Another 13+ hour day at work today. That's 4 out of 5 this week and I would have batted 1.000 except that Tuesday is Gloria's and mine mid-week night out and I only worked 12 hrs that day. We have created a monster and I don't know if it's good or bad ........ whew........
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Short ride to Ko Olina & back this morning, followed by a mid-cycle oil change for the SF...after that I readied the car for Sunday's autocross...

the on and off ramp to that place can be kind of fun... i hit that up almost every day on my way home. that is if no donkey is in front of me.
it is so much easier to get forgiveness then it will ever be to get permission.

The mid-week date night, or the super-sized service package at BME?   ;D

BME, all BME.  I'm going to start charging the date night bar tab to the BME credit card.  Stress relief.   [laugh]  Wait, that isn't such a bad idea.   [laugh]

I get a regular paycheck every two weeks.  My boss figures that is enough correct compensation.

let's see....... regular Sunday chores -- laundry & grocery shopping.  Bought & installed a new toilet seat twice (didn't get the right design the first time  [bang] ) -- Rode the Pegoretti 15 miles, including one lap around Norfolk --- Adjusted the valves on the 240D -- some other stuff too but nothing to do with motorcycles.

Autocrossed my car...one thing I've noticed recently, the more proficient that I get on two wheels, the less proficient I am on four...on the track at least...

That must have to do with where your heart & mind is focused.....

UHM ... I'd say, you'd like to do the track on a SM ... One leg down, drifting through the corners and then a small jump, hit the esses then that dreaded right, two gears down, hold clutch in, give a bit of gas, let clutch out, leg down through out the right hander ... repeat as needed ...

Or?

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

Went to SSHD and looked at the 749 they have there 04 1400 miles and $9900 price tag.
Then strolled over to SSD and looked at the 999s they have with 4k miles and 11k price tag.

On a side note the white 848 EVO had a sold sign on the seat.

Had D out in the snow chasing after the red dot for about an hour this evening.

There was an '06 749S for sale up here not long ago.  Thing had just over 600 miles and the shop wanted $6500.

im not really interested in either one but might test ride them both for something to do and to say that i did. i do want a second bike but  was thinking something more comfortable
