Ummmm 56 so far, lol. Going to St. Augustine tomorrow though. Actually rode with Joe for 8.1 miles on Ozello Trail near my house. Fun road to ride and great company with the Motorcycling Florida Style people. Couldn't do any more than that because of a football game last night.

Well, I had company at the house all weekend ( son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter). Put a sizeable dent in the riding, but managed to squeeze in 150 miles Friday, and 250 miles Saturday. There's always tomorrow, right ?
toddster, I use to go to the southwestern part of your state twice each summer. Highlands, NC to be exact. Ever ridden over that way? Looks like it would be a hoot to ride.

Yes, Highlands is a great area to ride.

I would have liked to have put some miles in this weekend,but my circumstances wouldn't allow it. I did ride the bike back to my house from Mom's which is where is was from last Sunday's storm. I hope to ride some tomorrow for a bit. Gotta get my butt ready for the ride to W Va. LOL.

Wow, I am very jealous of those that got lots of miles this weekend. We've had rain and strong winds all weekend, but I'm really not complaining. We're in a severe drought, and we need all the moisture we can get at this point. I think the rain is supposed to stop tomorrow, so hopefully I can get a few miles on.

I only got to ride a little over 400 miles Saturday, I filled up twice and still have a 1/2 tank left. Gas cost me $26.52, and I averaged 43.7 mpg using 87 octane , Not too bad at all. I spent today doing the things you have to do around the house :(
