Spring fever
Weather was good and the 1200 was calling. Short 50 mile round trip to nowhere. But it was good. First ride of the season.... hopefully not the last.

Re: Spring fever
Thats the plan. Just realized that I have been riding for 70 years. To me it never gets old. The old 1200 has lost a lot of weight over the years but yesterday it seemed to have gained some back. Been having some problems with my left ankle as of late and all that shifting didn't help. the 78 is a bit more challenging to ride but a bit lighter. Just need some more time in the saddle.
