Absolutely crazy what is going on....Have you seen what the happening to the stores in California, specifically San Francisco? A law change turned a felony theft into a misdemeanor. Large groups walking into stores, taking what they want, and walking out. Nobody stopping them.
What you did to your Tenere today??!!

Causing at least one entire chain to leave the city. Some neighborhoods are in deep chit with no kind of food or med service.Have you seen what the happening to the stores in California, specifically San Francisco?

...This too shall pass, but it won't be pretty. Law and order is not negotiable.
Yeah, it's gonna get worse before it gets better.

I have confidence in your words. At least we have the right motorcycle to traverse the apocalyptic landscape. Your good intentions are evident. I'll end this train of thought and draw fire, friend.
Baltimore had a nice renaissance but over the last year it is like all that has come to an end. Motorcycles don't last when parked in sight.
My darling scientist little girl owned a renovated row house in Fed Hill till a couple of months ago, literally a couple of blocks from where Jenna Bush lived till mid-way into the Obama years. Really good neighborhood till about a year ago. Final straw was a couple of skinny guys walking their crime spree in from another neighborhood and trying to shake her down at her own front door. She's a large and strong 5'10" who takes no shit and the neighbor's door video showed the night ended bad for the one lad. She stepped in close to pepper spray him right in the face and when he fell off the curb she put her foot to his head then told the other guy to get him out of the neighborhood before she kicked both of their asses.
Glad to have her out of there now.

I'll bet you are. Good for her and that she left before reprisal, hopefully.

We’ve just had a mini crimewave round my town. We had a group of travellers pitch up a mile or so out of town, and surprise surprise, cars go missing every night, and quite a few vans got broken into and tools nicked by a gang of 6 masked thugs brandishing baseball bats and machetes threatening anyone that came anywhere near them. Police oddly never turned up, but then we only have a couple of Part time hobby coppers, both female, armed with a taser each, so no surprise they were never gonna rush in. The travellers have moved on and things seem to gone quiet, although I’m still parking my van with its side door tight to my motorhome.
Two of the many vans attacked.

Unfortunately political narratives have much to do with the undoing of many fine cities in the US....

Had the swing arm greased and a grease nipple installed.
Hopefully a couple of pumps every now and then and that job is over for ever.
Also have grease nipples on each dog bone bolt and one on the gear shifter pivot.

How do you like the windshield you installed? Trying to decide on which I should get.

I like it, but I added a Puig wind deflector on top of it. I am 6'5" so they are not looking to make stuff for me. Normal sized people it should be just fine.

Getting ready to do my oil change and the Rotella T6 I normally use is unobtanium. Now there's an oil shortage too, wth?
