Title: Happy Riding Season
Post by: commuterdude on April 22, 2009, 03:18:01 PM
Hey fellow GS'rs, looks like we have 5+ days of 75+ degree sunshine coming to my locale, so I am officially opening riding season (been riding all year so far anyhow LOL), and hoisting a double shot of Don Julio Anejo to your all, PEACE and have a great season!

I was out riding last Saturday in the sunshine, blasting past bikes costing 15 times as much as my GS and having a bunch more fun than they were! Here's to a long and safe riding season for everyone  :cheers:

Yeah the weather here's been alternating between rainy and insanely nice, but just today did I finally get my bike back together from fixing stuff from dumping it.  Now it appears I have carb issues, but I'm gonna get the darn thing going soon...

Yeah, didn't feel much like riding season out here in Los Angeles. Felt more like riding into an oven!

We don't even have traditional seasons here. We have rainy season, fire season, earthquake season and riot season. They don't always follow the normal calendar, but if you live here long enough, you'll experience all of them at one point or another... Cool thing is: you can ride in all of them. Even when it is raining, it is never so bad you can't ride...
