The Czickness LIII….CZing into the summer with friends near and far.

When I took mine they provided the bike.

Yes, Abate provides a 250cc bike to use for their classes. From what I have heard, they use Honda Rebels.

So sorry to hear about Barb. Both of you will be in my prayers.

OK. I have news and it isn't good, MI amigos. Just home from the ER/hospital with Barb. They pulled 2.5 liters of fluid off her right lung.(No wonder she was having trouble breathing) Fluid seems to have come from a mass, high on her right lung near her esophagus. Spots found on her liver and brain seem to indicate metastacized lung cancer. Official diagnosis of type and preferred treatment await some lab work but it doesn't look good. Brain lesions mean she's probably done driving until a scan shows them cleared if we are lucky enough to get that miracle. Your prayers are asked for. Even you heathens and pagans. I love my wife and she's good people. Taking some time off work to figure this out. As you might guess, the FGE may be out the window so keep your powder dry.

Very sad to hear the news about Barb. I hope my prayers for both of you help.

I took my Abate class with a 250cc Cafe racer they provided. It was a blast. Stay safe bro.

Power just came back on...

Do you have a generator?

Morning everyone, haven't checked in for a couple days. Had an uncle pass and doing the funeral thing the last couple days. Patience, praying for you both and for a speedy recovery. Another example of life getting in the way of the plan.

Just put a new set of LPA fully adjustable fiber optic target sights on my CZ 75B 9mm pistol.
I can’t wait to get to the range and sight it in.

So sorry to hear this.
Try to keep positive for her, and yourself at this time.
I will continue prayers, and will request prayers for Barb at the local congregations down in my area.

I went to take my test riding a Kawasaki 1500 Vulcan. There was another fella there riding a 250 that had been in my shop a few times. He offered it to me and took him up on it. The last hard stop kept me from a perfect score.

The size of the motorcycle you take the test on doesn't matter near as much as the rake and trail of the fork. Excellent low speed handling is the key. A raked out fork is great at speed but really sux for the test.

Yes. I learned this the hard way when I took the test on my Wide Glide.

I should clarify. I didn't go down thankfully, just was a challenge with a longer rake.

Do you have a generator?

Yes, we have 3. One 9500 inverter, one 3500 inverter and one 7500 solar system.
