Seriously???? 

I don't think I have enough rain gear for this.  LOL

Hey Corey, its almost time for the annual flurry ride.

Hey Corey, its almost time for the annual flurry ride. 

I'll put the snow tires on this weekend.

Seriously, tho... I'm hoping Saturday has some rainless moments so I can get out.  No better time to ride than the fall, if you ask me (OK... maybe the spring).  Well, the summer is pretty good, too...

I'm totally booked on Sunday (got to get out on the boat one last time, too).

Anyone planning on getting out tomorrow?

I am hoping for a few dry moments. Had the 16k service done and need to go pick it up. Hoping not to have to dodge the rain. Unfortunately, its not looking very good.

Is anhyone still riding? I actually got out for about 100 miles today. Bundled up and it wasn't too bad. I wanted to put the bike through the paces after having the 16K service done. Bike is running better than ever.

Hi all, just got back friday evening from vegas I got married on wednesday and it was perefect out there between 78 and 85 nothing but sun. Getting back to 39 and snow flurries its such a reality check.

Congrats Eric!! I feel your pain. I was in LA all weekend and was sitting at the Rose Bowl Saturday in 80 degree heat and looking at my phone where it read 35 and snow here. Needless to say i was a bit depressed to see the snow this morning. Not a good day to accidently sleep through the alarm and try to make up time on the road. 

Bank's Brothers, i am hoping i get one, maybe two, more days to ride this year, but i will need to get in touch with you about sotrage soon. May need to trailor the bike up this year.

Sounds good!

I went for a ride last Thursday (44 degrees) up to Moon Motors to take a look at some sport touring bikes.  Took a used ST1300 for a spin and after being on the Warrior then jumping on that... I think the Warrior will be for sale in the spring.  I had so much fun doing that trip to Utah I am looking for something that will let me do some longer distance touring a little easier than it is on the Warrior.  Of course the way the used bike market is and with that dealer in Osseo selling new Warriors for $8k - I might not be able to sell the Warrior for what I want...

Eric, Congratulations on the wedding!

 Anyone know the best place to get snow tires for a Warrior???

Snow sucks.  I just hope there is not too much salt on the roads so I can ride a bit more this year....

Congrats Eric! Time for a side car...ha ha.

I'm gonna do a run through the leaves with my wife on Sunday.  Temps look good.

Maybe a few more weeks of riding???

 Hope you fellas got out on the bikes today, I was chompin at the bit to go, worked thru lunch break to leave early for a ride...and ride I did. Took her up to 120 for the first time, then I went to my peg scraping road and hit a few swarms of ladybugs...my face looks like I got in a fight with a bowl of spaghetti-o's, fortunatly I don't have a camera or there would probbably be a stupid pic of me covered in orange bug guts flying around the internet.
