It's the first sunny warm day it what seems like a year and I'm stuck at work. I wanna ride..............

 
Same here except I'm buggin out early, headed west 210 miles later this afternoon, then cruising another thousand or so through Nevada between now and Sunday. Bike is packed, loaded and only lacking rider, which will be fixed in a couple hours.

I'm about to find out if my valve shim reassembly was done right!

I've ridden about 3K miles already this year, but it's been 12 days since my last jaunt. That pitiful streak ends tomorrow. I'm going somewhere - don't give a crap where, but I've got to roll the FJR.

 
Now, Monday morning, I can REALLY wonder why I'm at work.... Wish I could have stayed out on the road a little longer... Some photos of the first shakedown run of the year:

Mountain Home Idaho Truckstop Sunset (taken with a crappy phone camera--the colors were spectacular):

My bike has yet to turn a tire this year. The few nice days we've had found the roads covered in ****, and, I wanted to get the lights mounted up.

Today? About 36F and it's been pissing rain since last night. WOOHOO! Wash that **** off the roads.
