anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

Duh, was trying to think of my last ride...wasn't exactly a ride though me and group of friends had set up a MSF advanced course class back in Nov. Man that was a blast, everyone did great time and learned a lot about their bikes. There were 11 of us and half were women.

what the links can't convey is how dangerous that roadway is for bikes even when conditions are good...it's road to avoid if at all possible, I came within inches of being road kill last month...that this guy did it on a scooter in icy/blizzard conditions is insane...

I know the type of road...no matter how hard we try, I feel none of us will ever come close to being as "badass" as this scooter guy...lol

I bought another suzuki today to add to my fleet and may drive it this winter when i get wimpy and want to be in heated compartment. It is a 1987 Suzuki Samurai 4x4. My 68 Honda Cub is my goto winter rig,but this will be fun too, though the Sami makes less hp than the Gs. No snow in the valley but mountains 10 miles away have over 46 inches of snow, temps here in 30 and 40 F with vetter make ride into town perfectly fine on the Gs.

Nothing like moving a snow covered bike around in your PJs. :)
 
See you got out Justin before the storm moves in. Expecting 6-10" for us. Probably have to wait until next Saturday to pull one of the bikes out.
Is that thestore with the cow on the roof?
Always loved that.

I heard that too... But I've heard anything from a dusting to a foot. I bet we get a few inches... I blasted 30 miles out on the Connie too today. But it's got a tank full of stabilizer and premium ethanol free. Covered and ready for the next thaw...

Yeah that's the store!... But the Beef Supply is no more. It's a Maplefields now. They kept the cow though, it's still a redneck gas stop but everything is brand new now... Weird in a good way.
 
Finally at 4pm I got a chance to head out for a bit. My wife and I were downtown shopping today and I was noticing how many fantastic murals we have around here. We got the truck home and off I went on the bike. Short ride but really fun going to find these works of art.



Gotta love these classic games.



If I could see a loud sudden noise I imagine it would look something like this.



Behind a music club.



Some local favorites







I set the phone down and ran back to the bike , just kidding. A nice bystander offered to take my pic.



Trippy!



A screen printing shop, alley side.
 
Great pics Burque!!!! Love the murals.....we have a little town not far from here that has lots of them....kind of turned the place into a tourist attraction.

Thanks Trevor. We get so used to these murals being around sometimes we forget they're there.

I cant believe it was almost 60 degrees today. Beautiful weather and it looks like more is on the way.

Love the CLASSICS!!! Coming from a guy that has a 1UP sticker on his bike!
 
Nice photos

Nice photos

Hey Roger,
Love these, strange low sunlight, clear air, lots of color, and NO SNOW!!!
Getting a good look at your 850G too, you're like the western Redman.

Just wondering why the lady with glasses? Maybe the owner, or wife?
