82 miles today. Rode to work then to the regional semi final girls' tennis match. Get to do another "work trip" on Thursday for the regional final match. Gotta love riding on the company dime.

Only 160 miles today. Between rain and work, it doesn't look like I'll get any more in next week.

The temps were in the low 80's and the sun was out so Crystal and I took off.
We rode east to Petit Jean State Park. We walked down to the Cedar falls overlook.
Had lunch at Mathers Lodge. Then headed home. 180 miles round trip.

Does riding the mower count? Had tornado watch and some rain in the area but got the yard mowed.

First ride of year! Only 35 miles but was 42 degrees when I left the house. Driver backrest on mustang seat is great. Highway pegs are good an I think the powder coated crash bars add some speed....

Rode about 250 miles today with my wife on the back of the nomad and my son on his Suzuki. We rode around three lakes, through endless forests, past flowing rivers and enormous granite mountains. So many miles of beautiful winding mountain roads. We barely touched the interstate. It was great. We are totally beat.

Rode 223 miles Saturday. Crossed the Atchafalaya Basin from Baton Rouge and ate lunch in Henderson, LA. Came back home through Lafayette and Morgan City. Beautiful day to ride.
