Went home at lunch to pick up my bike as it was 8 (46) degrees out! Nice! Played the riding game. Oh I hope Feb. is as nice as January was.

Took a 220 mi ride with my brother on our ST1300's. Made a loop to the south through Smith Valley and met up with a friend to discuss plans to attend a Rally in Denver this summer. It was low to mid fifties throughout the day.

Sorry, no pics, having trouble uploading the video. ARG!

Back on two wheels...

Behold, the maiden voyage of Turd II...


Just a crappy cell phone pic taken at a random gas station Monday evening where I stopped to adjust the handlebars.

I rode the KLR to work Tuesday, and will ride the V-Strom to work today (Wednesday). We'll be back to our regularly scheduled winter sometime tomorrow, but it was a nice couple of days' respite. The GS will come out when the salt has washed off the roads. I've learned my lesson there...

Very nice to be riding again, too.

Hey good to see someone getting out in a place where they should be riding a snowmobile instead of a motorcycle.

Absolutely B E A utiful here today and I'm stuck inside at work 57 and bright sun no wind... *sigh*

Clear and sunny, about 80 deg. Went for a nice backroads ride, no vultures. LOL

I ride every day it doesn't rain or dip below 30 degrees F. I rode at 31 degrees a few days ago but only about 10 miles before stopping for a while. I need to get a camera.

Got out for a little bit to look at another acquisition.
It looks like it will be following me home.
It is definitely a "beater" and needs lots of love but, it does run.
I feel almost like I will be cheating as it does run already.
Well, sort of anyway. Leaking carb and leaking petcock, etc...

Another rescue did you get a decent deal?

Another rescue did you get a decent deal?

But, of course!
I paid $100 for the engine, $100 for the swing arm, $100 for the the '83 exhaust and for $50, I got the steering damper, carbs, title, seat and the rest of it!

$350 and it runs without an airbox

[7981GS]

Don't you know, NONE of these run without a completely buttoned up tight, factory air box! LMAO!!!
Enough hi-jacking this thread. I will start a build thread once it comes home to roost.

Pics...? No. Just a short ride to & from work today. Temps in the high 30's is all I need to roll out the GS for the day. Tomorrow might be okay for more, but need to see how cold it gets early...

Went home at lunch to get the bike and finish work rounds on it. Sunny and 11 degrees (52) Feb 1st CRAZY!! This is a pic over looking some roof tops and the Pacific ocean. Oh yeah did 85kms (53mi)
