^^Nice ride JEDZ!
Glad you made the most of a CLOSED dirt trail.
Today is my Effective USAF Retirement Date as well as my Enlistment Date...2011 and 1986...10 years retired and 35 years since Boot Camp.
It's a day I'll never forget...regardless of the All Fool's Day history.

I went for a 45 min cruise first of season yesterday.
I was all happy told my friend who mocked me for being two weeks later than him.
Picture me on a bike. Man the onboard temp readout is fast. Makes you aware of how fat a Celsius degree is.
14 in elevated areas instantly dropping to 10.5 in hollows.
Shivers and histamine responses.

Went for ride Wednesday evening, barley over 40degf when left. Just a short ride further out of town, and then into town. same as have said before, and photo similar to as posted before. Although to find a somewhat more interesting scene for pic I did find my way around closed gates into the portion of park not yet open for the season.

Was cold and windy at the beach, and after walking the pier and walking beach for sunset photo walk I will admit to being cold (despite walking around in full riding gear and gloves , and heavy hat I brought to wear thier instead of helmet). What was unique and interesting was that I warmed up some on ride home. I attribute that to that bike’s wind protection and heated grips. Thermometer on porch at home showed 30degF when got back home. So, apparently it is more chilling to walk the pier/beach on a cold windy evening , than is to ride mo’cykl (that one anyway) that same occasion.

haha what an enthusiast, Jedz. Gotta say that Honda really hits an old man's funnybone. Looks like a riot! "Wheelie potential kind of a negative..." oh gee, it's off my list,then.

Well, so far the FJR's Road 5's have 5,560 miles on them. Tread depth before getting to the wear bars is still 3mm rear and 1.8mm front. Any idea what the tread depth is new? Forgot to measure and I'd like to estimate how many miles are left in them.
What a pretty bike, Dave. BravoRode my RF today for the first time since last August....... Deadbeat Dad, me. :dejection:
It’s nice to see you out and about Trevor; how are you feeling?
Thanks Scott, I feel not bad...the hip and leg get sore...I can't walk very far...there is more "clicking" in my clip now...still waiting to hear when I go in for a hip replacement....I'm getting a call Thursday from a "navigator" to talk about the surgery.
I am so looking forward to it....life seems to be on hold.
Cheers
Oh, and Happy Birthday!
Thank you Trevor
It was sooo nice today. We were having family for Easter so I was kind of bummed I wouldn’t get to ride on such a beautiful day. Low and behold my 10 year old niece really wanted me to take her for a ride (her first). And mom was OK with it so it worked out great for both of us. We both had a blast.
Safety briefing:
then off we go(this was just her getting on, she knew not to hold on to my shoulders):

After the family left I was able to get in a short evening ride to a local graffitied covered bridge. Very different massages tagged on opposite sides.
Aw, thanks guys. I have a friend/neighbor who owns a body shop. The paint was done about 15 years ago. It was some left over color from a custom job he did. In certain lights it really does pop. Upgraded the brake line to a Venhill braided SS about 2 years ago. The rear shocks are original and holding up. Though I have nothing to compare it to. They may be weak but my butt doesn’t know any better. Pipes are original and in good condition except the PO drilled a bunch of raggedy-a$$ holes in the baffles. Pi$$es me off every time I look at it. May stop at an local exhaust shop I’ve used before and see if the guy can do anything with it.
As all our bikes are, this one has been a labor of love, blood, sweat and tears. But it’s mine. And I like it. Thanks for the kind words.
