... and I'm a computer geek, not too much offends me anymore,... besides Jim's anatomy...


Hey, don't you talk about my buddy Brough that way!

That's *MY* area of expertise!


Uhm,.. Jim's Anatomy is your area of expertise?? I guess that's how you'd know which parts of him are hairy.  :stickpoke:

LOL! I'm a long ways from scratchin, spittin and fartin.  And my knuckles only come close to dragging cos the rest of me is so damn close to the ground too.  :duh:

This American's view of Canada:  Nice location for a new shopping mall, Home Depot (please, no Home Hardware stores) and a Wal-Mart.  Plus a few gazillion "undocumented" Messicans.


Hey, isn't this America's plans for the whole planet?

Not sure about the rest of Canada but here in Kamloops, BC we enjoy 30C+ summers and over 20C for at least 6 months of the year. Winters are short and mild. My kind of Canadian weather.

I know of more then plenty of places south of the border that can't match that climate.  :grin:

Yeah, it's looking more and more attractive for us to "border jump" over your way too.  That said, we got our first relief from the heat this week, and it's back on an upward swing as I type this.  Atypical for here to have so many warm days in a row, but certainly welcome after our winter.

Ya I was in Calgary at the end of July on business and noticed it was uncharacteristically warm there and had been for some time.

Hopefully it'll stay warm and mild for you guys into the fall. We're usually good for riding weather into October here. Fingers crossed. :D

Well, I often ride til Oct regardless of the weather.  As long as there's no white crap on the road, I'm out.  I'm typically a fair weather rider, but as the season progresses, I get more and more reluctant to get off the bike.   Heated grips have been the best investment I've ever made.  We're going to put them on Dita as well, as soon as I remember to pick them up from the dealer.  :wink:
