    I'm in Tecumseh Ontario just outside of Windsor which is right across from Detroit Michigan. We are the most southerly county in Canada we are at 81'F right now at 8 pm est time and I wish it was still winter because I can't ride right now:angry: :angry: :angry: dam pinched nerves!!:wtf:

    Picked the BluePearl name from paint colour of my last HD "Sinister Bluepearl" it was a 95th anniversary colour on my 98 lowrider -- very cool pearl colour or color for our American friends !!

    Good to hear you're liking your newly freshened up ride. Hit 20C Saturday (roughly 72*F) here in the Cape, right on the freezing mark this AM:cussing: but I'm biking to work anyway,just hope it doesn't start raining.
