Well I met my personal goal.

After buying my bike in August of last year, adding a Valkyrie trunk and a road glide fairing, tearing it down over the winter and painting I wanted to see how many miles I could get on it this year. This is my first big bike and my last one was a 185 enduro 30 years ago. Well tonight I went on a 20 mile ride in 42 deg. Temperatures and hit my 5,000 mile goal for the season. My wife loves riding so that helps.

Already planning trips for next year as I think I may be done unless for some reason it warms up but it sure doesn’t look like it.
