New Bike is in!

Well...Last Friday (March 7th, 2008) I picked up the new beemer. It's a 2008 BMW R 1200 GS, Namibia Orange!

Date: March 7th, 2008
My General Condition: Drooling
General Observations: Smoother Ride than I could have imagined.
Starting Point: Gill, MA
Ending Point: Home
Miles Ridden: 37
General Weather: 52 degrees at the Start and 41 degrees at the end and cloudy
Ride Conditions: Mostly dry roads, the occasional puddle
Interesting Events: Backs of my legs got wet from the few little puddles...hmmm...will have to look into a resolution to that. Think it has something to do with the open design in the frame...believe there are body parts to add on which, keep you dry.
