    Default I broke her out..... of Winter storage

    It is with Great Glee that I can report, 5 months in storage, no issues, no problems, no concerns, my stock 2013 RT Limited started up first time (after reconnecting the battery), warmed up real nice, and carried me around on a cloud of BRP perfection (albiet in 40+ degree (F) weather) on my circuitous 15 minute ride home all of 1 mile from storage to my garage.... I kinda took some intentional wrong turns to let the engine gradually warm up to a full heat soak before backing her in the garage and putting her to overnight rest...

    Doesn't she look happy, I know I am.

    No complaints, no problems, rides like a dream and .... now the farkling can begin...

    Took her out for a 35 Mile around the local lakes ride today, Found a Spyder in a nest

    Well Near a nest, a lot of nests in the Cormorant Rookery on the islands behind me.... Hundreds of birds back there, the symphony was pretty awesome.

    Les & David, I'm glad you were able to finally get your machines out of storage. It's about time! I've got over 800 miles on this year already! I took mine out when we had those beautiful days in the middle of February. Val and I are going for a ride out for dinner tonight.

    David, I don't think we've met yet, but I've ridden with Les. I'm sure we'll meet sometime this summer. Enjoy this great weather!
