No riding today
« on: November 24, 2005, 05:50:47 AM »
Just as well I've got no clutch cable at the moment - don't think I'd be riding the bike today anyway! The picture is the view from my work today at lunch time.

Lovely!  I dont work today, thanksgiving!  Not riding though, its like 20 degrees out not including wind chill.  Plus I need a car to stash all the leftovers I plan on snatching!

When is Thanksgiving for you guys (U.S.A.) anyway? Is it this weekend coming?  ??? Happy Thanksgiving.  I won't be riding either, we got an "Alberta Clipper" whipping through here. Got lots of snow last night and we might get up to 20cm when all is said and done. My riding season is done now 'til April.  :'(

Thanksgiving is today in the USA. Here in vermont, we are getting 2-4inches of snow.
The key is stuck in my 75 cb750, a sign??? Is someone trying to tell me to not
put it away for the winter?
Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Not always.  In years that November has five Thursdays, it's on the fourth one. 

Mmmm... Turkey, pie, and football.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone! ;D

Even if I hadn't put the bike away for the winter, no riding today. Like Vermont, about 4" of snow, high winds and windchill about zero, very gusty. For those celebrating today, Happy Turkey Day.
We'll all be someone else's PO some day.

Cheers Gordon

Have a great thanksgiving y'all.
I take it you refer to the oval football game rather than the round football game we play?

Hey Bob, I'm sure none of the Turkey's are very happy. ;D

Forty seven degrees and sunny here.  Let's see.....I can go for a ride or spend the day with my grandchildren.

Hmmmm....think I'll stay home.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.

Mmmmmm.....homemade apple, pumpkin and pecan pie.  Who needs turkey?
I'd rather ride a Yamaha than eat worms.
