76 Convert hits the road - first time in 2019
« on: February 23, 2019, 03:43:32 PM »
Usually I'm able to ride at least a few days in each month. Not this year. This is my first ride of 2019.

made me smile...for soon enough.

Nice looking bike... :thumb: :thumb:

Nice!!  My days of riding in snow are done..  Been there many times though. Many years riding every month of the year. Always had to plow a path to the garage just in case there was a nice day, but not nice enough to melt the snow...
