Thanks! Good to be back. Still working second shift but on 4 day work week. Been riding a bit on my 3 day weekends.

We should do another Galena back roads trip again some day.
You bet Mike... that would be fun.

Just let me know. We are running out of time this season. Last year I was able to ride up until the last of October then I quit. Of course, I don't ride when it is as cold as others do. Heck... I don't think "Gibby" ever hangs-up riding all winter in Minnesota. I am not so sure Cal doesn't ride some in the cold-weather too. I do not though. Wimp!!

Glad to hear you are working again. ;)

Still riding here almost daily and the temps are in the 90s and heat index in the 100 to 105 range. Nice while moving but very hot when stopped.

I wouldn't be surprised if we had an early fall in the northern regions this year. I hope not; but so far with La Nina controlling the weather, everyone's weather has been messed-up.

Hopefully El Nino will kick-in next year. Weather has a better chance of being "normal" when it is in effect.
