Trying to "re-learn" to play guitar has been a rough road since the accident 3 yrs ago,Bruce.I've kinda come to terms with the fact that it aint ever gonna be the same.

Happy Thanksgiving!




It's actually been in the 60s most the month even a few 70s. I haven't been riding though since i want to get some minor stuff done on the 1100 so I can get to really working on the 750.

Yeah... really sorry about that. I'm a semi-pro drummer here in Denver and I ....broke three of my toes late last year, including my big toe, ... and it was on my kick drum foot.
I feel ya, it took a really long time to get that back together.
Had to cancel 5-6 months of gigs and studio work before I could even think about it. It was this June and July this year before I could actually do a four-five hour gig. Still have problems.
Building amps, vintage refurbs and messing with the bikes helps though!
Keep a stiff lip brother.

Heading up to the high desert for TG. Down here it's in the 70's, up there the 50's. This weekend will bring rain up there so I'll be back tomorrow. Have a good Thanksgiving all our US guys and for the rest, Cheers B)

It was a very good trouble free year, as far as the bikes go anyway :dry:

I also managed a ride a week back.
Not bad for Canada.
Was too cold for a buddy, so he drove.
He did manage to take a video of me beside him.

Another riding day 30 Nov, 2016. 34F at 7:00AM, a sweltering 40F at noon. Once warm, the bike likes the cool weather.


Wind is out of the west. Rain is gone but where is the sunshine the weather girl promised.


Beats this though, 1 DEC 2008 May be something to that global warming.
