Sure, you finally post up about a ride and I'll be out of town, snow skiing.   :(

I found that picture from Google images, this thread is just a joke about the terrible weather forecasted for this weekend. I may go for a short dirt ride near the house if it's not pouring when I wake up tomorrow morning. I'm going to a wedding in Incline on Sunday; I hope the ceremony is inside...

I've been doing this pretty frequently, and will probably try to do the same tomorrow as well. I've been able to work my way up behind the Walmart on pyramid and into the hills behind sun valley/Spanish springs.  It nice not having to trailer anywhere.

You think the timbersled kit will bolt up to the S1000?

So far still sunny skies down here in Gville. Did a quick 35 miles in the Pine Nuts with a friend from Dayton this morning. Then I dropped my truck off at Les Schwab and took the fun way home for another 15 miles of dirt/singletrack. Waiting for the call then I'll cruise back up the road, load the bike in the back, and come back home. It's nice to have a plate on your dirt bike.

About the only way to tell there is a storm is to look at the radar.  Mtns seem to be getting decent precip but we're completely shadowed out.  Only had a couple drops of rain and temp of 40 deg this morning is warmer than I was expecting. 

Being street legal definitely has its benefits! My project this week was adding wrap around bar guards and better radiator protection.  Preping the bike for the Rubicon trail next year.

I've ridden parts of the Rubicon, I think it's fun.

You still riding your 300 Dub?

Rich and I have been discussing the Rubicon trail for next year, you should join. I wish I still had my 300 for it but unless something changes I'll have to do it on the 450.
