It's Thanksgiving day in the US.



I'd like to take a moment and thank everyone here who has helped me with my bike and made me laugh, or frown, and even given me the opportunity to help out in whatever little way as well.

I have certain stresses in my life that are eased by riding my motorcycle, and by hanging out on this forum - I consider many of you friends, even though I haven't met most!

So, thanks everybody, and to the US members... enjoy the day!

 And Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours as well Matt.

 One among the innumerable blessings that me and my house enjoy and are thankful for is the brotherhood and fellowship we have here.

 To all, Happy Thanksgiving.
No matter where you go, there, you are.

I feel the same way Matt. My family is over 1,200 miles away I couldn't make the trip this year to be with them.

BUT it's going to hit 60 today and my gear's already by the door and I'll be on the road for a nice ride. And I'm thankful for that as last year there was snow on the ground by this time.

And a Happy Thanksgiving to all of you, too.  I'm off to visit my daughter this morning on my RE.  I hope it likes cold weather as it is in the 30's and windy right now.  At least the roads are dry.

My 2011 B5 never gave a damn about those temperatures; yours should be fine.  Better wear your Bronko Nagurski long underwear, though...

 Cold weather motorcycling can be good for the mind and soul.
