Up in the Ski Areas... They call this the MUD SEASON...

'Round here... we're mostly just starting to rip off a string of...  $%@#!!! &%@$#%!!! $@#%$!!! ... Blue Smoke! 
 
... if we talk about it at all...

Mud... Mud... and ... yup... more, slippery, slimy... sink to your ankle when you drop off that last step, heading for the bike... MUD! aaaarrrrrrgggghhhhh!

How am I gonna run from a Twister... on that Hot Rod Red Motorcycle... when she's Stuck in the Mud!? I tell ya folks... that is one Hell of an asphalt burning Motorcycle... but what she Ain't is a dirt bike. :o) Got home last night... sloggin' through the ... Stuff, went to make the lil' turn where I park her... and all she'd do is keep on going the way she already was...

Gonna take both of us to push that big beautiful Red Head back enough to clear a way to ride her back out... when the ground firms up enough to roll on it!

... and then Heidi wants to know; "What 'bout me? What do I do if You bail out runnin' from a twister?"

Huh? ... whatcha mean? ... YOUR bike is settin' right there! :o)

Guess I'll run the Cummins today... and hope the weatherman is right... and that the sun is comin' out in the morning... so we can ride out for our 31st anniversary scoot!

Ever'body close your eyes for 17 seconds an' repeat after me... No more rain... No more rain... No more Rain... for just a lil' Bit! :o)

Oh yeah... 'most forgot... the work I had done on that Ol' truck seems to have done some real good... The valves were 'way out'... and the lousy lift pump they used on those years was replaced with a FASS lift pump... Same as what all the Hot Rod Performance diesel boys use... Here's hopin' that's the end of 'it'... for a while.

You could tell right off, as soon as I fired it up, that it was stronger and smoother. The fuel consumption is much improved... The real test will be over Memorial Day when we make our first haul with the new parts.

 Till then... I'll just wade through the $%#&@! Mud!

Take Good Care
Brian
