    Good for you man. I'm still waiting for a couple rain storms, the street sweepers, and 5-10 degree average temp increase. I should be out for my first run by the 2nd week of april.

    Well, technically I had my first run when I drove my bike back from the dealership 3-4 weeks ago. But DAMN was it cold. My fingers were frozen.

    Seen the street sweeper out the past 2 days here, he needs to make about 4 passes down each road to get all the sand! Once I get my wheels back from powder coating, I'm on the road

    Gino,
    the street sweepers were out in Wallaston Monday night. We're supposed to have rain tonight and tomorrow. I'm doing the last few touches on my gixxer tomorrow night. You ready to start posing in 2 weeks?
