Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

Just got back 30 minutes ago from a 34 mile ride. It is really hot out.

Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

Got off night shift on Friday morning and rode from Pasadena up to Groveton TX to visit my dear Mother. Had a good visit. Was warm enough at 85 at 830 this morning when I left up there, but since they were forecast for a high of 103 to 105 I decided to come home this morning instead of roasting this evening. Had an enjoyable and uneventful ride and got home right at 11 am. Only 120 miles, but it sure does the mind good to get out on the highway.

Took a nice Sunday afternoon ride today. The crops are starting to ripen, so it was a nice tour of the fields of wheat that are turning gold. Wind was light, which is rare, so that was an added bonus. Put on about 175 miles.

Finally, a really nice day out today. Morning temps around 70 actually felt a little chilly! We took a big circle loop around the (outside of) Twin Cities. A little over 300 miles, 13 counties, 2 states, and spent about 11 hours out enjoying the day. :)

Here is a question - how many motorcycle cylinders can you fit into one parking stall? Answer: 24 when they are in 3 Boss Hoss bikes. They were parked in the drive-in where we stopped for dinner. Crazy bikes. One with a nos kit worked in under the tank.

Thought it was going to rain this morning so I drove the car instead. After I got home I had to run an errand and rode the bike but only 5 miles total.

Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

Finally!!! I got a chance to get out for a ride. By myself, but I enjoyed it just the same. I've been so busy with the roofing project here at home and being the "go to guy" for that and then working my ass off down at the cabin, there has been little time for riding. But like I said I got out for most of the day and rode through the valley and the backroads of the small towns around like Aldergrove, Abbotsford, Langley,... and almost out to Chilliwack BC. .....I'll see if I can't get away again tomorrow for a bit. Ride safe everyone.
