Default Where is everyone today?

Where is everyone today? I can hear the crickets chirping. It seems like me and Suzukigirl are the only ones in the forum today.

Don't you hate that?

My marching orders for today were to clean house... which has been completely neglected while we've been trying to make some headway cleaning up my wife's mother's old house. So far, we've had to have the 22'x8'x6' construction skid emptied once, and if if we go back tomorrow it'll have to be emptied again this next week!!

I just got done doing a stage one carb mod. My 60 second, 20 degree test ride showed great results. I'm still hoping my new pipe shows up today.

I'm hangin out watching it pour! Really sucks. Had to pick up my son at the airport today. The usual 20 minute drive took 1 1/2 hours due to all the flooding. One spot I-5 was up over the guard rails! The entire freeway had to merge to the emergency parking and squeeze by where it was only about 2 feet deep! We are more than 3 times our normal rainfall already! I want the sun back!

Knew there was a reason I was happy to leave Nc, the weather there could never make up its mind. Kinda crazy in Fl as well, but atleast it usually predictable. Summer time it rains for 30 minutes at 4pm daily.

I've been to Florida a few times on business and that is one thing that I definitely remember. The sky was clear and sunny and then out of nowhere it got dark and poured for about half an hour. Then it cleared up like nothing happened. It seemed to happen every day, just like you said.

Well, I met a group of people from a Swiss motocycle forum at the SwissMoto show, then we all went out for pizza afterwards ... I got home about 2:00am this morning after a 45 minute drive through show on the Swiss Autobahn ... Had alot of fun, though!

Have you ever ridden in snow with temperatures in the upper 20s? No one ... except the stunters in front of the convention center ...
