Limited Guzzi content.  Ok, took the V7R up to Mike and Larry at MPH this morning.  By the way, spare a thought for Mike.  He was on crutches with a foot brace:  fell off roof cleaning gutters.  Otherwise fine and thriving.  Bike is in for its 14,000 mile maintenance.  Glad to see Moto Guzzi sign still out front.  Mike had some very cool old BMW bikes on the floor:  restorations?  Need to ask.

Ok, pondering more riding today.  Houston weather has been "unsettled" for months:  lots of fronts here and there, and unstable onshore Gulf of Mexico flow:  erratic, and sometimes very intense pop up storms.  We had one last Saturday here in Sugar Land in the afternoon:  maybe 2 inches of rain in an hour, and streets immediately filled and flooded. Very ugly on a bike.

Enjoying the cooler temperatures remaining end of May though.  We will broil soon.  La nina flips can help induce an active hurricane season?  We are overdue.  Wish I understood seasonal climate patterns better.  Meteorology fascinates me. 

Ok, time to decide if I want to risk a storm or not.  Triumph is waiting, and I still have my gear on.
