Got out and had about 100 miles today to a soccer game and then back to school and home. It was 86 on the way to the game, about 60 when I was coming home. Tough living in Florida.

Rode about 140 today to girls' sectional weightlifting meet and then to our JV wrestling tournament. Beautiful weather to ride.

I did get to ride 22 miles yesterday. Had a doctor's appointment. Then went to the grocery store to pick up a few items. Won't get to ride today as they are predicting 100% chance of rain.

I woke up with beautiful weather, 60's. I had to get it out just to get gas. (4 miles) plan on leaving work early so I can head down to Lake Mead.

Not as warm today, high 40s, but I rode 9 miles to fill up the Nomad. Now the nearest station with 100% gas is 9 miles away. 18 miles total ridden today.

I did ride today but only 3 miles. Just had to run to Wal-Mart and took the Nomad rather than the car.

Just too windy yesterday so we postponed our ride. Todays weather should be great for a ride.

Got in about 200 miles today for a bite to eat at Blackwater Inn on the river in Astor, FL. Nice place and got to share some great conversation with a few friends.

Ron Hunt and I took a little 165 mile ride from here in valley up to the plateau and back was not as warm as they said it was going to be but we still enjoyed it even stopped at a Cracker Barrell for lunch.

February and still riding my motorcycle! I don’t think I will ever be able to say that in this parts of the county again!! Had to get the Boulevard out this week since the Nomad is up in the air with the rear wheel out.....gettting ready to put a CT on it. Ended up going for a 50 Mile round trip(dinner trip with the wife) after work!

I had 3 level anterior cervical fusion January 5. I should be going back to work next week. In some ways it's better, but the recovery takes a long time.
