    Boy, my reply with quote got all mixed up.
    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!

      Keith !
      Thanks for update.

      I was rude enough to start another thread with your update.
      "Update from KEITH KRAUSE"


      You have been a promenent contributor here on GSR, and I imagine that many folks (not just us GoForRide Photo folks) recall you and would like the update and want to make a comment to you.

      Dave

        Thanks, Dave. I used to spend so much time here it was almost like a part time job. Some of my advice was more like a short novel.
        I visit every month or so, but don't always reply. As time goes by, a lot of members have died or disappeared. I still miss "Scotty", for one, even though I never met him. I think it's great how members here have helped each other and become good friends.
        A real family here.
        Sorry for the temporary highjack of the thread.

          Ride today (Friday) was to move bikes out of garage.
          Clean up a few things.

          Rearange a lot of stuff.

          Take lawnmower to the shed, get snowthrower into the garage.

          MOve bikes back into the garage.

          Ddhhooaaahhh
          ANother sidestand missoperation.......

          No problem, it just rested on the crashbars.

          Knew what to do. Reach underneath, get into gear. Backup to it, lift with handlebar and luggage rack, then push up/over more with butt. Deploy sidestand fully this time.

          Later results:

            Was wonder, if it was about 9am, and they were just now comming in, I wonder when they went out.
            And thought how dedicated and enthusastic they must be about fishing to go out under such conditions - - just for fishing, for a fish. Some people are strange, eh.
            Took up a challange for pic of bike with Christmas light displays, so Went for a ride this evening.
            Also stopped by the beach/pier. I Was taking pic there with my cell phone and was some guy walking past, and he offered to take my pic with my bike for me (with my cellphone).

                As close as came to going for ride today.

                We only got 10 inches. Further inland got 12-16 inches. More expected tonight and tommorow.

                And temperatures in the teens (degF) in next few days, wind chill in single digits.

                .

                  6 degrees F? Wow, you win. I've ridden in the lower 20's back when my original GS850 was my only transportation, dodging ice patches, but 6?

                  And it looks like I missed any post about that cute little wire-wheeled Suzy in the picture!
                  and God said, "Let there be air compressors!"

                        Warm weekend here, low 50s, so did some running around on the GS. Yesterday I ran some more parts to the post office.




                        Today I had a nice ride acrossed town to an afternoon class at the climbing gym.



                        I Learned how to belay for a climber on the rock wall. First attempt after instruction, I was on the ground and the guy on the wall outweighed me by 60lbs. That was interesting, I got pulled off my feet and toward the wall when he fell. He didn't fall far though. Hopefully my son will get certified to belay so I can climb without the spring loaded auto system. I'm really having fun with this.

                            Out playing in the snow... HAHA So much fun in the snow covered parking lots... The new 250cc engine and 6 speed transmission really help things out!

                                We will see how fatherhood suits me after 18 years... I'm willing to bet I'm doing well if I'm only eccentric!
