Wow, that hypnotism stuff really works!

Anyone know if the road is clear?  Maybe next weekend?

Crap, wish I had time to ride up there and check for ya...  Work is nutty this week, and my weekend is booked with vehicle maintenance and my brother's college graduation.

I still see small patches of snow on north-facing peaks that are around or over 3000 feet, but otherwise it's clear.  I think it's a safe bet the road surface is clear of frozen stuff, but you'll want to be wary of gravel.

Maybe wait a little longer than.  I'd like it to be a carefree ride for everyone.  Maybe Viktor will have his new toy soon :)

I took the liner out of my jacket this morning and I wasn't even cold.  Summer is here!

Keep your silly astronomical dates to yourself.  The liner's out of the jacket so it's summer as far as I'm concerned :)

I've been commuting daily this week in my non-perforated leather jacket, but without the thermal liner.  Not too cold, just have to keep the wind out in the mornings.  Today it'll be too warm in the afternoon for a non-perf'd jacket, so I wore a Columbia wind/rain shell over my perf'd Ducati jacket for the cooler morning ride, but I'll be enjoying the breeze this afternoon. ;)

Speaking of commuting... I've saved approximately $19.75 in commuting costs since June 1st by riding the Cagiva.  ;D  Two more round trips to work and it'll have paid for its insurance for the month.

I knew I needed a new rear tire, but then I saw the steel belts showing through!  :o

Time to get new skins. [thumbsup]

Now that you got rid of all the rotating weight that thing must be fast!

Hey, you got any fully functioning motorcycles now or are you just running a parts shop?

Mornin' my old friends (some older than others... heh)... Was trolling for what it'd take to do the 12K min service on Cara and voila, ended up here... :) 

Oh and I don't wanna hear about cold weather riding, it's in the 30's on my way to work, in the 70's on my way home here in Central Oregon.. heh
