Well, it sure seemed nice when we started, temps in the lower 30's, bright and sunny. Still the wind whipped a bit and brought things to the low 20's with wind chill, or "real feel" as they say in Canada. Yet, Linda was a trooper and bundled up for her first ride of the year, we put on just over 40 miles, highway and through town. Her fingers got cold, but that was it...still I'm not sure how the hell that bundled up babe could even move to ride, but she did...like a champ! Now you know where she got her nickname in our motorcycle community, "Rawhide", cause she's one tough bitch!

It's all about good gear!
And staying off the ice! Which I didn't, and she was behind me and saw my rear tire give way, I thought for sure she was gonna want to turn right around and go home. Instead she just chewed my ass about not being careful enough. :thumbsup:

Keep the faith Wade. You will land something really soon. In the mean time, enjoy the time with Linda! I'm sure you can think of something to do part of the day! :innocent:

Rear end getting loose, that sounds familiar...

Very cool! Thanks for sharing the pics Wade! Keep us up to date with the career search. It's a bad economy right now, so just keep plowing ahead!

Nice wade, Which of the 2 types of riders are you? One that's laid it down? or one who hasn't laid it down yet?

Very nice ride. Yamaha? Cool flame job. I have the opposite problem with my better half, she won't ride with me but does share a cigar with me several nights a week. Luckly she only like the flavored cigars and leaves mine alone.
