**a340driver** · 09-08-2013, 06:33 PM

Headed out at 5:30 to pick up some dinner, got back at 7:15 .. and ya forgot the dinner, found out my bikes also real stable at 140km/hr ... and burned the other 1/2 tank I had on page 137

Rode 9 miles and got the vaq into storage today. With my back so messed up this year, got 30 miles over last 5 months and probably didn't break 300 for season. Just gonna pretend this year didn't happen....

Only positive is my truck now fits in the garage!

Hopefully your back will be better next year and you can get out for a ride with some us that ride and live in MA.

I am reviving this thread since Spring is in the air here. I have been lucky enough to ride a hundred or so miles a couple of times in the last week and weekends. Today the weather finally cleared and I was able to ride to work and back! I have a 70 mile run planned to the Alabama/Mississippi line this weekend for a 3 day rally plus some riding around the countryside there. I post pics here every year. Ride safe!

Rode the 17 miles to work yesterday and took the Long way home. About 90 miles out of the way. All in all a great ride and happy to get out. Straight home today though. Too much to do.

davidhollinger · 03-21-2014, 11:01 AM

Rode back to work today in 33 degree temps. Sun is rising fast and I am leaving at noon for a 3 day weekend rally.

cactusjack · 03-21-2014, 12:27 PM

Rode 17 miles to work this morning. It was in the low 40's in my neck of the woods, the ride home should be in the 80's though.

Bud2rat · 03-22-2014, 03:07 PM

How I long for a ride on the roads of Vt., actually we need the
frost heaves to flatten out a little.

Thomas · 03-23-2014, 04:57 PM
