I got my blog going just so I could remember things that I did or what the weather was like over time. Basically just a diary.

I was supposed to do a 500 miler this weekend to the Bay Area and Wine country but had to get a new rotor put on the Bonneville. The rotor got put on in time but now I am just not psyched up for the trip.

I will just do it next weekend probably and most likely the traffic won't be as bad as this weekend. When I picked up my bike in Reno this afternoon, they had an old Silver Sprint out front for sale. Not as clean as your. Probably 3-4 years older. It kind of has the half fairing. I did not get a chance to look at it as I was in a hurry but maybe tomorrow I'll take a cruise down there and check it out.

Very enjoyable log of the trip. Bump for continued reading later.

Love that last generation of Sprints. They just look so comfy. Though the new generation is nice too. The 2005s just look more sport bike than tourer.
Thank you ... it was a great trip and the write up was fun as well... I agree that the old gen looks like a proper british bike, with curves that remind me of the Jag E-Type. ... now off to your blog.. lol
