R6 Back in Action

Last Saturday I worked on the bike. You may remember I destroyed the right side of it in a crash on the track three weeks ago. Well Ebay is my friend and I got all of the parts. Last Saturday my buddy Dan and I stripped it down, and put it all together. The only remaining damage is the dented tank but that's just cosmetic (and $350 for a new one). Sunday Chris, Cam, Octavia, Peter, Greg and I rode over the pass next to Mt.Rainier. It was really, really hot and a lot of miles but we saw some beautiful scenery and got practice on some sweet twisty roads. I'm stoked to be back in the saddle and rode to work every day this week (except today... it was pouring).

Tonight my dad arrives for a night's stay on his way down to the Snake River canyon with his motorcycle. I'd go with him but 600 miles in two days is a bit much for a sport-bike. Tomorrow I'm playing paintball. It'll be a good chance to shoot at some of my friends. Also, I'm stoked as Hamilton is going to try and get work down here in Seattle. I hope he gets a job soon so we get him down here ASAP.
