Haven't been on the bike much at all lately, holidays, family, eating, work, weather.
Today I played hooky and got in a few miles. Man, does it ever ROCK to be ridin when the rest of the world is workin !
Got new super-black shields for the helmets, new gloves, and one of those fan doo-hickies that lights up with the wind and stuck it to ma lid. LOVE IT !
The gs has been sitting in 30F weather, unused for a couple weeks, fired on the first bump of the starter. Man, gotta love a dependable bike ! :D
Amen. I'm lookin for another one soon because I miss my old one that much. give her some love and she'll never let ya down.
Oh man I was thinking of getting some of those cheesy fan thingies. They sell them on dealextreme.com for like 3 bucks.
can some one post a link to the fan. i went to the site but couldnt find it. thanks

There it is. If you've never ordered from them before keep in mind it'll take about three weeks to get here to the US

Here's a nicer one. Took me a while to find it but it's got a tail fin.
this is the doo-hickey i got. it's cheesy, but you just never know it might save a life:

takes about 2 mph worth of air flow to send it spinning and run the bright led's. the wife said it was screaming "HELLO I"M HERE !" as I went by on the bike.
on newenough.com they're like $4.99 or $9.99. i'm ordering another one for the wife's helmet. we may look like goobers with these things on, but at least there will be another couple lights on our tours ! :)

Sounds good :) Might I ask if you can post a picture of that wind powered light thingy (Doo-hickie :P) as it is attached to your lid ? :)
