But I enjoyed every minute of my ride just the same. I've been doing tons of yardwork lately... mowing and leaf detail. After finishing the fourth yard I had to put the tractor back in the garage... the garage with my Camaro and the 3 motorcycles. I debated a while, but I figure I was good these last couple of days and I deserved a ride! I took the 2003 Z1000 for a jaunt. For perhaps the first time ever, I don't think I obeyed a single speed limit... other than when in towns. Most of the roads are rated at 55, but I found it near impossible to hold it under 70. I don't condone this behavior at all, but I know my grin was from ear to ear and I wouldn't have done it had the roads not been clear country ones. It had probably been 3 weeks since my last ride, and I don't know how I'm ever going to make it through the long winter.

BTW, it was cold!

Well I don't want to give the impression of working too hard, but it did take a lot of time. I mowed with a tractor, and I 'raked' with a lawn sweeper (towed behind the tractor). I also got in some drive time trailoring the tractor from house to house.

Man... riding that bike makes me want to get a new one all the more. Sure I appreciate the bike I have (82 Yamaha) but I just want more power, and the style a newer bike has to offer.

Next Spring. I figure there isn't much sense in rushing the order and all this time of year. Plus, I still have an unemployment issue to deal with...
