Spring Riding Is Over 4 Me

Before it really got started my spring riding is now over. I work on an as need basis for FEMA and my team is now going to NC to assist with the tornado clean up. Soooo, the Nomad is back in "storage", with he battery plugged in and the dust cover on her. When I get her back out, it will be time to make the run to MV for the Rally.

Hate to hear that your spring riding season is already over before it started Bill. Be safe in NC and I'm sure there will be many there happy to see you.

You should have taken your bike to NC, then go straight to the rally when your cleanup is done. ;)

That a good reason to miss some riding. Too bad you can't take your bike with you. Some good riding in NC. Good luck and thanks for what you're doing.

There are lots of reasons for not being able to ride.

If I ever have input into that choice, I hope it's for a reason like yours. Do well, sir.

You'll be back in no time.......its bad where it hit....but it's not the whole state...isolated areas....

Let me know where you are and I'll buy you lunch or a beer after work.......I am also in and out of the affected areas working.
