    Can you still hear inline 4 engine sounds screaming through your head? I usually can the next day in my cube and it really magnifies the suck for me.

    Thought you were gonna say you got bagged on the parkway with that trailer
    Anybody know definitively if non-commercial trailers are allowed on the Merrit parkway?

    I only saw one little sign that said "automobiles only" ... and I mean little sign. The lawyer in me said: "I can beat that if I get bagged." Insufficient notice.

    Working with bikes everyday doesn't make it any easier. I have been jonesing since the ride back from NHMS Sept 30th. Now it's like all of the bikes are mocking me.

    ^True... I didn't get to go boarding once last winter... I'm hoping to remedy that this winter for sure. Between that and wrenching on bikes, should help pass the time

    Chris...great to see you as well. Let's hope for mild weather. I'm going to keep my street bike insurance active just in case.

    Nah, I don't do that shit...too dangerous



    It was a bad moment realizing the R6 was being put away for 6 months. I'll be donning the cold weather gear on the triumph for a while longer though!

    Re: Well, this sucks

    with 4 bikes and gear to off load @ 3AM I was stoked to see we got done in enough time for me to get a half hour nap before having to shower and get to work

    I still haven't touched the other 3 even though one is calling me .... 50's - 60's is still good riding weather just ahve to watch for the leaves falling

    NESR... New England Snow Riders? LOL....


    Seriously, though... we should organize some trips. I only went once last year . I think I might retry learning how to board.
