sadly i report back to everyone that reads my blogs a little disappointed.... i had calculated my tax returns being closer to 2-3k... they were a lot less than that.... and though i am closer to an fz6r... i'm starting to wonder if i should just settle for a ninja 500..... by the time i reach for an fz6r... it will at least be a year or two from now.

looks like im sitting closer to the 2k mark, i was anticipating sitting closer to 3200.... with my tax returns...but thats just not...

i talk about my best friend Raphael a lot on this forum, and i really don't know where to post this, i'd like it to be a post in the forum rather than my blog... but my blog is where it seems to fit.

Raphael believes that riding pants are overrated, he has crashed his nighthawk cb250 3 times in jeans, without a jacket, but with gloves. he knows that a helmet and gloves are important but thinks that riding gear is overrated and that i shouldn't waste my money on riding gear before...

after my last camping "adventure" in the cold i realized that i was not as fully equipped as i had imagined i was... a tent is a great shelter....but not 100% water proof...more food is better than what i had packed when it rains it gets cold and stays that way... i also learned that i didn't have a proper knife or half of what i would need in the case that i really needed to survive. Raphael ( c'mon now you guys should know who he is by now!!) and my self took it upon our selves...

you could call this a rant about stupid people lol i was "lurking" on craigslist, hunting down any potential bikes, hoping to find a fz6r or cbr 250 or something i dno i do this shit almost every day.... looking for a good deal. well there is a 1995 kawasaki ninja 600 on there... the bike looks great.. the add says HAS TO GO!!!...his price :

$2750.......like what the sex! what makes this dude think his 95 is worth that price? it has 16k on it... i can turn around...

i just wanted to update, i did go camping for a few days in temperatures between 41-22 degrees.... im pretty exhausted after all the hard work keeping the fire going and restless nights.... the first night it rained and some how the bottom of the tent near my feet got wet and my feet got really cold so i was freezing.... the second night we squished 4 people into my little two man tent and we were all warm but had no room to move...i want to type more but im too tired lol so for now.... im out
