lol I've had more to do than I usually do during riding season

2 surgeries, a new bicycle that I've been training and general getting into shape, painting bodywork, fixing my F4i (crashed last trackday), getting an onboard video system set up, changing all fluids in all of mine and my dad'sbikes, organizing my office, getting all this paperwork and schedules ready for 2007, working out sponsorships and budgets, helping open a new dealership, copying all the races on my tivo onto DVDs, bought all new leathers, gloves, helmet, am getting my leathers altered/customized right now, plus obviously my real job, starting my web site, also been doing some rogue new rider instruction on my GS500

thats all I can think of at the moment, I'm sure I'm leaving something out my pain meds are workin pretty good right now lol

I am painting my entire bike myself, plan on polishing my rims, swingarm, and frame. Also have to put on new brake pads, an ignition advancer and I am putting an undertail exhaust on it with a custom diamond plate undertail. By the way I have a 2000 F4.

Riding. [8D]

But also polishing the rims, changing the oil/filter, installing frame sliders, changing front brake pads, install new rear tire, and school.

I've been riding till this past week..We've had some really rainy,cold and icy conditions here in Southern Louisiana that is unusual for our part of the state..But I have been getting the race car ready for a upcoming GM High Tech Photo shoot this Friday at State Capital Dragway in Baton Rouge ,LA..Its going to be suspension article which will include me and 4 other cars..

If nothing else it will be nice to have a track rented to just 5 vehicles for the day..Should have some pictures up this next Saturday..I'm going to spend the night after its over with my daughter who lives in Baton Rouge..Here is a couple of shots of thecar at recent test and tune in Texas..The car ran a best of a 10.14 @ 130 with a 1.28 60'..Track was really cold and the car has a little left in it so we are looking forward to this deal..
