Maybe a shorter ride, stay in the general neighborhood.  Macklind Deli, maybe some Manchester, some River Des peres?

Its a K& M air filter, you can obtain them at autozones. I suggest stealing.

Haha. :D Thanks!

The bike yesterday ran out of gas, when I flipped it to reserve this nasty Bad OJ/Chocolate Milk colored gas followed suit, carb became useless for more than 15 seconds of revving. :/
