Was working on this bike a couple a years ago, have since sold it.
I stopped and took a pic of it and the view cause it was the only time I have ever ridden on my Bday which was a couple days prior.
The second pic is 2years and a day later, STILL WAITING FOR SPRING!!

Re: WAITING FOR SPRING!!
We've had some weird weather in SC this winter. We had some of the coldest weather on record back in December and January, but February has been very mild with some highs in the upper 70's and lower 80's. I won't be surprised, though, if we get a hard freeze in March again like we did last year. That wreaks havoc with the plants. Lot's of stuff is budding out, then we have a hard freeze and it all turns brown and shrivels up and has to start all over again. Some stuff just doesn't come back.

Re: WAITING FOR SPRING!!
I feel for you guy's. I used to live in that kind of latitude. We are having some really warm winter air. We're taking next week off because our 27th anniversary is Sunday and we always vacation around that week. It looks like some fine Lip rippin, grouper pulling weather. We'll see. And I really do feel for you guy's. It is why we walked away from 2 secure job's and sold our properties to vacate. If I ever see snow again it will be because I'm paying respects to some one close.

Re: WAITING FOR SPRING!!
Pop, they've been testing at Sebring this week, prepping for the 12 hour race. I'm gonna get my ass up there tomorrow and get a sneak peek. Dune Buggy or top down Cyclone, I don't care which but I wanna smell that race fuel. I think you and the boys would really appreciate this old raceway. It's an old WWII training field for aircraft. Much of the original concrete is the race track. It's really cool walking across some of it and seeing the original cleats still in the concrete that they tied the planes down with. Go Ganassi in the Ford GT's!
