Gonna be cool but sunny again tomorrow.... and I'll be out  [Dolph] [Dolph] [Dolph].... but I seem to be addicted to this dirt road riding malarkey lately... so once again the Duc stays in the shed in favour of the lesser beast.  Weird.

Lesser is the wrong term...

Just different. [thumbsup]

In $$$ terms...   1 x M1100 = 3 x DR650.

Maybe that's why I'm also lesser upset when I drop the DR.... which is just as well given that I drop it every second outing  [laugh].

Even aliens need their beauty sleep.   So its time I wasnt.

Later.

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

I know this guy. He has an old bevel drive 750, a 750 Supersport in yellow, A Paul Smart with really expensive suspension, a Cagiva gran canyon 900, and a 996 in red, but no Monster. They all have the Key in them and he says I can take them out any old time I want. I haven't taken any of them out, but I do like to start them up.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.
