Go anyway, I was out for the first time on April 9 and it wasn't exactly warm here. It was a great ride, the lake all to yourself, I really didn't feel the cold. I've been three times since. This weekend is supposed to be decent, 75 on friday, 78 sat., rain sun.

Well I had planned to go Friday morning. Friday evening, all Saturday - this Wednesday was calling for rain. Thursday I woke up at 5:30 and spent from around 6:30am to 7:00pm with little to no breaks completely detailing the crap out of my truck. (work sucks but result is awesome!). Thursday night I decide against my better judgment to drive it to my girl friends house after all that work. My front passenger brake caliper failed about half way there and I had some smokin' breaks by the time I arrived.
I left it at my gf's for the night and rigged it enough Friday evening to drive home. Come to find out Saturday morning that the rubber brake hose that I decided to replace with the caliper was a special order part so I wouldn't get it till Sunday morning. Ended up getting it and spending all Sunday replacing that and trying to flush a system that was way over do. The whole weekend turned out goregous and in the low 80's. I'm pretty upset I didn't even get to make it to the lake.
Sorry for the long rant.

I pulled mine out to get them ready for a ride yesterday. Went to church. When I left church I got a message I had a flight I had to cover... So put them back away and hit the airport an hour later....

i got out sunday, my xp ran great, the spx stoped getting fuel magically, and the gts started bogging again, not too good of a day for me.

I noticed the name Coastiejoe. Are you in the USCG?
Watson,
I was. Retired after 23 years. But I was in what they call a PSU (Port Security Unit). A bit different than the tradition CG world. Here is a pic of the boat I used for most of the tour...
