summer riding plans?

[sunnydog]

I'm hoping some of ya are gonna get out on the scoots this year...any ambitious plans?

Ima prolly insure the Econo this week (April 7th), Cherrybomb is going on the lift for some much needed lovin, the ol horse needs a rubdown and some oats.

Ambitious - no. Just hope to be able to ride somewhere on the barge and meet up with my brothers.

The shovel needs some lovin', I'd better plate it and take it for short hops this year.

[sunnydog]

Youre welcome here anytime...I need a hand on the farm lol

[ratman]

I'm good at lighting fires and drinking :>)

I'm good at lighting fires and drinking :>)

well that's about the job description lol

[ratman]

I'm in then :>)

[sunnydog]

let's start work tomorrow morning at 6 then...Scotch for first coffee break at 9

[ratman]

That's a bit early for me sir. No drinks until the sun is above the yardarm.

I like to start work when the sun is nice and warm, something around 1pm is great.

[sunnydog]

you must be one them millenials bahahahahaha

[ratman]

Oh no sir.

I actually do work when required and don't live in my parents basement playing video games and collect CERB cheques from the Lieberals.

[sunnydog]

lol...I hope we can get together on a run this summer

Plans lead to disappointment when not fulfilled.
Had enough of that these last few years. My mates illnesses both real and potential have grounded me. A deterrent of a sort, in the form of a vaccine, is in the immediate future.
Now if my own failing health gets turned around, I may just get the Weerier out to test all the changes and maintenance that have been done to it over the last year.
Seems I remember a fair bunch of young lads out in the Kootenays that I've spent some enjoyable times with.I could use some enjoyable time ridin and BS'n again.

[sunnydog]

Let's hope we get a reprieve this year and can get together. The west Koots is a good meeting place, not a ton of people congestion there for the most part.

[kootenai]

id like to get to toad more than once this year it would be good to visit my mexico in the mountains..
i should have time now that i quit the band i was in,,good move i think...now im crankpin deep into my 45"'
im a shop hermit now fabbin tools for the project at hand and hiding out..........Take care out there..

[sunnydog]

Sad to hear you quit the band Koot, but I do look fwd to more time with ya’s this summer at Toad. Btw don’t forget there’s a mini Ike run on Grey creek pass this summer...I know you got a scoot there

[sunnydog]

Been riding to work a fair bit...on office days the Econo-Shovel, on field days the Austrian power bicycle (KTM).
this morning was sure a beauty...about 7-8 Celsius, clear and fresh.

[Dennman]

Miss those early morning rides to work.They definitely got my senses awake and ready for work.

[sunnydog]

Planning to do Toad July long...prolly riding down Friday w Coop, we shall see.

[Dennman]

Well I'll be missin another July 1st. That's the day I get my second poke of vaccine. From what I've read the side effects could be harsh for some people with good immune systems. Mine has been excellent in my younger,pre 70, years. Got the Weerier insured and have been out for a couple quick shakedown cruises. Everything seems to be workin well. The brakes are especially workin well after the work and bracket changes that I made. It's been almost 3 years since I last rode and am reaquaintin myself with all the skills and strength needed to tame the Weerier's strong heart. Hopefully by late July /early August I'll be headed for the Kootenays

[sunnydog]

I had the second shot and it wasn't too big a reaction...headache and some body aches for less than a day...hope you get on the high road soon Denn.

[ratman]

Good luck with your second shot Denn. I had Covid in January and my first shot in May (Pfizer) knocked me down for 18 hours. They told me my first shot will be like most people's second as I have some built up antibodies. Felt like I had Covid again.....

Won't be going to Toad as you know John. No food there, I wouldn't survive, lol. I'd be a walking headache with low blood sugar.

If'n you feel brave and take another couple days then head this way. The Twins are welcome - you could even drag Hammer along - his evo will prolly make the trip without breaking down :>)
