Has anyone around here had their Monster out yet? I went about 25 miles yesterday in the sun shine.  Tongue

Not me. I'm 15 miles away from Lake Michigan and that keeps it cooler.
Last weekend WarrenJ made a successful spring ride.
My first or second ride this spring will be to the shop for some maintenance.
Hopefully that happens soon. This morning we had a light mix of rain, sleet and snow... bang head

I got two trips in - about 75 miles, before the weather got bad again.  Where is the Ducati shop moving to?  I will try to get out Sunday again, but I want to kayak too - kayaking is cheaper and unfortunately  that's important right now.

The new shop is on 114th and Greenfield. They wanted to buy a place rather than renting and they couldn't buy their current building. Tongue

Both those locations are about an hour further away for me than Saukville, and that was about an hour and a quarter.  I liked that Saukville shop.

Threw the battery in and went to the gas station for a fill the other day. getting impatient. Drove by the new shop last week. should be "much" bigger. My guess is that they wont be in until end of summer. Not sure I like the new location, but if they sell more bikes, then all will be good. Traffic in the new area is an absolute nightmare.

I'm waiting to meet Brady at Retrospeed in Belgium. His father was in a bad accident last Friday so things need to settle down first. Hopefully he will make a good recovery.

I haven't even gone through one full tank of gas since getting the bike out of the shop the weekend after Memorial Day. Such an exciting summer here in WI. coffee

With the down sizing by my employer,  although I remain for now I just got back from leaving the Ducati on consignment with a dealership. Too much time wasted at work with little desire to ride when I am at home.
