  • My test

    So my boss at my new job rides his bike-has rode throughout Canada and Nova Scotia several times. Next week weather permitting, he has said he wants to go to a place down the Jersey shore-Seaside to be exact. He rides a BMW set up for touring with the hard bags. I plan on taking my 80 SG for the ride weather permitting. He says he will avoid the parkway at all costs. I'm sure my XS is more than up for the task. I rode it today around town. The weather was a bit cooler. I will need to wear my gloves and a thicker jacket.

    Well it is supposed to rain this weekend again, I also have a possible cracked bone in my left wrist and it hurts if I grip something.

      That's going to make it hard to ride! Are you still going to go? I'll admit, riding through rain is certainly not my idea of fun. At least on a long scenic trip.

        The trip was not mentioned again. Boss has been sick with a bad cold and it rained. Was nice on Sunday though. My hand is feeling a bit better but dont want to push it.

          Hand is feeling a lot better. I must have pulled a muscle somehow during work. I can now grip things better. If the weather is nice tomorrow,I might take the bike for a ride. Starting to get a bit cooler out, and with that comes more cars on the road. 3 weeks ago,I took the bike out for a ride and spent 10 minutes in traffic not even a 1/4 mile from my Moms house.

            Being a full time motorcycle camper currently staying in the mountains of North Carolina it was 35° when I woke up this morning. Perhaps it's time to consider separating your motorcycle from your mom.

              Bike stays at Moms house so when I go there I can ride it. It will be going back to my storage unit around November. I have my ZRX 1100 in my storage unit now and dont have room to work on it with another bike in the way.

                Dude. You obviously need to get your priorities in order. First you need a garage at where you live. And you need to make sure it's big enough for ALL of you toys. Jk.

                  I have had a storage unit for years. Dont plan to buy a house-at least in N.J. That is what my Moms garage is for so I can work in that. Why is this an issue here?
