Awww, see that ain't even right. It's 40 here, and they talking about possible snow here tonight/tomorrow. :'(
Vanamal do us (those that can't because of snow/cold) a favor, go out and put some wind in your face and think about those that can't.

LOL - Oh Shut Up
Today's High here in Clear Lake, IA a whopping 23 degrees
Damn Jeff.......you must be freezin your little patutty off being used to Calif. weather! [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]
I hope you're getting settled in back there. How's the new home? And I suppose you haven't been back on the bike yet?

Well guys, 82 degrees is a beautiful thing when the reast of the country is freezing (except my neighbors in AZ). Santa Ana conditions (that means wind in from the desert for all you arctic dwellers out there) and beautiful clear skies. BUT remember......we pay for this weather......at $700K for a median priced house and $2.75/gal gas and 8% state income tax etc..etc..etc... It better be FREAKIN warm this time of year.......
Sorry to hear about Elvis bro, But it's liKe the 6 million dollar man......."we can rebuild it and make better, stronger....faster..........) [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Yeah, it's nice riding weather right now but, I've been so busy with work I haven't riden in three weeks!!

It's in the 80s today in So Cal and I want cruise by the beach that's only 10 minutes away..........I think I'm ditchin' work this afternoon. Thanks guys for reminding me of my priorities!

Hey Dr., what's your Dept's. policy on riding on duty? Is it ice, a certain temp. or just a calendar date? You need to trailer down to Daytona [smiley=divers009.gif]1st of next month and ride w/ BLM, Hub, Spyder, and the 'gang'. Har! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] spyder

Never thought, on "Any Given Sunday" or for that matter any day of the week, a team/town can be beat...

I hate to say it but it's another day in the 70's out here ;D Supposed to be like this into next week. Put about 500 miles on the bike this week and it's not even the weekend yet!

I'm thinking it's about time to deport all these wise-guy Californians to northern Canada. Can I get an amen???

Don't send 'em here. They'd have to learn to build igloos first!

I sure am going to miss all the fine weather in San diego while I'm deep sea fishing off the coast of Costa Rica next week. I guess you have to take the good with the bad.

Well Daddy,
Sorry to hear bout the weather. Don't mean to rub it in, but it's freakin hot out there today (like mid to upper 80's). I'm bailing from work to put some miles on today...B thinkin of you guys though.......I'll even have a beer for all you "artic dwellers" out there.

Midwest weather has been record setting mild this year. I've ridden more this winter than any year I can remember. I'm sure not complaining. Two weeks ago I left KC where it was 65 degrees and flew to LA. It was only 61 there so there is justice in this world. [smiley=banana.gif]
-
Well that's nice! We who are freezing hope that you who aren't don't have that BIG earthquake which may at some point make [highlight]Cali Island[/highlight] ;D

If that did happen, property values go up!!! (well, what ever property is left).

After the big one separates us, it'll still be 70 degrees+ all winter 8-)

[highlight]Sorry to impose, my frigid friend, but it would only be for a few weeks. I'll bet they couldn't last more than that. [/highlight]
given my propensity for pissin people off, how do I say this in polite terms hmmmmmmmm :D
most of us wiseass Californians are smart former snowbirds ;)
spent 44 years in Maine dude rode my bike most all winter sometimes with little kids plastic snow skis strapped to Sorel's and feet down the whole way

Sorry about the lack of scenery . Mrs Beagle was in control of the camera. We did mention to her about the girls in bikini's but it seemed to fall on deaf ears
To all those me and Beags have been buying parts from . The Blue RK is where a lot of em are going to wind up.
Q I don't care that Beags posted a pic of me in my Screamin Eagle windbreaker, but Big B ain't that big. ;D I look like the Michelin Man [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

We are actually supposed to get cold weather and rain on Saturday, but since it IS So-Cal, it should only last a day.
I plan on taking the new Ultra on a nice trip to Laughlin and back Sunday Monday since its a holiday weekend!
I just got 3/4 helmets (I usually ride with 1/2 lids) and installed the mic and speakers. The GF is all happy that we can chit chat while going 85 and asked what I would do if she was talking my ears off. I told her I know where the 'off' button to the intercom is!

Hey Wckd One, get one of those comical stickers to affix to the rear of your new 3/4 helmet that reads: GET ON, HANG ON, & SHUT UP ! :-X Har! spyder

Hey Fire......
Glad you had a good day over there.....'bout time!!!!!
You have to take lifes little victories when you can!!!!!
Was upper 70's here today, Spiderman took me out to Palm Springs to get my fancy smancy new bike lift (Birthday to me.....Birthday to me....), Mrs. Beagle, my brother-in-law and mom all chipped in to get me this thing (tryin to save my back a little........another story).....and Spidey took me all the way out there to get it.......(I guess I really am loved by those around me).
That's my point......you gotta look around you every now and then and really appreciate everything you have (and I'm not just talking about toys and parts).........
Lifes a journey.....Not a destination!!!!!!
Glad you got in the wind today.......I hope tomorrow's even better.
All the best!!

Well, I gotta say, I'm pretty geeked up about this lift. I work on a lot of bikes around here, and most of them are not mine, I've got one of those pump lifts, but I bought mine in Laughlin 10 years ago.......this thing is a tank, like 80 lbs (it's sitting behind my toolbox, and everytime I have to take it out, it's a real chore, and even then, your on your hands and knee's anyway....what's the point). Since I bought it, I've destroted a couple of disks in my lower back (probably from lifting engine blocks around the garage......anyway....pains gettin real bad these days, and I'm gettin old....at least feelin that way.....save you backs guys...once they're messed up......you don't go back. No punn intended). I have to credit the lift idea to Spiderman, and execution results to my bro-in-law (he's the one who offered up half). Mrs. Beagle know's how much I like tinkering so she and moms, put up the rest.....anyway.......proud as a Cheshire cat!!!

Only problem is that there is only room for two bikes now (well three if one is on the lift).

OK brother Beags, now here's the plan , Mrs Beags, a couple of drinks, candles in the garage, the new bench, a comfy comforter, the promise of a - ah ah - - - - - - demonstration - - - -the bench - - - - it moves - - - - -ok I think you probably got past fun with power tools 101 ;D

DO LIKE VANAMAL and cut the slab and sink it flush - its pretty easy- ive got pics if you havnt already seen them [smiley=banana.gif]

Too late, they ain't gonna take it back now (Already been used.....if ya know wjhat I mean.....Mrs. Beagle likes it too)....besides, cuttin a slab here in So.Cal is dangerous business..........back home (Ct way), didn't much matter, out here, you drill the slab.....one shaker comes, house gone (or maybe you wish it was....cost more to fix right than replace). I'm on a birthday week.......Mrs. B is callin again.....

Eat your freakin hearts out (and I don't feel soory for any ONE of you........), It took me 20 freakin years to find this one (first one by the way..........went through a lot of em too).......Mrs. Beagle is a keeper.......
BTW, lift is fine, broke the freakin tool box tonight (tryin to get her off the lift....hit her head on the door opener, bottle of Moet' (don't worry Spidey, still savin the bottle of Dom you gave me for the silver)......gotta put a brass pole in the garage over the lift (Mrs. Beagle's request.....) If anyone has done this before, PLEASE SEND PICS...... I think I can do it on my own.......pictures are better. Where in the hell do you get a brass pole anyway??????

Here's some interesting reading for you.
Keep Big B away from this stuff...he'd only go for a genuine MOCO Brass Pole. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]
Also, who is the maker of your new table lift? I got one by Handy that looks identical but the decal on the side of your's threw me off.......

Fatboy,
I got it from Western Manufacturing (Palm Springs)....looks to be pretty close to the Handy SAM lift. Spiderman has the BOB lift (definately a little stouter.....but this ones fine for what I need to do). This guy used to work for Handy (they all probably come from the same place anyway).

Beagle,
Two buddies of mine own a Biker Bar here in Columbus called The Kickstand Pub, anyway when they redesigned the place recently and built a new larger stage in the middle of the joint for the Bands they hire each week.
While trying to decide whether or not to tear out the old (smaller) stage in the corner they decided to keep it for Wet T-Shirt contest's. A very good idea in

Fatboy,
I already though about that.....rode with a club here in Dago for years, and know what a brass pole does for even the "nicest" girls......just struck me as funny to see my Mrs._Beagle up there, where her sister used to be (she <sister> was a "dancer", and crazy as a sh$t house rat.....{dated her for a while too.....((I'm talkin nuckin futz))I used to get around a little too......in my younger days}. But the pole thing, in my opinion is a good thing. She requested it....if the local females want to use it....OK, I'll rent it out by the hour.....retirement money........Whadda think????

Back to the original topic...
Hate to brag but... its late February and I got in over 400 miles of riding in awsome weather this weekend! Saturday headed down to San Diego, spent the first half of Sunday hitting the indian casinos and eating. Then had a ride in perfect upper 70s weather for the ride home. Got all the riding done in time because tomorrow... rain! :o
