Tomorrow, it gets a wash and I'll take a look at getting the cruise working again.

This weekend is a long weekend. Got plans to take line out for an essential ride.

Iff'n I didn't mention it before, I have a used set here that maybe can be pried from my cold hands, or I drop them off on a future trip to Sharbot Lake (which may be upcoming in a coupla weeks).

Rode it to work this morning. Weather forecast for today calling for the first 80 degree day here since October! Just called my credit union and transferred the money to pay off my bike loan. The insurance claim from our accident at EOM last September finally paid up so I now own my '14 free and clear!

Yes.

They reorganized teams at work. My new manager rides, so he should understand.

Let’s meet in Muscle Shoals. It’s just under 500 for both of us. Tishomingo works too.

I know we can find a few good roads and shampoo on the way down.
I often have found myself when I was not looking, nor did that discovery take place where I thought it would!

Installed FOBO tpms. Had a little trouble getting the app but the mfr helped me out with a direct link. Was a little peeved at first trying to initialize comms but so far so good. I like the little locknut they come with.

The mail person delivered a front Fenda Extenda by Pyramid Plastics. A new battery arrived for my aging Garmin 590 today too. The old battery wasn't holding a charge well.

RODE HER FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THANKSGIVING!

Got the new fairings installed -- color match is perfect -- buttoned up all the pieces, and rode her for 30 minutes. Aux lights work, my seat heater works, and new wiring doesn't catch on anything. Will check pillion seat heater tomorrow.

Waiting on the automotive paint shop to get me a deep black with gold metalflake for the hardcases and useless vents.

YIPPEE!

Been using FOBO for a few weeks now! You will love it!! It's awesome to be able to check right on your phone!

Sure that would be great. If I don't see you out my way I'm likely heading down to your neck of the woods as soon as there's a couple of nice days. Will call ahead

I got an extra set of batteries in the box. Good thing. Both sensors came on finally but both show nearly dead batteries. Maybe that's why I had such a terrible time getting them initialized. I was getting ready to throw it all in the trash.
