The Weather is Gettin' my Hitch Itchy with a bad case of Spring Fever Wanderlust

Seems like it happens every year 'bout now... don't it?

The Weather finally breaks... and whether ya'll got your winter projects done or not... I don't :o) ... Spring Fever, Hitch Itch, Wanderlust... or whatever other name you hang on it hits you, and ya can't keep your mind on anything other than... wearing some rubber off your best tires!

I have stuff that really should get done... and is less likely with each passin' day! My eyes are locked on the Road these days... better to just let 'em see some fresh asphalt for a bit... 'fore they're asked for more work... more likely to get better 'quality' production that-a-way! :o)

What keeps me 'running against the wind'?... the view that I can see forward now... I can see Freedom... just off there a few months maybe... June? July?... instead of the years I was lookin' at...

Life can be kind of like a freight train sometimes... Heavy and hard to get started... moves real slow... you gotta keep strainin' an' gruntin' at it... but if you keep your foot on the throttle... it slowly picks up speed...

Starts to build some momentum...

... then finally, one day... that sucker is rollin' along freely... and hard to stop! :o)

Still in the 'pushin' stage... but we're gettin' a lot closer.

I'll be riding down to Northglenn Wednesday night after work... We've got an appointment with a small shop in Lakewood scheduled Thursday morning... to get a fresh passenger pillion seat built for the Raider... a more proper Touring seat...

and now... I gotta go make the donuts at the current 'day job'...

Take Good Care
Brian
