...I'm happy to see 2020 in the rear view mirror!

Nevertheless, some bright spots still shone through in the otherwise crazy, unreasonable, strange and dangerous year of 2020.

Some of my highlights:

Building a chicken coupe out of scraps -- except for most of the hardware.

Riding with my son for the first time...at least since he was 10 and riding pillion.

Resurrecting two bikes...one -- a 2004 CRF250X given to me, and the other -- our 2003 Shadow that had been sitting too long.

Cleaning the carbs on Hildr the Valkyrie -- along with performing plenty of other overdue maintenance items on the old girl.

Learning a lot about carburetors...learned so much that my next bike will be fuel injected!

Not loosing my company after being completely shut down by the disease...

Teaching my son the ins and outs of my business...

Plenty of time to ride!

Anyway, here's some pictures commemorating a few parts of my 2020...

...and CHEERS to an easily much better 2021!

Ride safe y'all!

That's funny because carburetors aren't.   Grin

Nice pics Charlie. Happy New Year to all. I'm glad you and your business have survived this crazy time. We have been fortunate also. i'm going to try and take a little more time away from the shop and do a bit more cruzin. Give me a holler if you or y'all are out and about.
