Happiest of Birthdays to both Rich & Clive...for another successful trip around the sun....

I remember going to Germany back in '15....only place a/c was allowed in in your car. Watched my G-son graduate from high school in an Opera House....sweat my balls off that day. Forecast'd for another 3-digit afternoon today...

101f here today....& 1 of our AC's went tits up...gotta new 1 coming by Monday. Sleeping in my birthday suit for awhile...

From back when Satch had hair....

Out for a sprint on the Mullet today... from the bottom of Hamburger Hill looking NW towards Elgin...

That looks tasty...

Same brand I used on my XS 400R, XJ 550, XT 600 & the RD 400f...

Nice bike but definitely NOT the desired color of Dildoness....

Pete would be proud....

I've had the Dbl-D's for years on my Shoei & Arai lids.... they do feel more secure. But now I've gotten used to the latch-type on my Bell....although it can sometimes be a PITA w/ my 5 thumbs on my LH....

For that kind of money, that boat anchor should be able to predict earthquakes....

My former wife (rest her soul) started out riding an earlier Sprint....she loved it as her Dad raced flat-track back then. I thought I'd won the lottery when I met her...being a Nurse who rode motorcycles & skied.

Finally got my GMC pickup running this morning after a sprint on the Mullet to start the day off....still gotta drop the bed back down on the frame & throw the hood on. It's running a little rough but seems to be due to the old fuel that's in it. Got some Sea Foam, fresh petrol & octane booster to hopefully smooth it out...

And then your alarm clock went off....

Had to wait till at least 7pm last night before I could tolerate the heat, but managed to have a sprint to the end of the Trail on the Rail & back...in time to enjoy the sun setting from my backyard....

Decent temp-fix when your wallet is light....& the bike is to be sold shortly after. I've replaced 3 different sets of steering head bearings on my Yamahas....all w/ tapered roller bearings & races...What a difference!

A buddy from high school does exactly that w/ this 800+ hp beast....

Nute's off to a good start w/ his entry... This one from Bob definitely woulda had Pete scrambling for his Prozac....

True statement.... My wife & her dog shed waaay more than my dog....no joke. Mrs. Hook has hair as long as mine used to be...& it never seems to stop growing...just like mine. Now her dog is another best friend of mine....she's a rescue...Chihuahua/Italian Greyhound mix who's almost 13 y/o & can run like a gazelle....circles around my dog who's only 7 y/o. She's such a character...goes absolutely ape-shit over spaghetti or tacos... I tell our friends that she's the fastest Chihuahua in the county....

FACT!! My "Shorkie" (ShiTzu/Yorkie) is my best friend....been through a helluva lot w/ me, former wife's illness & death...then moving 280 miles to Elgin. She's such a good girl....but she now thinks she owns the house & I just pay the bills. Our resident Security Guard always on duty.....

The Mercedes vans I saw in Germany were even bigger...
