time to store stella

[oldgoat]

well about that time of year for me to put the bike away.

 

I must say this has been a great year to ride.

 

I bought the bike from tinker bell. leadwolf56 is her husband. after 1900 miles on the bike I must say I had a good summer and fall. did a poker run for cancer won there 50/50 drawing. kept $200 of my share of that money and gave the rest back to that cancer drive. after I lost my mom, dad and brother to cancer I felt I had to do that.

so today I was looking for a place to store stella when I got an offer to store her in a 6x 10 storage unit for $20 a month. from a person I met on that ride. not a heated garage. but for a fair price I will take it. I would not have found this bike if not for EUSA1 and other here mike helped me make the deal. and for that I am thank full. mike and I had a little issue. but he is a good guy.

and thanks leadwolf56 and tinker bell for a wonder full bike.

Sad time of the year when you put the bike away. Not far behind over here in Iowa, especially when you start thinking of changing oil in the snow blower.

What's a snowblower?

East central Illinois I don't winterize my bikes, there are too many days even in the winter months where the roads are clear and the temps above my minimums to ride.

Day Time with temps in mid 30's

 

I have taken my bike to work and I leave the house at 5:00 AM temp at 17* going up I-81 at or above speed limit. Don't know what the wind chill was but it's an eye opener.:rotf:

Last year we had a freakish warm day on Dec 5th here. I called in and rode all day. The latest I'd ever been riding. Hopefully, this year we see a couple days like that one. I'll put the bike away after I see snow on the ground...

a snow blower is a hooker that gives frosty the snow man a BJ.
