I have had to spend a couple of days looking longingly at him while we had bad weather early this week and I didn't ride. But I rode today and it is great having him home.<br />Thanks<br />Jimcpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-20950185701354334702009-10-15T01:33:26.905-05:002009-10-15T01:33:26.905-05:00cpa3485:

I was always worried about breakdowns on the weekends and wondered whether I would be able to make it home, or not. As charlie6 says, you feel good when it is home where it belongs.<br /><br />Jack "r": those pink streamers are for cancer awareness for fallen riders. Pink is the colour of their promotion. If I lived closer to Wichita I would sneak into Jim's garage and grab those bar end lights for my bike.<br /><br />Jimbo: I hope you find a pair of pink Crocs. They will make you invincible and gain you membership into our elitist internet rider's blogging group, EIRBG for short.<br /><br />Oh almost forgot, ever since you mentioned it, and as you have your camera out and poised for action, please snap a pic of my admirers from your office staff, wearing pink crocs if possible.<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">bobskoot: wet coast scootin</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-23657231726967448742009-10-14T20:32:41.571-05:002009-10-14T20:32:41.571-05:00It's always better when one's ride is in o...It's always better when one's ride is in one's garage, isn't it?redlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-35837883559382730022009-10-14T19:32:33.488-05:002009-10-14T19:32:33.488-05:00Jack, (Mr Toad)

Slower roads and better places to stop and take pictures. After all, readers demand it!<br />The bar-end lights are just silly and fun. And I used to put playing cards with clothespins into the spokes of my bicycle as a kid. <br />There are about 6-7 different blog post ideas for when I get back with the pictures. I ought to be able to load blogger up for a couple of months all at once, like Conch does.<br />Take Care, I'll try to get a shot of a gentlemen's club as well. I think I know where one is.

I hope you have three days of perfect weather. I hope you give yourself lots of time, and stop anywhere an interesting photo presents itself.<br /><br />Your repaired bike looks good in the photos, and I think the flashing bar-end lights are very scooterish and chic. (They are way better than the pink streamers Bobskoot has on both of his bikes.)<br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jack • reep • Toad<br />Twisted RoadsJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-17374944680083377382009-10-14T16:49:13.331-05:002009-10-14T16:49:13.331-05:00Conch,

First of all, the only time it may happen is if I need to take a leak and have to find a tree or bush to help out in being discrete. And I am sure I can't handle my equipment and take a picture at the same time.<br />Secondly , I think it odd that Bobskoot would bring that up in light of his recent meeting up with another fellow blogger. Weren't a couple of those pictures rather chummy? If you catch my drift. (I hope he knows I am just kidding)<br />Anyway I promise to regale the readers with lots of pictures. <br />And by the way, if time permits, I am hoping to see if I can find a season end closeout sale on some pink crocs. A veritable club seems to be starting re those crocs.<br />Thanks for the visit,<br />Jimcpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-19681666431794947802009-10-14T16:41:28.832-05:002009-10-14T16:41:28.832-05:00Harv,

We have had unseasonably cool weather here with misty rain. Just plain blah for 5 days or so. Haven't ridden to work yet this week and about to scream from withdrawel.<br />But the forecast this weekend is for sunny skies, although it still may be a bit cool. Ought to be prime weather for picture taking.<br />The lights on the handlebar end do not function with the turn signals, but they have 3 settings. One is on all the time. The second is just flashing. The third is sort of like chase lights going around in a circle. They should be fun this weekend as there will probably be at least some night riding involved.<br />And thanks for your past encouragement regarding the ride. I appreciate it.<br />Take Care,<br />Jimcpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-20484985824594842002009-10-14T16:30:50.218-05:002009-10-14T16:30:50.218-05:00Bobskoot,

At my age, and I think we are relatively close in age, a bump is a bump and I certainly didn't heal like I used to from bumps like that. To this day I still cannot sleep comfortably lying on my left side. Knowing you though, I bet you are back riding in no time.<br />The weight loss has not been from a conscious or even a concerted effort. Rather, I have just decided not to eat as much. My wife and I now have a tendency to split big hamburgers, etc rather than eat one all by myself. The weight loss has been real gradual.<br />Thanks for poppin' in<br />Jimcpa3485https://www.blogger.com/profile/00031439889267356735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-156748592051952292009-10-14T13:01:13.359-05:002009-10-14T13:01:13.359-05:00exposing yourself might not be good. especially ta...exposing yourself might not be good. especially taking lots of pictures.Conchscooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08016331487463993200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2259595163018451877.post-16451310057220705552009-10-14T11:04:47.470-05:002009-10-14T11:04:47.470-05:00I am really looking forward to reading about your ...I am really looking forward to reading about your trip.

My arm was hurting a bit for a day or two so I didn't ride but rather repaired my crash bar. I am glad I got the "bars" as they did their job. If they get damaged again then I could just purchase another set. Just got a few minor scratching on the plastic parts and you would have to look very closely to notice. Black is the worst colour for imperfections.<br />---------------------------<br />You trip will be an adventure, you and your bike. As you are an urban rider I think that once on the open road you may enjoy the freedom of exposing yourself to the elements. Take lots of photos. Congrats on your weight loss program. I wish I could lose a few lbs. We have to remember as we age, with less activity, to limit our food intake, but I can proudly say I don't know when to stop when it comes to good food.<br />---------------------------------<br /> . . . and shorter hair is better than NO hair. Do those end bar lights also "flash" ? I saw a set recently that functioned as turn signals.<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">bobskoot: wet coast scootin</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.com
