              I wanted to post this yesterday but didn't finish with the pictures I wanted until today. For the first time in about a year though the GS550 saw pavement instead of the GSF1250SA (hey, both are GSs and Suzuki). That's right, this finally made its way out of the garage and over to my place

              I took advantage of the short amount of dry and warmth we had yesterday and went to the Art Institute downtown to see what was outside there. Found this spire called Pathway that looked nice:

              and this strange display called Faith Lift

              Unfortunately, the clouds rolled in pretty soon after I got there and I headed home getting to the garage just as the rain started. However, We had a sunny afternoon today which meant I got away for a couple of hours.

              Just glad the 550 is back on the road

                Like the pics, Scott.
                I am a fan of large outdoor art installations. A quick Google search turned up the stainless steel Pathway piece was done as a tribute to the Wright Bros.

                Don't mind the look of the blue wheels. Would like to see it with a blue tank as well.

                  I had it at one time but then had to replace the tank and never got around to fixing the dents it came with or repainting it as I said I would. One of these days I will.

                  Here’s one from a few years ago with the old tank.

                      Thought of doing a Jedz Run today.
                      Suppose to be 50 or so in a couple days.
                      But now govenor announced "StayAtHome" order starting this evening. (lets not discuss that here).

                      So maybe might get out this afternoon.
                      Or maybe in next couple days take the bike with lower seat height, cuz the order does allow going for a walk.
                      Why not? Jedz would.
                      Current Bikes:
                      2001 Yamaha FZ1 (bought same one back)

                        It finally warmed up enough to go for a after work ride. Then tomorrow, I'm taking a vacation day and riding all day. Figured I'd better get it in now, who knows, next week I could be sick in bed... Remember when motorcycles were dangerous..." Stay safe folks.

                          Did 80 miles after work tonight on the GS trying out some new roads before heading back home. Sure was nice to be out while the weather was warm and dry

                            Well, nothing big, but I rode up to Petsmart to pick up a new food bowl for one of the parrots.

                                Maybe could have gone for a shortride, but not warm enough to wash bike afterwards (roads wett).
