    Another Revelation



    The first Revelation was at roaring river. i cant ride as well as i once did..

    The second was today when i ran across this bunch.
    2 other Buells a 1000cc kawa and a Suzuki that had some sort of v twin in it. all crotch rockets.
    They road through some twisties never under 60mph and these were like I never saw before. and in Florida too.
    I got a car between me and the group. They waited for me at the stop sign and that was the last time i saw them. I guess took a wrong turn and ended up on a nowhere road that was dirt. Not for me. I asked directions on how to get to a main road and went home.
    Wow the newer bikes have some handlinf ability too as i saw it

      You do ride very well Scotty, and I know, because I rode behind you on the seat of the Buell, at Roaring River.

          2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

          Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                        Ever since I got hurt, I don't see anything very well !!! 8O :roll:
                        But, then again, I have that injury for an excuse !!!!

                        My mother used to say..."Honey, you think when you get older, you'll have it all figured out, and all your problems will be solved...Then you get older...and you find you have a whole set of new problems"....Boy, was she ever right !!

                          Just remember being over the hill means you've got the hard part done and now you cna just coast.

                              I'm not sure of anything that far away. With the contract thing hanging over our heads no one here has any idea of what next summer will bring. The old contract with the University of California has been extended until the end of May and after that the new contract and contractor take over.

                              The things that make it hard to plan anything are:
                              If I leave my retirement in the UC system will my vacation and sick time transfer over with the new contractor? We had heard statements both ways.
                              If I leave my retirement with UC will I have a job with the new company?

                              We really don't know anything for sure at this point and they are not even going to announce who the new contractor is until December.
