Well, well, well...........this weekend is looking very dry but COLD. We
need to dry out after Sandy. I am sure plenty of folk still don't have
power. AND there are gas shortages in certain areas. The roads up here
are pretty clear. Don't forget its daylight savings this weekend. So
I will be at the circle on sunday at 10am. Post up if you are coming out.
I am not expecting a big crowd since many are still without power and its gonna be COLD. :dunno
I went out last night at 1:30am to get gas. Lines were still forever long. I can't even get up to New York at this point to get to that wonderful supply of gas!
Unfortunately its completely opposite in Northern Jersey. People are pulling guns on each other for the gas. Me and Alex just drained gas from his aprilia so i can get to gas station when its opens. Not sure about sunday, unless situation will totally change...
I was wondering when that was going to happen. You have a whole bunch of people who want the same thing, the level of inconsideration rises out of control.
Well the supply of gas is running low up here. Some stations have super only and the lines are long at certain stations. It was not like that earlier in the day. Hopefully the gas trucks will be rolling out ASAP!!!
We are almost out of gas here in monroe. Waited in line for over an hour only to have someone cut the line in front of me. People jumped out of their cars ready to beat the shit outta the person.
This situation is very bad. We are still w/out power,heat,water,etc. John saved my family by lending me his generator&I have already told him many times but Id like to say it here as well: THANK-YOU!!!
Thanks to Rob I finally got the tree's cleaned up that hit my house.
If im not tired and beat on sunday (though im feeling it now sore nd pain) I may show up. If any ill tk the ride least have coffee
You are welcome Rob, I am glad I could help. Like I said the genny needs to be run, it has been sitting idle for a year. I didn't use my tire warmers at
the track this year since my rear warmer is burnt.
Thanks for the wood Rob and Jay!!!! Both you guys have impressive houses, looking forward to some BBQs and breeskis. Rob that lake behind your house
is plain awesome. I wanna grow up to be like you guys.......LOL!!!!:cheers
See you guys at the circle at 10am.....will just hang out for a bit and have coffee.unk
We have plenty of gas here but no power to open the stations so unless they get power on I can't help with gas. As for a genny I have a spare I can wore in for someone if they need to borrow it.

What's up Scotty, I hope you made out ok in this mess.
Ernie and I rode down to the circle. I was able to get gas with no problem and no line at my usual gas spot. The roads were very empty with bikes. There was only 3 bikes at the circle. We hung out there for a little more than an hour and went back home. There was a line of cars waiting for gas but the lined died down right before we left. The gas truck was there.
Anyway it was very nice out early. The sun was out and the winds were very
lite. Not as cold as I thought. I was glad I was able to get a little ride in.
I hope all is back to normal next week.
With a high of 49 I will PASS. I wonder what kind of turn out they had today and will have tomorrow?:dunno I am re-grouping for next season on the track. Are you going this coming weekend???:shifty
If I can get a few more things done in next hour I'm heading down tonight. Possible next Sunday I am having turkey dinner with some family from floridia next sat. So we will see. Why you wanna go. Lol
That's great that you set up a Sunday run Johnny. I was wondering how everyone was doing. I got out on my bike Saturday just to get to the other side of town and grab some lunch. I then took a quick high speed blast on the Pulaski Skyway. It felt great.
My area got hit pretty hard. There are lots of big trees and many of them fell on power lines and homes. Fortunately I have no damage but I have no power and my Street is still closed to traffic ( it's a county road go figure). The biggest issue was not having heat. Burning wood in a fireplace doesn't cut it.
Yesterday I rigged up 300 foot temporary power line to a neighbors generator so I could get some heat. I ran it directly to my boiler so now the house is nice and toasty. hallelujah.
At least the cell service came back somewhat.
I'm also out of work for next week or two. My shop put me on furlough / temporary layoff. so if anybody needs an electrician for an emergency feel free to contact me.
stay safe and stay warm
Been riding the bike saving gas, syphening some from the truck to the bike - 35 mpg beats 15.. lol
also went shopping for groceries with the bicycle.. that was fun.. walked up and down 31 flights of stairs and held my balcony doors from bursting inwards during sandy. all over a good week i would say..
