Portuguese Clout....

Was out Riding earlier today....up Cemetary rd. & back down to Indian Cr. rd. & was surprised to find an Airplane parked in the middle of the road.... turns out that the pilot was on his way to TX from Seattle...& had some mechanical malfunctions of some type...had to make an emergency landing. He brought the plane down safely, avoiding any power lines....tbh- he picked a good spot to land it as that road has minimal traffic & is close to Hwy 82 @ the south edge of Elgin. Definitely not something we see everyday around here....

Congrats Pedro....great to see that you've got your steed back.

And then your alarm clock went off....

Been feeling the aftermath of that Bomb Cyclone that hit the Seattle/Vancouver BC area this week....windy as hell....& coming down in buckets earlier this morning. Finally calming down as I type this. After shooting tequila w/ the Mrs last night....definitely have a nap in order today. Possibly get a Ride in later though...

Over to the left side of OR in June for the 15th annual Hangar Dance @ an old friend's place in Boring (sister town to Dull Scotland)...for real, look it up. He's a CEO of a helicopter service w/ 3 Bell Ranger choppers @ his own FAA approved property along the Sandy river near Mt. Hood. This time of year, he's been slinging Christmas trees for the last 32 yrs. A coupla live bands & plenty of food & a car show top off that 3-day event. Always great to see a handful of old friends from back in the day. Hopefully, the misses & I will also make a trip to MN to see my parents & brother...as well as visit her relatives in ND before that awesome party.

As stated earlier....Lesson well learned-- & w/ NO injuries...BIG plus.++ You've definitely got some decent neighbors there. Now Shadow can further her biking experience by helping Dad re-assemble her steed. She's quite blessed to have Dad's experience @ hand for a resource.

Says the guy w/ an XT shod with gay tires...

Looks like the wet type of snow there Clive....19F here this morning & snowing yet again....gotta finish some updates for our church website, then fix a flat front tire on my bike. Feeling kinda motivated now to finish tuning my Skis as well...

It's snowed here that last 2 nights....off & on today with more on the way...

Glad I took advantage of the crispy-cold morning....we're now due for rain & snow the next few days.... & par for the course, I now have a flat front tire that I need to repair ....should be a bit easier to do w/ my new addition to the garage...

Was thinking the same....been around the block a few times. Bet it's a kick to ride

19F here this morning.....cloudless sky....time for a Ride!

& thats the factory routing too.... Good thing he "GooseNeck'd" the frame to fit his knuckle-draggin' stature ....might help a bit w/ the tank overheating.

Dr.'s appointment this morning....gotta get a new script written for Parts & Repairs on the hook.....Cyborgism carrying on--

Finishing touch w/ a custom skid-plate & titanium fasteners....

Sincerest condolences Pedro..... he'll be waiting for you on the other side.

Wishing a speedy recovery for Ersilla there Bob.... 20F this morning....just a bit warmer for the next few days....sun's out & I'm not missing the opportunity for another Ride....

She's a Pirates Dream......Sunken Chest Probably why she's a bum girl.

After waking up to some frigid 17F temps....turned out to be a glorious day weather-wise....too nice Not to get a Ride in....

That SM version looks like a fair amount of Fun to ride....

Woke up to 17F here....but no snow yet. Gotta take the Equinox in for an oil change today...that way it's documented for the "Forever Warranty" that we have on it.
