December

Well here we go again last Month of the year and would really like to turn around this bad trend on riding I have seen since October. So the first thing I did was e-mail some friends on getting out and riding December 4th. I was getting good responses and it looked like 4-5 of us were going to get out for a little ride. I was hoping for a 150-200 mile ride maybe getting a beer afterwards. Well Friday rolled around and so did the weather, a cold front rolled in and when we met up at my favorite starting location "Mule Barn" it was single digits and no one really wanted to ride. We all just hung out had breakfast swapped stories and finally headed our own way. I decided to ride to the motorcycle shop and pick up a oil and K&N air filter, I figured I would at least get a few miles in and hope for better weather for next weekend.

This ended up being a good weekend to decorate the house for Christmas, we hung lights outside and put up the tree.

I have to omit that this has been the first day in many that I didn't ride the FJR to work, they are calling for rain and snow and I just don't want to deal with it. I have been checking forecast and the weather looks like it is turning bad, might not see any riding for a couple of weeks.

WOW this week just keeps on getting better, the weather has took a turn for the worse a little snow and rain mix but hey looking on the bright side my son completed his first level in the boy scouts and has completed his review and will be moving up. Ok maybe not motorcycle relevent but much more important. I also received some bad news Eddie James passed away (motorcycle accident)I personally did not know Eddie just met him around good guy and a great rallymaster. Times like this always reminds me ride defensively. Everyone enjoy the ride but be safe.

Well until next week Ride safe
