Happy B-Day Robert!! Even if it is almost over! Hope you got to at least relax and ride a few miles. Its going to be single digits here tonight, so I might just hold against you if you don't ride while you can!!

Old bikers never die, they're just out of sight!
My recently re-built, hopped up '79 Special caught fire and burned everything from the top of the engine up: gas tank, wiring, seat, & melted my windshield all over the front of the bike.
Just bought a 1980 Special that has been non oped for 9 years. My Skoot will rise from the ashes and be re named "The Phoenix!"
I've been riding since 1959.Comment

Cobia,
Sorry to be sending this late, but I hope you had a great Birthday!
Also sorry to hear your a bit under the weather. Hope by now you feel better.
BTW, those lowers are definitely on the ole XJ right now!
Skiatook got 18" of snow last week that stayed around... then we got another 12" last night!
Right now, all I'm doin' is shoveling snow... and me and my poor achy back's about to get sick of it! LOL
Bet things are different down in sunny Florida though, right?
Anyway... hope gettin' another year older wasn't too painful!

Thanks all!!
Feeling a lot better after several days on antibiotics. Well enough to at least run some errands on the bike and taking the long route everywhere..
We've been having great WX around here lately although with a few showers.
Your blood kind of thins out around here and if the temps dip below 60 degrees you have to bundle up, kind of a pain the *ss.
I know, I know, I'm a pansy about this.... so I just pile it on and ride anyway.
Just hated missing the Key West ride 
Thanks for all the good wishes and encouragement. Will be riding again soon, and restoring the XJ, and the boat, and the truck, and......
Anyway, deep thanks to all.1980G Standard, Restored

I missed you on the Key West ride. Much warmer than Last year. Good fun. I too am back to some long deferred maintenance. Getting some done, but missing out on some great riding weather. I warned the XSives from the great white north that you FL riders have a very different idea of what cold winter weather is. hope to see you in the fall @ TWO again.
