Gear for the rally
I think GA has hit late spring, early summer temps pretty much for good now so plan accordingly. It will be cool at night and hot during the day. The sun is VERY intense down here, for you northern pale people sunscreen in your friend if you are uncovered anywhere. Scattered rain is always a possibility here too even if there are no storm fronts.
Here's the 10 day forcast from today... 10-Day Forecast NEW: Larger Radar Maps & No Ads High / Low (°F) Precip. % Today Apr 25 Mostly Sunny 83°/51° 10 % Sun Apr 26 Mostly Sunny 82°/51° 10 % Mon Apr 27 Mostly Sunny 80°/50° 10 % Tue Apr 28 Mostly Cloudy 78°/54° 10 % Wed Apr 29 Scattered T-Storms 79°/56° 40 % Thu Apr 30 Partly Cloudy 79°/54° 10 % Fri May 01 Partly Cloudy 80°/54° 20 % Sat May 02 Isolated T-Storms 80°/55° 30 % Sun May 03 Sunny 79°/54° 0 % Mon May 04 Partly Cloudy 78°/55° 10 % Last Updated Apr 25 09:26 a.m. ET We're getting close!! |

I can't wait. I want to get away from my life for a week so bad. Everything sucks right now, I can't wait for a whole weekend of motorcycles and beer. No wife pissing me off, no kids constantly freaking out after having sugar, and while I still won't be having sex...at least I'll be riding a motorcycle, and my wife won't be around so it'll make sense, although it doesn't make sense right now...fuck. I've got to get the hell out of here.

I am stressing now as time gets closer. I have a leaking fork seal so th eforks come off tues and go to the shop for oil and replacemtns (dont have time to attack it myself) I also need to try to replace my chain either before or after I do that, then I should be good to go.
Got scared yesterday morning too since I fired up the bike and it spit out a lot of smoke, I thought great what now, but I think it may be from washing it since i blasted it quite a bit with the hose and it seems to have resolved. Tom |

I have my brother coming over thursday to learn how to change my chain, and hes gonna change my oil too. I also managed to put the vista cruise throttle lock on today, a pain in the ass with just one hand.
I'm gonna drop my truck off at the shop to change its oil too incase AI need to drive that down with my bike in the back. I also figured out how to cut my own cast off and still be able to use it as a splint, if the doc doesn't take it off the morning of the 6th. i will ride my bike in GA, just may not ride it to.
