Hey strangers!!! Well I finally got somewhat of a stable schedule, aka no more 19-24 hour workdays :) You DO remember me don't you? I still have the Ass-clot,uh I mean Ascott, however I just bought a XJ600, it's quite a bit zippier :)

I'm looking forward to riding with everyone again real soon, I miss all you guys.

Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full.   CS? WC3? COD? T:V?  UT2k4? BF:1942? DC? BF:V?

ahh but you see I have the full-blown rain gear, water gets ON but doesn't get IN :)

You know what I find funny is, there were clear skies, perfect weather, until 1 week before I finished the new bike (well, it's not FINISHED, but ridable now). The SAME week that my wife's car broke, she has to use mine and I am forced to ride the old Ascot if I wanna leave the house. I think there is some kinda government conspiracy against me.....

When is this rain crap gonna stop!? Last time I checked, we lived in California...didn't we?

I have all the rain gear, and all the rain-x/rain-off/mink oil/rain stop stuff I can find and I still ended up getting wet!  Very wet.  Let me put it this way... I was wearing a tank top, a t-shirt, a long sleeved shirt, a quilted jacket, my leather jacket, and then my rain jacket.  I was wet down to my t-shirt when I got home!  And the trucks just love to wiz past you and get you with their tire-spray!

Praise the bike gods for letting the sun out!   The one good thing about the rain week(s) is that I had a car during the worst of it.  No, don't get your hopes up, my car is not fixed, more like my bike decided not to start and I had to rent a car.

Bike is all better now, just dirty carbs, clogged fuel line, weak battery and disintergrated air filter.  They guy at the shop said my bike was acting like it had been sitting for a long time.  I am beginning to disbelieve what the previous owner told me about how much he babied the bike.  Hmmmmmmm...
