Took a short ride yesterday, Wal-Mart, post office and things like that. 10 or 11 miles total for the day.

I'm still riding my bike the way it is, I just skip 4th gear when I'm shifting.

Rode with the grand boys on their mini bikes, now I can't move
my left shoulder. Ouch!

I rode to Apache Gold Casino, which is just past Globe AZ, about 170 miles round trip. I left home about 8:30 AM, the ride up was great, but the ride home was pretty hot. Lots of cops on US-60 today, usually I only see 1 between here and Globe, must have been 5 or 6 today.

I went to Payson on Friday. I saw some cops on the road too. Almost got in trouble. I was passing a car towing a camper doing about 105 and the cop had someone pulled over about mile away or a little less. I am glad I slowed down. I've also seen a cop a few times parked on the south side of 87 near the casino, in a Tahoe.

Not today, but I rode 3,058 miles in the past week.

Didn't ride today, been raining all day. Did put a coat of wax though.

Little 600 mile ride up to Plains, GA for lunch with some friends. Good eats, good friends, great roads.

We put a few hundred miles on the bikes today in memory of three fallen members of our Blue Knights chapter. We rode from Pocatello to Jackson, Wy and back. Great day.

That is an outstanding ride for you guys. I did something similar with a few of my regular riding friends in honor of a fellow rider. Emotional when you ride roads and stop where you have stopped prieviously with them.

I had to pick up my daughter at her friends cottage after work today, I rode about 225 miles in just over five hours.

Rode the last 3 days. Rode to Silt, CO to meet up with some friends. We then rode the Grand Mesa and McClure Pass. It was then back to home. Close to 800 miles.

Rode all over seacoast Maine the past three days. About 500 miles.
