    Default I'm not Sure...

    ...If this counts as the first ride of the Season; or just a brief journey into madness...

    But I got to ride today, and it felt AWESOME!!

    The ride wasn't very far, but at least the bike is back outside!!

    must be nice! I got about a half a mile of muddy dirt road to get to the main road, and then it's not much better cause the potholes are coming back already and the ditches are plugged up and everything is running out onto what pavement is left. HOWEVER, Sideswipe will be on a trailer along side of my Road King next Friday for a 5am Saturday morning departure for Summerville SC. then things will be a little different!

    If that was my neighborhood, I would be riding every day. No snow here, but there is three miles of ice covered road before I can get to the mostly clear highway.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    It appears that the rubberized coating on the "tires" does a pretty good job!

    D,
    I'm not sure if this could be useful for you or not; but it looks to have potential!

    We got "lucky", and had a real "Toad Strangler" storm on Wednesday. Our roads were washed clean in just one day.
