How many are manly men and riding, not caging? :huh:
The problem for some of us is that we are manly men, but are married to delicate princesses that won't ride in freezing weather. :lol: But I might still be able to convince the wifey to ride with me if I give her my heated liner to wear. :rolleyes:

 
I'll be getting a mani/pedi on the 16th, so I'll take the truck down. You know, heater, windshield, comfy seat, music, etc. We're not all blessed with Achiu-like starships, so... the Tacoma it is. :)

 
Awwww I Gotta Cage it!

Freezing Fog here the last (2) days. but, Spokane was Dry and sunny!

Looking forward to the show!

See ya'll there!

Looks like decent riding weather - cloudy, some fog and 47 tomorrow!

Thinking of digging something out of the garage for the trek doontoon in the morning.

Hmmm... what to take, what to take. Seems a shame to take the truck on such a fine PNW winter's day...

Anyone going this afternoon, Friday the 16th? Turns out I'm probably gonna have to work this weekend, so it will be my only opportunity to go. See you there.

 
Darn Tom, I didn't see you. Guess I should have been looking for the guy with the camera. ;) Can't wait to see what new bike Dave comes home with after 3 days of hemming and hawing.

Cassie had fun, but almost fell asleep on the way to the Christmas party. As a bonus though, I met a Snohomish motorcycle deputy at the party!

Have fun guys, sorry I can't be there today.
