Getiing kind of antsy!We went out to move the Blue Bomb today.Started her up no problem,but the little red light wouldn't turn off,so I think I have a charging issue .I was looking forward to blowing the cobwebs off the 67 but I'll have to wait another day...CAN\"T WAIT !!!! :rockon:

My 67 has collectors plates all year round and it just sits. The 65 has had insurance for about 3-4 weeks now and its only been rainy almost everyday so I've only had her out maybe 7 days or so.

This weather really sucks

Oh My GOD! It was nice to see the sun yesterday!

Washed the horrible grime off my car, opened the sunroof for the first time since Autumn (thanks to G-dog for fixing the damn thing ^_^ ) and went for a little spin to \"airdry\"

My car puts up with winter driving, just because it is the only way to get to the other side of the darkness.
Drive fast, towards the light!!! :lol:

Sunrise this morning looks like maybe there is hope.........
aaahhhhhhhhhhhh.......

finally

Fired up the Ducati today, let her warm up for a couple minutes, moved the cars out of the driveway and ran out of gas =).

Beautiful weather though.

Perfect day for a cruise! Went back to Rancho Constant today to pick up the 67 .Turbo Jimmy hooked me up with a battery charger ,we gave her a little chargeroo and after lunch I fired it up & the Alt light went out like it's sposed to!!No problems with the Alt ,Just a low state of charge on the battery.Yeehaa! First Cruise of the year,grinnin from ear to ear..(sounds like song lyrics)Ran like a top.BTW, I really want to thank Shane and Amanda for letting my car hibernate at the Ranch all winter.I totally appreciate their generosity,we all know they're good peeps. :)

All this talk about spring got me to wondering if the Java Hut will be a go this year. I know they changed the name, or if there will be another place to go and hang out. Its looking more like convertible weather out there to me.  B)

Just drove by it today and there was a huge \"closed\" banner hanging across the roof. Guess it's closed.
