The time of year when you need to look after your family.
Bring them in from the cold :grin:

No go for for me to get my baby into my house easily due to entry steps spoiling the fun. However, a mate who asked me in September if my rebuild/frame respray at the time would be complete and ready to put on display for a Jap Moto GP gathering he organised at his house saw her spending some time in the comfort of his entry/dining room. Winter was definitely not the excuse used being October in Aus 😊

I almost convinced my wife to put my XT500 supermoto in the house, but the plan stalled as shes now stuck an Xmas tree where I wanted it to go. I have an RZ LC2 frame thats been powdercoated in the spare room... yeah i know, thats a bit pathetic lol! :grin:

This is where you flip it, tell her you hope she knows how lucky she is having someone as considerate as yourself for allowing the Christmas Tree priority over one of your beloveds.. 😊

Don't you guys watch the news? They say over and over that we have a global warming, so get your lazy asses on your bikes and ride 'em!

I had my last ride yesterday at sunny 9 deg C and half way dry roads.
Especially looking forward to Dec 28'th as we'll participate in a 3h indoor Pitbike endurance race :-)
Bye

There may be global warming but the roads in Scotland are covered in salt and I think I will keep the classic's away from salt.
