We're going tomorrow to get my buddies Versys 1000 from the shop, hit a deer in the fall and it spent all winter there getting fixed. Going to be trailering it cause there is still a lot of ice on the roads here.
Nice.
Never could get into Kawi's. Don't know why cause that's a nice looking bike. Probably more of not liking the local dealer. Been thinking about a FJ-09 or better yet waiting for the Tracer GT

I had no idea it took so long to fix a deer.
and they make a heck of a smelly mess when you park em up for awhile
.
In Aus we have kangaroo sometimes they jump before you hit them ive herd of them ending up going through the windscreen. never a good result especially on a motorbike.

Me, I spend my non-snow months riding a mtn bike but not just downhill, full cross country. What goes down must ride up! Spent 15+yrs as a racer, lots of ultra-indurance racing. I live in one of the most desirable places in the world to ride a Mtn Bike, and I am 2min from the trail system! Loads of camping with the family. And the constant reno's of the house!
Winters are spent skate skiing and playing hockey (also coach both sports, one I do get paid for)

I play guitar a bit, and have a 66 Chevy pickup that I am rebuilding in my garage. Frame off rebuild, all new suspension, front discs, power breaks and steering added. Added a 350 crate engine and a 5 speed trans from a Camaro.
Having a crack at rescuing these native Stingless bees In an irrigation box.
Client asked me to kill them I said ill go one better and take them and give them a new home.
I dabble in singless bees as a garden feature.
Bottom left corner is the brood that's the bit I aimed at taking.
Them yellow round pods are pollen.
The honey is up the back in them little honey bags.
It's all stuck together with resin from trees it's soo hard to get off.
This is real traumatic to the colony fingers crossed all that the Queen and remaining workers I take with the brood survive.

I remember you showing us a colony of little bees you have in your backyard on one of the first zoom calls. I do hope these little guys survive relocation.
