Default I really miss my Motorcycle.

She's just sitting in the garage waiting for spring. Sometimes I sing her a song or have a beer with her but it just not the same.


Winter Sucks.

I heard her on that link. She's got a pretty good "voice"!

I'm having the same conversation with the other guys at work that ride. It's getting bad already! Thank God there's a bike show here in January!
