I went to Austin Tx for the motorcycle trackday Sunday and Fredricksburg some hour or so onto the west the day before--the wife and I had a great day shopping in Fredricksburg Saturday-great history--Admiral Nimitz hometown and and his museum--tons of Wineries have sprung up all around there--lots of wealthy people ..high dollar ranches/"hunting"...if in the area it has great motorcycling nearby..so a big bit of antique's/biker's/wino's/high end sports cars/music people....up 6 am to the track just outside the Austin Airport and had put the wife's Suzuki GSX 650f on the trailer vs the Valkyrie as I had originally meant to take the Valkyrie with the tourer windshield to avoid the massive wind blast on the 2 very long straight-aways as the heat was suffocating and the Suzuki with 'lil windsceen would give more air with the required head to toe leathers---of course for 10 years it has started perfectly within 2 seconds..and this time I turned the key and some default screen popped up saying no go--a quick $100 battery change as my group lined up ...and still no go-the on-site mechanic said I had to take it to the dealer ...$400 non-refundable entry fee

.....I believe in Karma...it wasn't meant to be..always next time
