Default NoVa kids - where the hell are you?

Wedneday, Thursday, and today - i've been the only two wheeler on the road - and in my parking lot at work. Haven't even seen the BMW guys out. I can understand yesterday with the rain and what not - but for everyone else, did the season really end already?

Still riding... but neck problems have kept me off the bike since last week Should be good to go in another week or so.

Corsa III's + cold = the suck. They're almost worn out, so a good burnout should finish 'em off so I can pick up something else.

Checking in, and riding every day. Yesterday, I rode into work on the HOV with one dude on a BMW K75 and another on a Goldwing. I'm going to start looking for a set of winter gloves for when it gets nasty cold.

Coleman charges $50-60 off the bike. Probably another $50-75 to do it on the bike.

Nice, I'll have to talk to you when it comes time to buy more shoes for the Feej. I was there tonight at closing buying a jacket for my brother's birthday.
