Speedy recovery to the ladies.

I have taken a look in here but no one seems to be here much.

How much did the heated gear set you back? My wife freezes on a sunny morning.

Hi Annie,

For the best multimedia (i.e. still images, audio and video) production, I'd recommend a Mac that runs Snow Leopard and the latest iLife apps.

Looking forward to seeing the movie.

Check out CycleGiant.com. Best price I could find and shipping was prompt. Had the gear shipped to a receiver just south of the border and went to pick it up. Beats the duties, taxes and fees charged to get stuff sent across the border. Now I need to order Tour Master heated pants for Lynda. The thing I like most about the TM stuff is it comes with a controller as standard equipment and not an added cost like other products. That in itself is a big savings and buys a lot of gas.

Decided to ride in this morning. Should have put on the lined jeans.

Good for you Bob. After work yesterday, I took the long way home and went to Richmond Motorsports where I bought the Nomad earlier this year. There were no 2010 Nomads, but a few other nice metrics were on the floor.

After a pleasant ride I got home and parked my Nomad for the season. It's been great riding the Nomad, enjoyed every mile.

The bike is insured all year, but added stabil after filling up today, threw the cover on, already put on the battery tender quick connects on. Looked at the 7 day forecast, perhaps should have traded the bike in on a boat.



What happen to that Harley you were checking over???
