My Bike

Thought I'd post some pics of my bike.

New Tire for my Harley


So several months ago a Harley dealer which newly established itself sent out an offer. If you come by and take a tour they will give you a coupon to get a free brand new stock tire and installation for free. Sounded excellent to me as long as they change out my back 240 tire which is stock for my bike.

So I took the tour and got the coupon. Now it had to be used prior to March 1st 2011. So I waited until the last possible moment to get the most our of my current tire. Last possible day was this past Saturday February 26th since the dealer is closed on Sunday and Monday.

We've had pretty cold and snowy weather the past week and Saturday was no different. It was below freezing and after bundling up in my layers and heated gear I looked like the Michilan Man.

Seattle wasn't too bad for snow or ice but once I hit Lynnwood it got bad. Many of the roads I had to traverse were covered in snow and ice. I made it but decided to leave my bike there at the dealer until the weather warmed just a bit. The last thing you want to do is ride on a new tire in bad conditions. Tires tend to have a coating that can make them slippery already.

So my baby is sitting at the dealer. I miss him already.

2011 January Winter Ride

Well it's still winter in Seattle. It's snowed, rained and flooded. But today its sunny and 45 degrees. So we went riding on the Peninsula. Oh so nice to ride for a day.








Coming home on the ferry.
