After Todd pussed out and got a flat (heheheh) Devyn and I had a pretty sweet ride out to Chester County. We came across this older guy while stopped at the bar (no ride’s complete without one of those) who was pretty cool. The guy new SO much about bikes, Superbike, and MotoGP it was crazy. It was refreshing to run into someone who knows the sport as opposed to answering the same old questions (What kind of bike is that? Is it fast? How much did it cost? etc.). Awesome day. I can’t wait for the next one!

I have gotten a fair amount of the kinks worked out, but so far its only been warm enough to put a little over a 100 miles on the bike. But its been ripping! No flat spots, feels solid. It was smoking a little, but i figured out it was a carb sync issue, which I have adjusted the best I can and its not smoking anymore… but more on that on a later post.

I got it from accuweather.com, which I find to be a little more accurate than weather.com (weather channel). I posted that yesterday around 10:30 AM, so the weather report is bound to change at least a half dozen times before next week. 😉
