Today it's raining and 40 degrees F. So I went outside started my p/u truck, generator, and motorcycle to produce more carbon emissions. I'm letting them idle for the next week. With any luck I'll have raised the earths tempature by 20 degrees. I also turned the heater full blast on the p/u and opened the windows, that should help to.

I ate a bunch of greasy food. Probably will have some emissions soon. :oops:

Careful, don't warm up the planet too much. Next thing you know, we'll have to keep our fridges and freezers open to cool things off.

being from the coalfields i support the open fridge it runs on electricity thats still mostly made from coal, but then more gas burned means prices go up fuel and coal more people have jobs and money in my area and want to save gas so they get scooters :lol: everybody wins and i can grow oranges :lol: :lol:

No worries, I'll start the cooling program in the second week of June.

It was actually mostly sunny and warm feeling thursday with temps in the mid to upper 60's around here. :lol:

Today it is RAIN and next week it looks like we go back into the 40's for highs with maybe some snow mixed in :roll: .

Rain and snow here in SE Alaska. The good news is we are getting to the point where more snow is melting each day.

Today it will be 60 (starting off at 34) and sunny and we are doing concrete at work (perfect day for concrete) friday is looking close to 80, so is saturday and sunday.

So we'll be getting a taste of summer this weekend then back down to the upper 60's next week.

I put in for 4 hours off friday (leave at 11:00) and had plans but they arn't going to work out but I'm still thinking of taking the time and just going for a nice warm ride.

Rode the lifan for the first time this year. Great to have it out again.

The lower gas prices let me guzzle in comfort all winter.

The weather here in Idaho has been gorgeous. Yesterday I passed the 10,000 mile mark on my Zong 200GY-2. :) I just know that my riding the last few days has raised the global temperature by several degrees Fahrenheit! :roll:

It was 12*C and sunny here in Southern Ontario. I went out for a nice ride on the Lifan today. Had to test out the new carb. I cannot believe how much torque I have now. It's been pretty mucky where I ride and I was actually able to avoid most of the wet mucky stuff. Still had to powerwash it off when I got home (I cranked up the 2200 psi gas washer so maybe I made the planet a bit warmer LOL)

Careful with a powerwasher. The pressure can force water into the wheel bearings.
