I am putting Avon Cobras on the Nomad. Speed is running them and getting great milage so I thought I would give them a try. I took off Bridgestone Excedras that I only got 6k miles out of so I'm hoping for more on these Tyres.
I'm running Michelin pilot road 4s on the Meanie and really like them but they don't come in the sizes I needed for the Nomad.
Getting ready for riding season which will be here soon. Today was a beautiful riding day but I had too much to do to ride. Dangit.

I am suffering from a sever case of Bike withdrawal. My patience for Winter has run out. Must find somewhere where I can ride year round.

Come to South Texas, with some good leather you can ride all year round without a problem!

Come to South Texas, with some good leather you can ride all year round without a problem! South Carolina is currently the front runner Raven, but you never know. The cost of living in SC is about half what I got here in NH. Property tax alone on my modest house here is nearly $7K! I can buy a bigger house down there for less than half of this place and the property tax is tiny compared to it. Plus, I'm a OLD fella so I get even more tax breaks in the Southern states. But Hell, would love to come down and visit sometime. I clean up pretty well and Ellie doesn't usually have to apologize on my behalf too much.

Just close to me (10 min ride)is the devils backbone, then we have the three twisted sisters and several others. A few of those roads we have gone 8 hours without any cell service at all. I work on call so that to me is an amazing thing.

Canyon Lake, I am north of San Antonio and south of Austin. Another good area is about an hour west of me on Medina Lake. Houses are cheap and taxes are really low. Climate is good, I can ride year round for the most part and being in the hill country the roads are beautiful.
