        Happy easter everyone for the next hour here on the east coast. Yesterday was a better day for riding in upstate ny. I got the bike out for the first time and rode 130 miles. Average temperature was probably ~82 F. I rode from Ithaca NY to Oswego NY and had a nice cruise up along Cayuga Lake, RT 89. Once I reach the norther part of the lake the air temp was probably ~40 F because the pursistent wind coming off the water. Today was a little cooler, only clocked ~20 miles. I hope this coming week remains nice.

          Easter weather was crap down this part of the world , always is, but had the bike out yesterday anyway . Took the boy for a blast down some country roads before he got cold and wanted to come home. Spent today mothballing the beast for winter. I dont usually do that as I generally keep riding, but due to a surgeons f**k up last year I get my leg broken again in three weeks so I wont be riding this winter.

            That sucks, Brian. Break his leg, too, then you'll both be able to share some laughs this winter. Well, at least one of you anyway!
