First ride of the year
Winter refuses to loosen its grip on western Montana, parked the Wing in the garage at the end of November and still too much snow and ice to get it over to the shop for minor pre-season tinkering. So finished up a Honda 90 for the wife, and took it out for a little test ride, handles better in the snow. Maybe this week can get the Wing in for service, but did get 3" of new snow this morning, snow in forecast all week.
