finally a ride Friday morning on a Moto Guzzi
« on: June 18, 2015, 07:53:54 PM »
All,

So a three day weekend, I am pretty much over 19 days of virus infection, the weather here on the TEXAS Gulf Coast looks like it is not going to be a tropical deluge, and I have a gorgeous 2012 Moto Guzzi V7R (No. 181) in the garage ready to roll first thing Friday. 
Damn I need to get out.  Grumpy is my middle name with the combo of sick, no sunshine, and no window to ride.  Little Goose gets the nod,  maybe later the Trumpet.  Life is looking up?  Makes for a good Father's day weekend, beats the crap out of lying on the couch with the poodles wheezing, coughing and spewing crud.

All,

Thanks guys, it feel great to be healthy again.  Geared up and ready to roll.  Yep, V7R winked at me.  Close to a perfect riding day, not too hot, overcast, no wind.  Two tanker very likely.

Also going to watch and meet Tom at local track tomorrow.  Not doing it myself this time, but will add moral support, take pix and get an impression.
