Title: In the books..... Post by raydawg on 07/07/17 at 20:22:20 Well today was the last ride to work commute. She is now in the barn. Come Monday I will walk on the ferry then ride in a car 31 miles to where I will work on a new jet. I know some of you prolly think 31 miles isn't much of a commute, and prolly some of you already ride that a day, 62 miles roundtrip. Up here in the Pacnorwest, in the cold, damp, and wet, that can seem like to hell and back, and drivers just don't look out for motorcycles. It's a risk I am not willing to take. I will keep her until I finally pull the switch and turn the lights out on working for good, a little over a year to go. I will try and visit her weekly, until that time.... She earned her keep, I've no complaints, only a raptor gas valve, a versy timing chain adjuster, and one belt that Dave sent me, to clock over 30,000 miles on her in the 5 years I've owned her straight out of her crate at the dealers...... Bittersweet day, indeed, but thankful for the experience, and excited too, that a new one unfolds on Monday :) Cheers! |

This Spring and early Summer here in Syracuse have made me appreciate even more what you Norwesterners' go thru. A tip of the hat. And of course, best of luck on the New Plane. ;) |

Title: Re: In the books..... Post by verslagen1 on 07/10/17 at 08:42:19 More and more every day we see that people just don't give a flying F about their fellow travelers. Just a few days ago someone ran down a cyclist in a group and caught on video. Walk with care my friend. Set that puppy up with a truck bed so you can do your grocery hauling with it. |

I moved to second shift, 3 to 11:30, riding with another islander. I will keep the bike until I clock out, for GOOD! Who knows what might happen next. The company is facing many obstacles and issues, right now. |
