Just rode around to warm up the chain for cleaning and waxing...it's already getting close to unbearable.

You are a good bike owner.  Tommy is at work today, so no riding until maybe later this evening.

Thats why I left at 8:15am and wore the phase vest  [thumbsup] (got up at 7 and wiped the bike down) Just got back... went to Celina, Aubrey, Pilot Point, Denton, Lewsiville, The Colony, Frisco and almost to McKinney before coming back. Stopped to get gas on 428 and saw something that I should have taken a picture of... it was a little dive of a gas station, you know the ones where the pumps wont even take credit cards, it had a full on dragster on the roof, was in the middle of nowhere and they had a big sign out front advertising their high speed internet access  [laugh].

Reminds me of the old non-functioning gas station I used to pass in Johnson Co every day: someone rented it and set up a full espresso bar where the pumps used to be. You could drive up and order an espresso along with choosing from large variety of high-end pastries.  [laugh]  [coffee]  ;)
