On Saturday I did a 160 trip from Athens, GA to Mountain City, GA and back. Stumbled across the regional "Warrior Dash" being held in Mountain City. Thousands of participants. Very interesting.

Rode to work this morning and then rode to Wal-Mart later. So far 20 miles for the day. Hope to ride in a few minutes if it doesn't rain.

I finally got out yesterday for a day ride and lunch. I went with "hammer".
Just rode the back roads out Harrison Lake, into Chilliwack then out to the Sumas border crossing. Not a long ride {not sure on the Kms.}but at least it's further than what I've been able to do. Today I'm heading out with "darksider" and one of his friends. First meeting for coffee to decide where we want to go. Weather's a little overcast today so it'l be a bit cooler. Yesterday was a warm one. high 20's I think.

I got out on Thursday and rode with a friend. We did about 325 miles, just cruising the back 2 lane black-tops.

The wife and I got out yesterday for a ride to Middendorf's restaurant in Manchac, LA. World famous thin fried catfish at the Pass between Lake Pontchertrain and Lake Maurepas. Met up with Bruce from Swamp People. 146 miles round trip. Sunny and hot, especially on the way back.

A group of us rode to a open house at a bike shop, we had a 210 mile round trip, and it was a great day for it.

I rode in to work today as usual. But yesterday's ride is why I'm posting. 350 miles round trip, it felt good.

Ron Hunt and I rode about 150 mile on the Foothills Parkway and Little River from Townsend to Pigeon Forge and return back across Foothills Parkway to Home it was cool in the Mtns but Pigeon Forge would cook you so back to the mountain to cool off.

We had a good rain all day, so we had to bring the truck in to work. Havn't done that in a while.
