    Mrs. Jedz made me this green juice concoction. I drank and asked what was for dinner. She said that was it...

    Ugh

        Justin, depending on how much I want to bundle up, I'm usually able to ride thru October at least.
        Tonight is an absolutely beautiful fall riding night - warm cloudy and humid - the fall warmth that promises rain and invites one to get a ride while they can - A limited opportunity of sorts.... I sold an engine instead...

        Bill, yes I may ramble a bit, but I think my thoughts may be slightly more organized..... I enjoy reading about and sharing the thought process that goes along with a ride. Or maybe its work creeping in, where everything needs to be explained..... or explained away. I also generally enjoy Burnt Kitty Forge's posts. He is one of the few I've seen here that can ramble on without being defensive about what he writes when questioned.

        Rk, that is a wild looking bike. You know you're a serious cyclist when you pay more fora bicycle then an old GS (just a guess)

          Fall Foliage is starting in... Bit damp (misting in the mountains) but good day for a ride through the Green Mountain National Park...

            Frost too already? WOW, you're about 4 weeks colder than Southern Michigan. Looks like you'll shoveling snow by Nov. 1st!

                    Sounds like it has a pretty slick gearbox.
                    Was this at dusk?
                    Must feel like a bicycle, weight wise, compared to the Connie.
                    GS\'s since 1982: 55OMZ, 550ES, 750ET, (2) 1100ET\'s, 1100S, 1150ES. Current ride is an 83 Katana. Wifes bike is an 84 GS 1150ES

                      It's a feather weight yes but it handles VERY VERY well.... So that and the looks is why I bought it.

                      Bike is stock minus the 2nd throttle removal and 13T setup. It's a Zuk the tranny is actually very nice.

                          Agreed! Most videos sound like a hurricane.

                              Not sure, My case for the Go-Pro is air locked and the port for the Microphone is completely sealed off. It use to rattle horribly but I fixed that by taping the slide mount with electric tape... The sound quality increased there too.

                              One of my better captures!

                                13T instead of....?

                                I was thinking that Sprocket Mountain must be named after, maybe, Ol' man Ebeneezer Sprocket.
                                Oh.... okay, I see.
