Bravo! That looks very nice.

Missed you all!

Claremont, California, Raven 4BW, on Towne at ~ 0805 Tuesday 2/20. You turned onto the 210E before I could get close enough to read your CA vanity plates. I was in the Highlander so you wouldn't have noticed anyway ... 1000 miles of driving in the last few days, and only one Blackwing sighting...

The best (only good) thing about working on Saturday ...

Got to test mine tonight, driving home on a dark rainy night when the a$$clown in the MBZ SUV one lane over started drifting over the (very tactile) lane divider toward me, I presume while texting. I instinctively hit the lower-middle of the steering wheel while shouting out a surprisingly...

Ooh, good question. I guess I'll need to hoon to find out. "But officer, I had to drive like this to answer Throat Yogurt's question on the forum!"

Just "windexy". But the cheap "Method" brand imitation windex I use to clean the glass is minty. I expect there's a range of products that might get filled in there ...

... windshield washer fluid. Whenever I accelerate hard, corner hard, brake hard, or otherwise hoon around, I smell windshield washer fluid. It's not that I mind the smell, but I can't help but wonder if something is amiss. The filler cap is secure, there's no evidence of sloshing that I can...

With the unexpected lack of rain, I popped over to Auto Vino to see who'd show up today. I met @kl_ct4 with a Watkins Glen CT4BW. Hope to see more of you out there! (3rd Sunday, every month)

Actually, in California, I'm pretty sure transition surgery is covered by insurance ...

I experimented with this a little bit today. Which on rain-wet roads made for a little squirelliness. I suppose there are slow ways to get to high RPM, but I don't need to know about those, do I? In first gear (sport mode) I get the green ring at 4000RPM and yellow ring at 5000. In second gear...

Does the bike go into the trunk with the seats folded down?

Sometimes the parking sensors disappoint me 😬

Happy New Year, everybody! Had a nice drive this morning out to overlook the fog covering the San Andreas Fault (from 35 & 92) ... ... and then out to the ocean (at Moss Beach Distillery)

When I saw this picture that I took, I wasn't sure if it was an artifact of the angle/cellphone lens (vs the Taycan GTS just having a fat butt).

Weather update: may be *ass* today. I'll be keeping an eye on the hourly forecast and will probably go if it doesn't look likely to rain before 1 pm. This event happens on the 3rd Sunday of every month, so if not today, hope to see Bay Area Blackwingers there in '24. Have a great week, everyone!

That's hot

Your grocery store parking looks much more relaxing and scenic than mine! I've been terrified to get groceries since I got the Blackwing (which only annoys the wife more). This is about the best grocery shopping spot I can get:
