The Long Walk

Yeah, today was kind of interesting. After a quick ride out to the beach yesterday doing just a surf check the bike began acting up once again. Mother fucker! So when I finally got the SV650 home I called the bike shop. They were kind of swamped so I said I’d take it in this morning.
So I head down to the garage and fire it up, completely expecting it to not run well but oddly it ran just fine. I decided to head over to the shop anyway and see if it would act up on the ride over….nothing. After a quick conversation with the mechanic I decided to just put some fuel treatment in the tank in hopes it would help.
Autozone is only a few blocks away so I headed over there and dropped some fuel treatment in the tank and immediately it began acting up once again. Back to the shop to drop it off but just as I get there it runs just fine once again….son of a bitch!
I decided to leave it there and just have them run it on the dynamometer and hopefully they’ll find and fix the problem.
The bike shop is about three miles away and I wasn’t about to pay a damn cab driver $15 for a three mile ride. Fuck that. So I bit the bullet and walked back.

About
I'm a seasoned 33 year old web designer originally from Cincinnati (born in Wilmington) and now living in West Palm Beach. I specialize in high-end PHP and CSS sites as well as fully functional Wordpress and E-commerce sites for various clients.
Even though I'm from Ohio I'm a die hard South Florida Surfer and beach guy. I picked up the sport over five years ago and never looked back. Any chance I get I'm in the water, which is sometimes rare considering that South Florida is fairly inconsistent with surf. Those days we do get are always a great gift.
The blog itself is primary here to communicate with family and friends. If you're looking for my professional site you can go to http://www.mynameisdamien.com/ for a full resume, portfolio and blog.
