Re: [ST] Bar raising

["Rich Pardo" <richpardo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the advice.

I rode this weekend, upstate NY is great for riding, especially 218 along 
the Hudson near West Point.

I think the bars aren't as bad as I initially thought, since I got off four 
hours later feeling no worse than when riding my Guzzi.

I'll give it a shot.
