not two wheels - but worth a mention. top down this light little car was close to riding a bike. No roll bar made me nervous when Alex would use it. I will miss it.

New front tire July 2013

Before the Hollister Rally I got the new Pirelli Angel GT. Gone is the winged angel pattern that wears off after 600 miles to expose a demon face on the ST. It's all business for this sport touring tire. Extra thicker tread and modified channel for the wet. Suppose to be longer lasting compound - we'll see. So now I have the ST on the rear and GT up front. 
New

Old

Took it slow and easy down to Hollister to add scrub in miles to the first 100. It was good to be out in the 75 breezy conditions smelling the strawberries growing by the highway. Very crowded people wise in town but, traffic moved well. Need to change my oil and filter before Laguna MotoGP. 

Remember when Harley made 90cc of bad ass?
