I had a big box show up to my door this morning. After much frustration I finally have a seat for my Magna. Its a saddleman double bucket foam on a stock pan with custom textile cover. Unlike the messed up Saddleman seat I tried about a week ago this fits like a glove.
1984 Honda Magna 700, 1987 CBR1000F, 1991 Nighthawk 750, 1994 FZR600, and for the dirt 1995 KTM 300 EXC and finally a 1986 KX500

Congrats Loonette!!! :thumbsup:

Today was a gorgeous day in southern England. :mrgreen: However, because the air conditioning wasn't working properly in our building I sat at work in about +30°C temperatures. I was nearly sick! :shock:

Got home last night after a weekend away... first bike trip w/my hubby. Son stayed home with our pets so it was just the two of us on our bikes. Left Saturday morning, about a 3 hour ride to our destination on the Columbia River. Came home yesterday afternoon with a short stop at Grand Coulee Dam. Might do it again next weekend!
Nice part of WA to be riding in, if you went north to the border, you could have said hi to me in Osoyoos BC...

The Grande Coulee has a great laser light show that explains a whole lot about the columbia basin and life in the area...

Went for breakfast with new friends before they rode home from Osoyoos. Just before I turned into the street to head back to the camp site, I decided to take a run up to the Anarchist Mountain viewpoint.

Optimizing the speed of the site and forums... have you noticed any difference?

About a half an hour after I took this picture, there was a fatal accident at this view point. Two people died when they struck the no post that protects the pull out. Looks like a caged going to quick in the corner couldn't hold his line and nailed the no post. Thank goodness there was no bike involved. Bikers and cyclists are always stopped in that viewpoint...

Great photo Doug, maybe the driver got distracted by the amazing view. Glad you got away before accident. RIP

I went for a ride with my fella this evening. First time (cos of work shifts) that we have been out together since weekend away, 2 wks ago.

Rode to pub that old time biker mates frequent. Met up with quite a few folk that we hadn't seen for ages. :lol:

Rounded it off with a steak dinner, then tootled home. :D

Yes, it loads quicker except for the respond page, kinda freezes up until all of the font "colours" are loaded. (Might want to fix that misspelling :twisted: )

There is no "American English" just "English" and then there are errors...
