Wow... crystal clear blue skies, warm sun hitting my face, the trees are at thier peak.... I don't know about the rest of you, but come 5:00 the hubby and I are jumping on the bikes and it doesn't matter where we go. It's going to be great!!

Family and Friends are way more important. I'm not waiting untill 5 either. Weather here is a little cold 50 degrees right now (11:45 am) cloudy and overcast, but 2 friends of mine are as crazy as I am. So we are hooking up in about an hour and were outa here for the afternoon. :Venture:I've been wet before and I'll be wet again. Happy Friday and have a great weekend everyone!

Venturous Randy Posted October 10, 2008 Share #12 Posted October 10, 2008 It is supposed to be mid 70's and sunny here in east Tennessee. The trees are really turning. I would love to go up on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but with the fall colors, the cagers scare me to death. They are looking everywhere except where they are going.

1BigDog Posted October 10, 2008 Share #13 Posted October 10, 2008 I knew there was a reason I moved to Florida....... Enjoy your ride tonight..... Hey Vinny, Bear Mountain is a great run. I sure do miss it. Have a blast. Lonna, hope the surgery went well. Pretty soon you'll be smacking Squid in the head with even greater force. By the way, im getting my knee scoped in Jan. Not ready for the knee replacement yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongobobny Posted October 10, 2008 Share #15 Posted October 10, 2008 My week was less than stellar as well, but we made it! Gotta work tomorrow AM but at noon we are leaving for Toronto for the weekend, unfortunately in the cage as the inspection on the bvike expired at the end of September. We are celebrating our 19th Anniversary that happened Tuesday. We will be meeting up with VR members Sunday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexx Posted October 10, 2008 Share #16 Posted October 10, 2008 I took today off specifically to go riding today. Upper 60's/lower 70's. Unfortunately i had time to stop at KC Cycle and Helmet World near Canandaigua and talked myself into spending money I shouldn't have on a new tourmaster jacket. Other than that , a really nice day.

I'm gonna crank that sukka to the max! yeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! c'mon you hardly riders...I'm gonna be lookin fer ACTION! :thumbsup2: UPDATE Sometimes things just don't turn out the way you "planned" them.... I am the Tekkie geek for my company. We share a server room in our office with IBM who has 2 racks of servers and from that, supplies our VOIP phone systems and email app. When things go wrong, I am the guy on call and have to respond. So, 3:23 this morning I get a call....the air conditioning unit failed and the server room temp is too high. OK, on with my clothes and off I go... 4:05 AM I arrive and the temp is at 43 celcius (109.4 F)...normally its around 21 celcius (69.8F). We call in the A/C repairman and the IBM rep... get all the servers shut down... A/C guy arrives..does his thing and we boot everything up again and test....we're about to leave... that was around 9:30 or so... check the room...A/C shut down and temp rising again... call the A/C guy back (he'd left about an hour earlier)... bring in a portable backup unit...shut all the servers down again... 1PM rolls around and we've got it all back up and running...away I go heading for home...ooops...phone rings... IBM forgot to power up a certain server... back I go to let them in (see, I have to give them access to the offices and the server room...it's a security thing)... 2:05PM and we're outta there and I'm on my way home.... exactly 10 hours from the time I first arrived... I'm tired, extremely cranky... and, what was supposed to be a sunny, warm day has now turned into a cloudy, cool day.... GGGRRRRRRRRRRRR so much for my riding plans today. Think I'll bang back a few R&C's and pass out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was cool and cloudy Friday but made up for it that evening and today. No riding today but will make up for it tomorrow. At 08:00pm it was still 80 degrees, not bad for October! You all enjoy yours and be safe........Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
