if I leave around 6 or 7 I think I will be ok the nastiness will be past and looks like more rain further south so hopefully I would beat that to brooklyn. Curb stop being a showoff, anyone can ride in that stuff down there, up here we have these things called curves where you have to turn your motorcycle Tom |

I will need to get my ass in gear and get my TL back together sooner as opposed to later too. There are some decent twisties on LI but for anything good you need to hit bear mtn and further north. So far so good here lot of thunder but not much wind and little or no rain so far. radar has the nasty parts staying south of here. Looks like queens, BK and Long Island will get pummeled though. tom |

funny you should mention that - I rode in this morning and while I was in the office the sky opened up. I rode home before it got any worse after looking at the weather - in mesh gear
