    Flipped Odometer Today!

    The weather up here in The Great White North has been less than conducive this year to exercising my XS up until now. I was able to get around to getting something done that I ran out of weather to do last fall. Parked her last year with just under 100k km and was only able to flip the odometer today. Yes, yes I know that's only 62k miles but I still regard it as personal accomplishment. Bought new, it's taken 46 years (19 of which under a tarp in the garage) as me being the only butt on the rider's seat. A little disappointed that it didn't magically morph back to a brand-new bike but It still pulls like a train, starts with one push on the button and makes me smile. Thanks again to all contributing forum members for your guidance in bringing this Phoenix back from the ashes. As long as I'm still upright, breathing and physically capable, this love affair will go on. Keep the rubber side down!
