Happy New Year everyone.
At -17 F today and little chance of change, I'm worried that I only winterized the NC, and didn't 'polarize' it.
Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!
Fitness center parking lot, 8 a.m.
Three degrees Fahrenheit. (-16)
I did not ride there, but I did bring my little jump start battery in for a charge. I have designated the first of each month as “recharge batteries day.”

Arrived in SoCal after a nice day ride down from Oregon. Temps started in low to mid 30’s and then 40’s for the first few hours, but finally creeped into the 50’s and even low 60’s for most of the day. 14 hours (6am-8pm) and 920 miles later I reached my destination.
Tuesday I pick up my newly acquired Kendon folding trailer.
HNY everyone!

18 centuries of the choice, 'believe this way or die', & always chosen life, is a lineage difficult to separate from. I understand. But do not fear my belief science created the universe, I'll never say "Big Bang's Will" made me do you harm. We are a genuinely free & peaceful lot.
Today.........ordered a DanMoto Exhaust System. May have to buy the optional "baffle" later if it "barks" too much.![]()
Sticking with tradition I got out for a ride today and put 20 miles on the NC in 36-43 degree F rain, 125 miles on the ST1300.

Nice trailer Ray.
I ordered bags for my NC and some chain adjustment tools. Still a little cool for me in Texas to ride but maybe by the weekend.
Happy New Year to everyone.
Today I drove down the NJ Turnpike a couple miles to IKEA Elizabeth. Temperature in the teens, and some crazy wind out there, especially passing by Newark Airport.
FYI, IKEA has these new (to me) zippable 20 gallon duffel bags for $4.99. Easy to slip on as a backpack. I filled it with the towels and blanket and pillow stuff and rode it back. No troubles

Thanks, I found it on eBay and got lucky. Which was fortunate for me because I had just won an auction for a Class B motorhome the day before, also on eBay. (Bad combination = boredom on a beach, WiFi, and an iPad surfing eBay auctions 8,000 miles away.) I decided I needed a base camp to ride from on my NC’ & Moto-Mule ‘RV’ when exploring different regions.
Later this week I head to Tampa to pick this up.
With this combination of the camper van and trailer carrying my ‘NC (and Moto-Mule), I can travel year round anywhere on North America. The ‘NC for local back roads, the camper for the interstate highways.
