Yo whatever you guys do let's do it! I'll join in if it's in the city or nearby the city. We could also do a barbecue meet or something since it's summer and all. I used to do that with the Maxima folks when I had my Maxima. We used to meet up at Busse woods and just hang and grill all day.

Most of our cruises start in Schaumburg and we go either south or west. Very little do we do things in the city. However, we have had annual bbq in the past.

Was just looking at seats the other day. I want something adjustable and quality.

I narrowed down to 2 brands:
- Bride <-- made for littler bodies
- Status

Can't just find the touring ones anywhere??

I wouldnt really recommend the touring seats. Their good seats but imo you can get better aftermarket ones for similar prices as new touring seats.

I haven't driven my car in 3 weeks! Although, my basement project is almost done now. My part of the work is pretty much done. Have someone coming in this week to custom build the bar and put down flooring.

Weekends are tough for me still too. I'm always training for some kind of race, and if I'm not training myself I'm training someone else. Just about all of the athlete's I'm coaching are doing the Naperville Sprint tri coming up next month so that will be busy!

I need to do another marathon now that I'm able to run again! Hopefully, next year I can pull that off. Haven't done a full or half in over a year! Good luck Zman! LMK if you need any help with the training.

Hey Pat! I MUST see these seats. I'm thinking of purchasing the same ones. Let me know when you install them in the Z. I'll even help if you need a hand?

osbornsm · 07-14-2014, 09:44 AM

P.S. What are all you people running from/for?

Running from age/body fat/heart conditions/etc. etc.... Try it....its fun!

So is it bad I have a pair of shoes with more miles on them than the Z this summer? lol Come to think of it, I think my bicycle has about 4x the miles on ith this summer!

Heck! My swim shorts may have more miles!
