Anyone gotten to ride?

Has anyone had the good weather and time to go for a ride lately??

I haven't even had my car until today, so I'm just itching to do something by bike or even my 5spd G20 when I start feeling a bit better...

Egads! Tomorrow I must ride, for Sunday I.... go back to work from a month off with Mono and strep!

I am so excited I might spontaneously combust!!! I *think* I'm buying my own bike tomorrow, so I'll be out like ALL DAY LONG until I keel over and have to be carried home.

Here's a front shot:

I have never seen a GS with a full fairing. Very nice.

I always liked the GS500s. I dunno why, but I do.

Thanks! I was shocked as heck to see a fairing on it, but it will help me fit in with all the lovely squids better now...

I think it's kinda cool how similar my friend's VX800 looked in comparison to mine (without the fairing, of course). Now that I've got a new rear tire on, I'm hoping to be a wannabe Iron Butt and ride all day tomorrow. I'm sure that with my jacket on I'll roast, but I'm going to try to discover a bunch of new places. Wish me luck!

You mean to tell me the black chain lube that I sprayed all over my rear wheel isn't sexy??? :o

And I only wish I was j/k... Looks like my first day off in a week will be spent washing my bike AND my car...
