howdy

Uh oh

Holy shit!

It's next year already!

The worst part was when I woke up with a sore butt hole

Morning all.

Sure got cold here quickly.

32 degrees this morning. Where's that global warming I keep hearing about?

I had cataract surgery on Monday.

I think it went pretty well.

I plan to return to Maggie Valley again soon. Posting a link to an article by Road Runner Magazine as a reminder/refresher. A GPX file has also been uploadedin the GPS Routes area of the forum.

Is it Friday already?

Yeah, time flies eh?

I hope everyone had a merry and peaceful Christmas

Harley usually keeps these things top secret. Somebody leaked it early.

Lights on the tour pak (now called a Grand Tour Pak), and rear speakers. Might have to loo a little closer at these....

Morning all.

Weather site says we'll have a low of 60 today. It's 46° right now.

Have a great day!

Finally getting some rain in Texas, either later today or tomorrow. Can't complain about the 80 degree temps though.

Sounds a lot like here. Mike. Low 50, high 81

Any updates on baby and mom?

Morning all.

36° when I woke up this morning. I think I have to move farther south

Happy Friday everybody!

And Happy International Merlot Day!

It's nice to see they haven't totally discarded those of us who actually do touring on our touring motorcycle. To be unveiled January 14.

Very nice returns, Mike!

I'm doing OK, but like you I spend a lot of time researching and monitoring. About the same as last year so far. I'm getting killed this week, though.

Party time!

Well, it didn't take long. Yesterday I was supposed to leave for Cloudriders. I say supposed to.

I had a doctors appt early, and thought I would come home, pack up and go. Appointment took longer than expected, and when I got home Kat was in a panic. Max's right leg was swollen and he couldn't ...

So far this ...
