Short Rides

Sunday was cold but clear, temps did not get above 41 degrees and that wasn't until about 16:00.  But not being one to waste a clear day with good road conditions I layered up and took the Bullet out.  No plan for a long ride but I wanted to begin seriously testing the glove liners I bought last December.

Winter is Dying!

It was a balmy 62 degrees today and all that snow was melting like there was no tomorrow.  I got home a little after 17:30, rolled the MG out of the garage and turned her over.  After a couple of false starts she caught on and began to purr.  So taking advantage of the good weather my wife and I went for our first ride of the year.  Not much of a ride and not very long, we just...

More on Musket V-Twin

From the Columbus Dispatch, an article and video on Aniket Vardhan and his Musket V-Twin. Nothing really new but a good article none the less.  I hope he can make a living making these things because I for one would love to own a Musket. http://bit.ly/1AZoBDU http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/life_and_entertainment/2015/03/10/1-vroom-with-a-view.h...
