British Airways flight 287 from London Heathrow to San Francisco International took off on time and landed seven minutes early. All-in-all the flight was much smoother the one going out from JFK.

I only took a moment to dig a little deeper into a passing FaceBook comment today, I mean. Sweeping aside the dust and noise I found the rather shocking new that Jules died ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I've actually been out riding with friends, I forget just how much fun it is. I also forget just how forking slow I am in the twisties.
