So it's the day before Christmas and I'm selling this TT-R 90 I took in on trade. We're out in the driveway - I'm in a pullover and tennis shoes. The liitle bike fires right up but won't run off choke just yet, so it's idling high.
The dad isn't really a rider, so I click it into gear to show him how easy it will to ride for his kid. Part way down the street to the right the asphalt is still snow covered from being in the shade. To the left into the cul-de-sac the cars have packed the snow into a high sheen. Can't help but think of Ed, so I do about a 20ft circle then back into the driveway. Discretion is supposedly the better part of valor. Have a Merry Christmas guys, and be safe!

I have to tell you. Today I took the kids out to ride there dirt bikes and I take mine along to jet it for the winter. Well, I to remember Ed and put on my boots, helmet and gloves. Well my wife meets us after she gets off work. I get a wild hair up my bum to try and impress my young beautiful wife and relive my youth by getting the bike on it's back wheel. I panic at the last second after about a 30 ft. wheelie and flip the bike over and eat a dirt sandwich. To bad I didnt put on the elbow and knee pads and my padded shorts. I think my ego was bruised more then me, but oh well! Be safe everyone and have a Happy Holiday! |

The 2nd one was not far from Houston, and it was fun too, would have been more so if I had not tried the class with the torn rotator cuff. Picked up a bunch of different stuff there this time with it dry. We did a lot more trail work and the grinding stuff, never got the hang of grinding a telephone pole Overall, it really made me realize just how much i suck.
