Suffering here in Northwest Illinois

Post by dirty red »

Dealer called yesterday. My bike is at the shop just waiting to be picked up. Rain today and the next 4 days. (Lots of it!) I don't want her first 120 miles to be in the rain. Tuesday looks good ( I hope !). See you on the road.

Good luck with yours

1st Annual Midwest Ride sounds like something I would like to check into.
