A little story to get you through these frozen weeks...
« on: January 02, 2018, 07:10:41 PM »
Like you guys, I'm undergoing AFBWS—acute frozen bike withdrawal syndrome.

So I thought you might enjoy a little wintertime bedtime story I wrote for my bikes (on my motoblog), which are in the garage right now dozing while they sip from their trickle chargers. It's called "Goodnight Vroom." (I think it pre-dated my Stornello, but there are some other characters out there in the garage.)

Hope you all enjoy it!

Thanks. The garage now has two more sleeping beauties...my V7II Stornello, and a 1974 BMW R75/6. I hope they keep each other company until spring. Couple times a week I go out to the garage to check the mouse traps, make sure the tenders are still trickling, and to pet the gas tanks. Except on the Vespa. I give her a pat on the seat.
