And so my 2018's riding season has come to an end. Spent a very bright sunny day enjoying an all to brief ride. Then topped up the fuel etc and put the beast to bed. It was a sad day. But at least I got one more ride
All done for 2018

Gotta love living in the southeast!!!
As for my riding season, PR5 set #2 is coming soon to start the winter.
Sure is nice!
I’m thinking of getting in a ride up high before the snow closes the passes. Hiway 49 north from here ends very close to Lassen NP and I haven’t been there in a couple years. I’ll pass by historical towns like Sonora, Auburn, Grass Valley and Quincy. Now, to get the gumption to go, something I seem to be losing lately.

49 is a fantastic ride! I did that last month. If you head up to Lassen, not much farther to Burney Falls.
That’s true. Did you ride 49 to its end in Vinton at hiway 70? How was the road?
If it makes any difference, I do feel bad for you guys.Nothing personal. I hate you guys
I’m NY right now and is crazy how many guys are out on their bikes with 40’F temps combined with rain. I guess they are just trying to put as many miles as possible, before it really gets cold and snow hits them.

Almost. Took the leg of 89 that joins over to 70. Roads were excellent.

YUP... distinction where there is no difference...… u know whats funny... at my job there is a GREAT debate amongst us... u see.... many many city folk work there... and also the northerners... aka WOODCHUCKS... many a fistfight to crown a winner.... consensus I see is that the woodchucks are generally acclimated to HARD farm work conditions... BIG boyz.... but the city folk are just plain mean... u would be surprised how far meaness can take a skinny frail person////// jk…. and I spent 2 years living in Syracuse,ny.. and no joke man... winter lasts 8 months... it snows everyday(lake effect snow) and brutal windy and COLD... it toughens a person up... u gotta read the definition of woodchuck https://everything2.com/title/woodchuckIs that how they call desperate and crazy in these parts of the world?

Drove a truck for decades and sometimes would be driving along the St Lawrence on the Canadian side. I'd be listening to the radio in cold sunshine hearing about the roads being closed due to huge amount of snow!!!
