                  We had a string of unseasonably warm (60+ degree F) days here in northern Utah recently so I took out my GSXR 750 for a spin up in the mountains. Believe it or not it was about 55 degrees when this pic was taken.

                    You have a choice. The west coast isn't completely full... almost, but we're not being bodily pushed into the ocean by the crowds yet.

                      Does this work to show where I just returned from?

                      This pic is from my ride up into the Salt River Canyon in Az.

                        Having just returned from a trip to Arizona, Utah and Colorado, I can now show some pics of the beautiful scenery I got to ride through. Too bad I am not good with photos but this might help to prove I really was there.

                        And this is the reason I went to Arizona. I don't like snow after I have see more than a inch of it.

                          And of course, the obligatory finding of one of Mesa's finest BBQ joints. This one is Waldo's. Yummmm. I highly recommend it if you are in the area.

                          This is loaded and ready to escape the snow and cold.

                          And by cold I mean this.

                            After a weekend of maintenance: new oil/filter, valve check, new throttle cable, new choke cable, finally got out for a ride this afternoon. Haven’t ridden since Christmas Day. Still lots of snow in the higher elevations, but it warmed up nicely today.
