Let's Put the Starbuck's Controversy to Rest

I guess this explains Little Brother's constant comment at stops, "Bet there ain't a Starbucks in this town!".

I caught Nate just as he was climbing back onto the bike after making eyes at the birkenstock clad earth-woman at the outdoor table. He is hiding a marble mocha macchiato in a carry-out cup in his left hand. He nearly scalded himself when I surprised him with the camera. I realize this casts a taint upon our whole family but it's best to air this sort of dirty laundry and be done with it. We'll just have to learn to accept him like he is..... Nah.

It's rainin' so here's a few pics from last night.

Here's the SwampThing strapped down for transport. For your protection not his.


The answer to the question, "What's in your garage". When equipped this way a common garage becomes a Stable.


Same scene with Nate's Jekyll featured.


See Nate pickin' his nose.....


Our steeds:

Hey Y'all! We're off.....

Yesterday we got together and made a shakedown run on the bikes then checked for loose fasteners (blue loctite is my friend!) Nate had already run out of fuel once before I even got here - it seems whoever prepped the bike put the petcock on reserve and about a gallon of fuel in it. Our poor mother had to bring him fuel out in the middle of nowhere...

Waterboy,
look into the KLX250/KLX650. They were made from '93 to'97 and there are some really good examples on the market for around 2500 to 3000. Nate's KLX250 is very similar to them if not the same bike.

Nate's bike rocks! Sure it's a little down on power from the KLR650 but it really makes up for it in weight savings. And that SUSPENSION! Oh, Man! It just soaks up everything!

For the record, I was the first to jump Nate's bike.

The AudioBlogs won't have titles, sorry.
