The dreaded word

Postby lzrdking61 » Sun May 29, 2011 7:58 am

Watching the weather and have not seen the dreaded "R" word. Its looking like this could be the year. 3 days of good weather hmmm maybe a 1000 miles or more. :)

Hmmm...some superstition here? Some "jinxing". C'mon, are we not 21st century men [and women]? Meteorologists pore over their data, charts, crystal balls, and they ask their friends, they ask their neighbors, they ask their moms for their input.
The result: IT AIN'T GONNA FUCKIN' RAIN!

I just checked the weather too, and it's looking very promising. Granted, the forecasts a week out are not reliable, but everyone keep your fingers crossed...!

The weather here looks good through the weekend and it usally come from the west so maybe we're in the clear. But...who cares...we're Tirumph riders and we ride in anything. We are not fair waether riders only(but it would be nice!!!!!). Our bikes are born from fog & rain & some sun...just like us! ha! We're gonna have a ball!!!!

:lmao: Hey Rob...bring some of that "good stuff" out with you...kinda left it behind at college but it sure sounds like you're having a good time...I fondly remember us riding cheerfully home in the rain last year...do you remember the "striptease" one of "our" gang was doing at the Tim Hortons on the thruway? :P
