Eustis, Florida up to JP Cycles up in Ormond Beach. All back roads. Beautiful day to ride. Had a late lunch on the way back overlooking the St. Johns River in Astor. Total 131 miles.

You were on some of the best roads in the center of the state.

Rode over to Biketoberfest for a little bit today. I guess I'm over the whole festival scene because we only stayed for about 45 minutes, lol. About 240 miles.

I've been riding to work all week. The temps have been in the 60-70 range during the day and in the mid 40's at night. I work night shift 6pm to 6am. A little cool riding home of a morning (30 miles each way), but nice.

Rode to Ells funeral yesterday. Total of 260 miles. When I hit the valley, temps dipped into the 30's. A little chilly.

Pegs down for Ells.

I didn't realize you worked that far from home. My commute is 30 miles. Going to work isn't as bad as going home. Then again it's temporary anyway.

It's 17-18 miles each way, plus a few miles at lunch. It takes me 30 minutes to go to work and about 20 to go home.

Yeah, it takes me 35-40 to get to work and 45-50 to get home. I only go out for lunch once a week and it's walking distance. That afternoon traffic is starting to get to me.
