That Triumph is hot. It's definatly on the short list of sport bikes I'm considering next time around.

Saturday was a beautiful day to ride; so was today. It certainly made up for Thursday when I got caught in the mid-afternoon deluge on the NW side of town. 10% chance of showers my tookus.

Arizona is absolutely fantastic; I've only been here since August, but I love it. It would be perfect if it rained a bit more often (at least often enough that the weather people could get practice accurately predicting it...)

And I'll take 2 months of miserably hot weather over the 6-8 months of too cold/to snowy to ride that I was used to in WI.

Flynrider: Can you recommend a good spot in town for buying gear?

Ninja: I'd highly recommend this bike to anyone. It is by far the most perfect bike I've ever been on: sooo responsive, not at all tempermental, zippy... aaaahhhh. Love.

Thanks again, everyone, for your help!

So, you're single now eh?

Oh my. I suppose that could sound a little naughty...

wait, I mean...

It's what they invented mirrors for, so single women could take their own pictures...

Actually, all digital cameras have a 10 second delayed picture function. You set it, put down the camera, run to the bike, slip and the camera takes the picture.

Great way to get a shot of you sitting on your "O Ring" next to the bike... not that I've ever done that.

Not asking you to post photos though. It is a sweet ride though, I hope to make one of those my next bike... I'll be spending all year working on them !

I haven't been gear shopping in quite awhile, but I usually head over to Town & Country Motorsports in Chandler. They're a large dealership and have one of the better selections of bike gear in town.

Thanks for the recommendation, flynrider! I'll have to work my way over to that side of town one of these days and check them out!
