Default ready set, thumb that starter button

Hitting that starter button for the first time after a frosty winter is Don't forget to check tire pressure before heading out on that shake down run.

I think the winter curse has been lifted.

And watch the traction.
That pavement is slippery when accelerating.

Hells yeah, the futura isnt back together yet. Took the buell out to get inspected yesterday. Was odd at first it didnt want to turn for anything but then it got better when I was heading home. I did forget to check the tire pressures so will take care of that before i go. May be better keepin em a hair low since its cold out.

We only had ice on the ground for a day or two, my new gear I can ride well below freezing without much care. It's not really been any different for me than when it's warm.
