First ride of the year
« on: February 04, 2020, 02:46:48 PM »
The roads have been nasty all winter. Today they were dry enough that a quick 40 mile spin to make sure my new clutch was working properly was a viable proposition.  The thermometer struggled up to 5c (41f) - just nice and cool, and even the wet spots in the shadows were liquid, so quite safe.  Man, it felt good!

I took my first ride of the year on Sunday. North central Wisconsin has been very snowy again. 44 degrees and dry roads so the Bonneville came out. 63 miles of smiles. Now if I can only get down to the Moto Guzzi dealer to check out that V85TT.

      Hey Nick, I shouldn't say it too loud,but it's been a relatively easy winter,not too cold and not a lot of snow; hopefully an early spring, because that's when I'll be out riding,lol :laugh:

      Glad to see that you're keeping the mystique of the Crazy Canucks alive and well; good on you!  :thumb:  :bow:

      Ride safe
