I also had a good ride, but no such luck with the HD's I met. I waved, they didn't, then I thought to myself: "I can go where you can't...na-na - na-na!" :-p` Thiibbbiiitt!! "Swede"

Finally got my new 01' KLR on Thursday. Was pretty jittery after not having rode for about 4 years and the last bike was a lot smaller (but heavier). Jeez, I feel like I shrank about 2 inches in my legs. . I remember the KLR being tall in the saddle but not quite so much. Thursday I just took back home about 6 miles, Friday it snowed here in NY again. Took it out Saturday after spening 2 hours shoveling the driveway. Did only miles. Sunday was nice went for a 50 mile spin up some of the local roads along the Hudson but the temperatures finally got to me so I stoped at a local coffee shop, hands shaking with the cold but a huge smile on my face all the same. Took one of the highways back down. Just sort of sat back on the thing and enjoyed a nice cruise around 60-65 with most cars whizzing past me but I gotta watch that RPM for the next few weeks. Was a little windy which I attibute to both being still being used to my old Ninja and the particular jacket I was wearing and also just f@#$ing cold... Can't wait til spring.
