38o miles for me today and it looks like I'm in need of a new rear tire soon. starting to get that line in the center.
Maybe if you slowed down and smelled the roses your tires would last longer!

We goofed around on the bikes for quite some time (on Sunday). It was very nice. Today I took the bike to work but the mercury was towards the low end of the glass tube. I used my vented Held gloves coming in and was about was about a half mile short of frozen fingers when I pulled up to my parking spot. It's still gives me a kick!  jc

Rode every day last week and today too. Life is back to normal finally. This weekend should be a trip somewhere in the 1200 mile range too.  It's time to head south for some real warmth in Kentucky and Tennessee. I'm hoping to make the Michigan lunch on Sunday coming home from southern Indiana.

Around the block to test the new V-Stream on the RT. Can't tell any diff at low speeds. Working midnights all week. Ride to work is not even worth taking the bike out. Too many potholes.

Well not today, yesterday. 410 miles in a little under 6 hours. It was a slab ride to get in shape for a SS1000. Weather was great other than Illinois State Police the roads weren't to busy. Riding at 10mph over the limit the police would pass me and I just waved.
