    Early spring, 100 mile ride on the Tuxman SCR250!




    Took some of my favorite back roads!

    Very sloppy, Mud season is in full swing up here!

    The 700's do pretty great on this stuff!!!

    Clean and dirty....

    Momma Connie keeping her eye on the little one!

    The map of my route. Nice to easily and comfortably rack some muddy miles today on the TUX!





    I will likely grab the 705's sooner vs later, I like the knobby 700's but they aren't lasting worth crap....




    Maybe I should stop burning out

      ^^^^Cool Pics recently!
      I just went for very short ride today, wish I had gotten a pic when the rain drizzle first started, HUGE lightning bolt ahead , so rolled around block. (would've been a cool pic).
      Seemed like a chain reaction all the other loud bikes running around the residential streets just as rain began (maybe racing to get in before rain(?))

      Unseasonably warm and sunny, great. had kids alone so had to wait. cooked on BBQ (Figured one last use before scrapping it, didn't have the heart to disassemble it...) until couldn't take it any longer, felt need to work the brakes, rotate the clutch whatever...everything good as before winter (My GSX1100G).

      Getting ready to head down to Outer Banks, NC for new job/ hopefully better life basically...
      Read that vehicles 35 years or older are EXEMPT from state inspection and emissions(In NC).
      Huge coincedence the Mercedes I'm picking up is an '82 , needs door/window motor put back, defog blower and turn signal works manually (LOL, as in click the lever by hand)...No prob./rush looks like now !
      (Once seller uncovers the title, URGH!)

      Crazy how I've gotten used to riding across the grass, around trees, down curb etc. on the large 1100, no problem really. Seems odd, Easy like a bicycle or a horse off-road ,IDK.
      Fork seal leaked too much to ignore on one side so trying to study up...Planning on bringing bike with me on trip down/ ...
      Been taking a break from trying to sort out/pack my precious junk, planning trip.
      Looks like there's a bike week AND a bike show in OBX. the main one is Harley's, run by the Harley Dealer BUT the "metric" trophy looks like went to a Suzuki last year...Hoping maybe I'll be able to announce a date and location, for anybody interested, IF it looks any good this year ...things are still uncertain for me at this point still.
      Mssg. too long (again)...

        Justin, that little 250 is awesome!

        The headlight was from Chaparral, if I recall. I want a train light in the future, I think. Not sure yet.

          Thanks! On both statements!

          Looks like a TU250X stock headlight, why I was curious.

          I mean I am always open to trades

            Ahhh, finally broke that 3 mile hurdle did we? Hang in there, you can likely break the 4 barrier by this time next year with a little determination and hard work. LMAO

              unseasonably warm the other day. seems to be a trend these days. my first ride this year. me and the ugly went to the electrical supply store and then to letchworth park.



              they're building a new railroad bridge to replace the old iron trestle from the 1800's. you can see some of the machinery about half way down the cliff. i need get closer and see how they did that. didn't have time.






              the river was going pretty good from a very hard rain and lots of snow melt.

                    Took the only Suzuki I have out. The DR. But worth the work.



                    Dug her out of the barn and took her for a short ride. Come on spring.

                      That's pretty sad indeed when you have to dig snow to get your bike out. Great pics though.

                              A short ride down south turned into, well not so short. I intended to go to Belen about 40 miles south but missed the exit and the next, and the next hahaha. Wound up in San Antonio, NM not TX. I saw my gas gauge needle go passed the red mark and approach the E. Not a comforting feeling but now at least I know I can get over 200 miles per tank.



                              Back in town and stopped for some lunch. Sonic drive in, yum!
