Wow, what a cool trip, Pdedse! Really look forward to doing something like that soon.
Berta got some love Friday. The way our delivery schedule is working out so far, I only had one trip lined up for late Friday.
Since I had time to kill early in the day and was technically on the clock, I asked the boss if he’d mind if I did some maintenance on the bike. I could tell it could use a brake fluid flush and bleed, and the oil in the sight glass was pretty dark.
He said of course, and since I have a company card for gas, I spent the early part of the day I did an oil change, flushed the brakes and topped off the coolant. As long as I had a good bit of the bodywork removed, washed out the grime on the engine and inner parts.
Then jumped on for the afternoon delivery and she felt much smoother.
Still super hot up in the Valley area north of Downtown LA, but looks like the heat wave we’ve had for the past few weeks is finally coming to an end.

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.
