Happy Holidays!

I've been wondering if my cat would like to go riding in my tank bag...

She likes my bike, and I know she misses me when I am gone.  :'(

Back in the '80s at one of the National Rallies I saw a guy with a Black airhead, a black Harro tankbag with his black cat nestled inside.  The cat was quite content!  I don't think ours would stay put long once we started the engine!  Maybe if you trained them up from a kitten... 8-)

Our cat wouldn't even stay put long enough for a photo (and we tried!).  I had to edit "him" in!

Great card, Aida, and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I got a great card in the mail today from Carolina BMW, with an F800S pictured under the Christmas tree.
I'm not generally too materialistic by nature, but this was yet another log on the fiery lust in my heart for that big vertical twin... ;)

Aïda, what a wonderful Christmas card.  I love that picture of you 2 all dressed up in your Christmas finery.   ;D

And a happy Solstice to you all too.  Spring is just around the corner now!   ;D

Ed, you'll get to a rally this year!  Put it on your calendar!   ;)

May you all have a very merry Christmas.  And I like nhmaf's New Years wishes.  May it be so.

I'm heading out soon to do battle one last time with the local merchants and 100,00 other procrastinators like myself, then I'm in until about Tuesday. I'm taking off work until Jan. 2nd, so hopefully the weather will allow me to get a little riding in during the holidays, to help soothe the  nerves shattered by "post traumatic shopping syndrome". ;)

Merry Christmas, everyone!!

On this Christmas Eve, I'm downstate in the "midlands" of SC (mainly Columbia), celebrating the holidays with my kids, along with wife's son, her daughter, and her granddaughter (who, sadly, is in the hospital with pneumonia... And the hospital ain't no place at all for anyone to be on Christmas, let alone an 8 year-old).

I'd just like to pass along my holiday wishes to all my R45/65/LS riding buddies, and as they say in Germany, "Froeliche Weinachten!"  (Loosly translated as "Merry Christmas")  [smiley=tekst-toppie.gif]
