Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far? - Page 4

Blue Rebel · 07-04-2010, 10:38 AM

Basically just used the bike all day yesterday to run around instead of the truck. About a total of 100 mi.

**coacha** · 07-04-2010, 10:40 AM

Rode up to Tallahassee for lunch yesterday. Total trip was 380 miles. Good day of riding, overcast most of the day, temps in high 80's, low 90's and a little shower to cool us off.

This is my trip report for yesterday. I was just too tired last night to get on the computer. I did manage to have a leasurely 48 mile ride. It was relaxing although a little too hot.

Gene, don't you work at K-Mart? Checking out the competition?

AlabamaNomadRider · 07-05-2010, 10:49 PM

Yes I started working at K-Mart back in April. I work at the K-Mart in Albertville, Alabama.

I did the round trip to work today and a trip to my competition, Wal-Mart, and managed to get in 15 miles today.

AlabamaNomadRider · 07-06-2010, 11:56 PM

Did the round trip to work today plus a short trip to the grocery store. Total enjoyable miles ridden was 14.

Still no riding for me since the SC rally. Rain every day and worked every night/day since Tuesday of last week. Off today but back tomorrow until Tuesday of next week. Then 7 days off. I'll get some riding in on those days off if these monsoons ever end.

AlabamaNomadRider · 07-07-2010, 10:53 PM

Rode to work and then after work I went for a short ride. It was very hot or would have ridden more. Ended up putting 39 miles on for the day.

Haven't had too many opportunities to ride since I finally became employed again in May (I was out of work from Jan 08 until May 10.) Anyway, it had been a couple of weeks since I had been on a ride. This morning after I finished my shift at 7 am, my wife and I left for a PGR mission. The ride out was pretty nice but by the time the service concluded at 11 am it was getting pretty hot. Made it home and hit the sack by 12:15 because I'm working tonight. Total miles was only about 45 or so.

**coacha** · 07-08-2010, 09:09 PM

Bob, glad to hear you are back to work.

I rode out to the school to go over some paper work and then back home. Just about 24 miles is all I got in.

AlabamaNomadRider · 07-08-2010, 10:58 PM

Did the round trip to work today plus a few extra miles running some errands. I do have a trip tomorrow as I will be riding up to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. I will total about 120 miles for the roundtrip. Looking forward to the ride.

Blue Rebel · 07-08-2010, 11:18 PM

Just to work and back for today.

AlabamaNomadRider · 07-09-2010, 11:14 PM

Had the day off and had to ride to Redstone Arsenal at Huntsville, Alabama. Rode 124 miles total for the day. It was enjoyable but way too hot. Filled up with gas prior to going and on the way back home I filled up again. I got 41.7 MPGs for the trip. Not too bad I guess.

**coacha** · 07-09-2010, 11:35 PM

No ride on Friday. But I will ride Saturday. My ride will be in honor of my friend Louis, who was taken off life support today. He suffered a heart attach earlier this week after someone pulled a gun on him during a repo. Pegs down in your honor tomorrow Louis, may the good Lord find you a great riding companion to scrape boards with.

Sorry to hear about your friend Coach. Bad things sometimes happen to good people.
