Today ... well it was only a couple showers with some nice breaks. 16°C Rode around the hills, about 200km, with this little group and stopped at the Toolangi Tavern for lunch. View from back of tavern.
    Sounds like fun and would sure love to see the view but your picture isn't displaying for me anyway

        Geez, too bad you're busy with the new house and don't have time to go riding. LOL

          Other than fit and finish issues, how is the baby Harley holding up, Jedz?

            HAHAHA Truthfully I'd be past 8K if I didn't have the house stuff going on, looking like August will be less eventful and with an eclipse ride in the works I might break 10K this month! Well on the Harley... I'm @10K miles for the season thus far with all the steads. Half way through.

            Quite well believe it or not, it went in at 5K for the intake boot rip but after that no issues to really report on. It likes to eat rear tires, the 009 only lasted till about 3.5K miles, so I'm on my 3rd rear now. Could have pushed the 009 a bit more but I was coming up to the wear bars and I don't keep tires past that anymore (risk management). It runs good, gets about 50MPG, motor and transmission are still very strong and solid. Rest of the bike is holding up well. I took the bikini fairing off for it was getting sun bleached BAD. I got a set of saddle bags for it, also installed engine guards with highway pegs to help out the +400 mile days. I also installed a "Day-maker" HD's LED headlight conversion which I got at a heavy discount for my issues I've had. It's been stellar for night riding, what a difference! It's proving to be a pretty competent bike. Just wish they gave it a touch more power but it handles very well and I'm pleased with the purchase but no way sold on the brand.

              Took the bike with the wife to Pebble Beach .. well I didnt actually head out to go there .. I went out to take a quick spin and didnt stop until I saw the river. The water was moving full speed but being a Monday there wasn't a soul in sight. Bike ran wonderfully and since it was only about 97 degrees it was a nice cool ride.

                  Thanks to everyone for sharing.
                  And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
                  Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

                          Rode to South central Wisconsin and back today. 500 miles of wandering around for 12 hours. That's about all I'm good for anymore.

                            Eighty miles yesterday that included a 4 hour wait at the Base's Military Personnel Flight ID Card section only to be told to go to the hospital for my issue; they fixed it in two minutes. Slab over to a new barn we are moving into this weekend and then back home. Need to get gas before riding anywhere else soon as I am on fumes.
