    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Time to go for a ride?

I just might go for a ride today, conditions are ideal here, think it'll be around 80 at least, unseasonably warm weather even for Florida, don't even think I'll need a jacket.

That's what our friend Ashley at Boulevard Suzuki told me yesterday.
It must suck! :(

But... my roads have turns and elevation changes. So there! :p

Actually, I was getting ready to head out to Boulevard Suzuki (which is also known as Deland Motorsports) yesterday, some 35 miles away, and give her a GS Resources patch, but my girlfriend got off work early so I scrapped the idea.
 
Took my Bandit for a ride today. After some cyber-coaching by Earl, I adjusted the valves, changed plugs and cleaned the air filter yesterday. My Bandit sounds like Johnny Mathis singing a love song. Runnin' great. Stock but great. By the way, I wore a T shirt.
 
I went for a short ride today 2 miles to deliver a bike back to it's owner after I did some repair work to it. Damn near froze my Azz off. Didn't think it would be that bad only 2 miles but didn't really take in the fact of a wind chill at 20 degrees.
 
I went out for a bit today. Says 34 but feels much much colder than that. Everything was fine until I hit a patch of ice and the back started to get swervy. I turned my ass right around and headed home.

yeah, I love the sound of the Yoshi on the B12. Nice deep tone, and mellow, not loud at all.
 
37*F, sunny and dry on Christmas Day!

I think I'm going to chase the riding game tag today, the bike is sitting in the garage, whining at me that it needs to be ridden.:D
 
Its near 50 here today but I'm debating on whether its worth de winterizing for a ride.

Btw I posted this on Roses new kindle fire I got her for Xmas. For what it costs ths thing is awesome. :)
 
Mid-40's on Christmas Day, so took the bike out. Good time to try out my Tourmaster Flex2 that I got last month and my new Icon HooliganII pants I got yesterday.

Jacket works really well. Warm and toasty, pants are really going to be nice this summer--not so warm right now.

Got the tags for the riding game, now I'm trying to figure out how to post a video from my Christmas present to me, a Flip video camera. I'll post that one on the other riding thread when I figure it out.
 
Didn't get to ride the GS today. The half moons were seeping so I took off the valve cover and replaced the moons and one shim while I was in there. Gasket was perfect and reusable. Tomorrow is the GS's turn.
