So, during a conversation with the boss on Friday, he asked "How are you with applying decals?"
Sorta saw it coming. So far, he's applied all of the decals to the standard black-and-white bikes himself, and I figured he'd tap me in for the job at some point.
So, we coordinated. After I finished up at the museum on Saturday, I headed to his place, and traded the '21 R1250RT I've been riding for a newly purchased 2015 R1200RT still wearing its plain black and white police colors. He showed me how the blood bike livery decals, which are produced in England, are packaged. They're carefully wrapped in paper sleeves, with detailed instructions on where each of the dozens of decals are placed to form the hi-viz yellow mosaic around the bike, which is then topped with reflective decals.
This will be a fun project!

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.
