Can't believe it 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
The weather here is just getting great for riding after a hot misrable summer. So this past weekend I goes downstairs and starts my heating system checkup. I look down and Notice a puddle under the #$%&@**+!@ boiler Pulled the jacket off and a nice leak in the casting So now instead of some riding I get to play boiler installer. And this is after 2 failed septic sustems and the flu in the middle of summer

I ain't a doctor, but I'm loosing me patient's


Should just throw a studded snow on her and ride this winter ! ! !

I would say no way to a studded snow tire and yes to moving to a warmer climate!

Winter check up? And to think we are just getting ready to harvest grapes in my neighborhood.

...I feel for you brother. Nothing like your house turning on you just when you want to go riding.

I feel for ya Coot.
I'm in the process of cleaning mine.
After that I have a couple parts to replace, then get a new pipe to connect to the chimney and finally build a chimney
Then I get to flush it out, test it, and pray for no leaks.

I think I screwed myself by getting a jump on it early this year instead of my normal routine of waiting utill there's frost on the inside of the windows and the wife starts packing to go see her sister in NC, heyyyy wait a minute, I might be on to something here Anyhow, the boiler god saw that I had plenty of time to replace it so here I am.

Screw it, it's still warm I'm gonna ride

Hey Coot to hell with the boiler, i know some woman that will keep you warm all day and warmer at night. Oh a bottle of single malt scotch goes a long way as well. As for the studded tire, let us know how that works for ya.
