Well, i picked up a very gently babied new toy, and I've been out farting around on it. Its a Aprilia Shiver. Those of you who do ride; How's your summer riding been so far?

Nice bike, been riding about 35 years, currently have a Buell XB12X, best bike I've ever owned, we get plenty of seat time in So Cal

A friend of mine just picked up a Shiver. He put a radiator guard and rock plate on it. Soon it will be on its way to to do the reverse of Che Guevara's famous trip across South America. There's no reason that bike can't go across a continent, never mind across the country. I guess we'll see: Colombia to Tierra Del Fuego will be its maiden voyage.

I got in a few great rides in the week of summer we have had on the wet side of WA. When it is not raining/snowing the weather is great here for riding.

My dad bought a Kawasaki Concours, and he's been riding all over the olympic peninsula. Strange how the wet side suddenly gets nice.

5 bucks says it'll be shitty/raining in a week though.
