Also, I knew ^ looked familiar.





BINGO!
RC166, one of my favorite bikes of all time.

I drove 6 hours each direction to NJ to pick up my DRZ.

I can only ride on weekends because of work during the week/short daylight hours. Plus I've been traveling a bit for work.

Got the bike beginning of January.

I've ridden it TWICE since then. That's right....TWICE. Rains every freaking weekend I swear...

If it was a quick rain and then done, no problem at all.

But it seems like all the rain we've been getting is for a couple or few days at a time, which as you've seen makes Dam Neck a big swamp.

Very true. It was pretty soft when I went there and it was barely even wet that day.
