So, actually got some quality riding(and drinking) in while at home.

If you want a good conversation ending topic, keep talking about kiting with everyone at the bar. Wink

5 out of 7 days while we were home there was a thunderstorm/tornado warning... Shocked
I guess I forgot how many humid-balmy storms we got this time of year...

Got a solid day at Waukegan in Chicago and a killer session on Lake Geneva... other days were up and down, drunk, and tornado-y!!! Got a nice downwinder on LG also.

good fun.

Nice try Tony, I don't let people who expose themselves in public and try and get away with it just cause they are a cop! You should be in the slammer where you belong!
