Where? In your house? In your head? Not hearing voices anymore? Allow me to prompt them: go work on your CT!

Lol! I was referring to the forum in general Weld
But now that you mention it, working on my CT will probably make the voices in my head stop :P My CT goal over the holidays will be to get it wired up and start sorting out the exhaust, spring is only... Umm, too far away! :(

You are correct MICRider. Spring is a long ways off for us Albertans. My DRZ is parked outside my kitchen window, I look longingly at her every time I do the dishes. Sigh....oh well Merry Christmas.

Maybe everyone is out shopping.

Just been busy as a one legged man in a rump kicking contest.
Between the holidays, working on our friend's log house when we can, trying to find another house for us, on top of being gone from home 12 hours a day, due to work....it just doesn't leave much time for much else. :(
Getting a little burnt, at this point. My bikes have turned into drinking partners. :?

Too much work is better than too little these days, although I doubt that provides much consolation.

How about a vacant house across the street with trails right behind it.

We already use all 1200sqf. I get 10 of that.

Sounds good to me! I wonder if I can send myself and my son by expedited parcel? Would save a bit on airfare

No pics but Roger and I had a great ride today in The Great Frozen Desert. Super sunny calm winds but only 35 degrees made for AWESOME riding weather. We tore up the local hills, and laid in the grass on our jackets heads propped up on our bikes in the sunsine on top of the Hill Of Doom. We talked about the real meaning of Christmas and how blessed we are.

It may only be our core group here for the most part but we are blessed to have one another to hang out with.
