Won't do any good to complain

This time tomorrow there may be 8-10 inches if snow on the ground. Not that it's really any worse than it is now. For, you see, we've had ice on the ground for the last 3 days. Neither condition is conducive to much riding, like none at all.

Max is safely covered in the garage beneath the Jayhawk flag. Hasn't moved for almost a month now. Besides the snow and ice, it has just been very cold here. Now I don't mind cold weather generally. Temperatures in the 20's are tolerable for awhile. But we've had a lot of days colder than that recently and the forecast for the next week isn't particularly exciting for riding weather. 

So I remain mostly patient. Mostly. But the patience is wearing  a bit thin. Oh well, it can't last forever. At least Max is in the garage. That yellow Harley is outside and hasn't moved an inch. Wonder what it will look like with 10 inches of snow on it.

I'll keep reminding myself that patience is a virtue. 

Ride On and Carpe Diem, my good friends!

Feelin' sorry for a Harley

Near my home resides a Harley. I walk by the home of this bike every other day or so when I'm walking the dog (and the cat).

I feel sorry for this bike. It is a very nice yellow in color. I'm sorry that I don't know more about Harleys to even know the exact model. It's big (to me), but not as big as many Harleys. And its a really nice looking bike! Sort of a basic cruiser, but a very nice looking bike.

But Here's the thing.

The bike has been parked right up next to the garage in this driveway for about 4 months now and hasn't been moved. Not even an inch.

Some thoughts.

Why doesn't the owner move it into the garage?  No clue here.

It has been exposed to the elements including rain, snow and sub-zero temperatures this winter.

If I were that Harley, you can bet I'd be pissed!

Even just a little bit of TLC would be nice. In this case there has been none.

Absolutely None!

So, my response to this is that I'm going to remember to give a little love to Max, my friend on the road. After all, if you don't take care of your bike, how can you expect it to take care of you?

Just Sayin'!

Ride On and Carpe Diem, my good friends.
