Got out on the KLR for a couple hours today. Just enjoyed the local roads.

Deer hunting must be nice in Tennessee. It doesn't get real cold and it looks like there are actual trees there.

Rode to DMV to get my plates today. After i went for a short ride. It was the first time since I got the bike I felt comfortable riding and an amazing time. Anyone remember their first time on the bike when their heartrate was normal they were able to just 'ride'. 46 miles

It was dry out today so I took the bike out for a quick spin around the neighbourhood. I think I'll replace the handlebars, it didn't quite feel the way it used to.

Rode up to the Chevy dealer at Guntersville and looked at the new Camaros. Total distance for the day was 21 miles.

I like the way the new Camaros look, but I'd have to sit in one to see if it's doable. I've heard it's an odd beast ergonomically: Both short and tall people don't like it. The SS weighs more than 4000 lbs too, which is a whole lot for a "pony car". I've owned two Camaros, a 1983 and a 1984. Neither weighed more than 3100-3200 and that one had a V8.

HaHaHa, you fooled me . . . I don't usually bug this thread, but I saw Ponch on the list and went Hope you heal well and soon big guy.
I ride any/every day that I want too. Weather is beautiful here this time of year. Rode over 200 miles this weekend.
