, so the smart phone camera gets the job.

                Take some pic's of Bill's modded 750 with your bike please. Perhaps some side by side pic's to show the differences?

                  He's feeling under the weather...so I don't know if he's gonna want to go to where his bike is parked at an off-site location.

                  Since this is my only chance to get down there before my LA trip, I'll make the best of it!

                        It's difficult to ride our bikes here in the netherlands as they are continuosly salting the roads to prevent ice. I certainly admire your bravery geting out there in the cold. I'm happy staying in with a six pack and reading the GS650 manual by the fireside

                          My wife and I went for a ride up the Malahat to have lunch at place called serious Coffee. Great ride! Some wet roads but not too cold. We decided to take the ferry back. It's about a 30 min ride. Very pretty. We are lucky to live here.
                          My wife...she is just awesome!!











                          And back to dock...we live about ten min. from here.


                          And the wet roads made a mess of my bike so ya gotta take care of em. lol...It was worth it!

                              Trevor, you lead a charmed life. Nice pictures. Glad someone is riding. I'm just filling up my (little)garage.
