This year, winter just seems to go on and on and I am becoming tired of it too.
Hope you can retire soon and not go too far south; the heat can be a bitch too.
I watched a video yesterday; "The World's Fastest Indian" (motorcycle) and had the urge to jump on the SH and see if I could duplicate the guys feat; at least in my mind; but damn cold weather put a damper on my desire.
Wouldn't mind moving to New Zealand though......Good movie

So how are you gonna modify the 150 so you can lay down on it & set a new record?
Now that I'd like to see done with the SH (kinda like the OCC build that one year hahaha) :?

I moved from Chicago to Las Vegas Oct. 2016. I don't miss the Chicago winters or the traffic. The three months June, July and August are brutally hot, but if you head north the temperature does decrease quite a bit. The sky is almost always sunny here and not cloudy and dreary for weeks at a time. If you look at the Intellicast map you can see what I mean about going north to get to cooler regions.
