I did a short stint of about 25 miles on the RR and came back home and took the Ninja 500 out for another 20. I try to move both of them at least once a week, and it's best to take the 1000 out before the 500:whistle:

Of course... I ride everyday :nana2: Didn't go too far though... rode over to Athens (about 25 miles or so each way) to go to Lowes and get some concrete anchors to mount my tire changer out back. Came home and totally screwed them up installing them, lol. Gotta redo it tomorrow :whistle:

Might head up to the mountains tomorrow... it's supposed to be nice out

Wife and kids have me on "lockdown" tomorrow LOL... You going to the CycleWorld Bike show in Greenville, SC the weekend of 20-22nd? I think me and my buddy are gonna go but have not purchased tickets yet.

I'm in Rutherfordton, which is roughly the midpoint between Asheville and Charlotte.

Yup I'll be there.... probably be with Andie (compulady5) and possibly my roomate Jered too (he rides a silver/black '01 F4i). We'll all definitely have to meet up if you make it out there! I'll PM you my contact info....

We have snow in some spots on the roads and in our drive. Just not a good time to be out in this area. Maybe in about 8 weeks I can.

I rode some. Just up to the Home Depot to look at some high rez yellow glasses for riding. My other pair broke.

Would have rode more but needed to get some mountain biking in while the weather was nice.

Thirdgen. You're just who I need to talk to. I need a drivers side headlight and turn signal for a 1998 S10. And a grill for a 1998 S10. Trying to get it running since I hit a deer with it. I figured Greenleaf would have some stuff.

Yesterday hit 60. :rockwoot: The wife...a friend and I met up and put about 150 miles on the bikes.

Beautiful day...sunshine...no tickets...no accidents...and no mechanical issues. :dthumb:

We also plan to ride to the show in Greenville, SC. We will have to make it a day trip on Saturday because we are heading out Sunday morning for Snowshoe, WV for a ski trip. :rockout:

No, I rolled my bikes out of the collapsed garage, parked them in the driveway, covered them with a tarp, then proceeded to completely overfill a POD with all the shit from the garage. Fun day.

it was about 70 all day. Beautiful. Me and PistonPete did about 200 miles through the backroads of Pasco county and Brooksville all afternoon. Felt good...
