Rode about 190 miles today with Mr and Mrs Cajunrider to Morganza, LA, and then up to The Three Rivers Control structure. Great trip, company, and food, just hotter than living hell coming home. It was noticeably cooler when riding over the spillway.

Perfect riding weather today. Low 70s, clear sunny day. Road 115 miles to get lunch. It was worth it.

A couple of friends and I did 180 miles today with the last thirty in the rain. Started out really nice with the temps in the 70's but it turned on us before we got back home. Those lowers that I got from Cycle Cat were worth every cent today in the rain. I was a lot drier when we got back than the other two were.

Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

::) We were so undecided as to where to ride today as it was our 1st rain free day in the last 9 day's.
We ended up going east through northern Lancaster Co Pa. then south and eventually southwest across Lancaster Co and the Susquehanna River into northern Maryland where we stopped for a great lunch of Chesapeake Oyster's. Then headed west through the beautiful northern Md horse country. We zigged & zagged our way over to Westminster Md, then headed north across the Mason Dixon into Pa stopped for "I Scream" then home.
A very nice ride of 175 mi only to come home and cut grass....
again. (every 4 day's since April with all this rain)

Rode 55 miles today testing out my newly installed Brakeaway cruise control. It was very windy and by the time I got home and the Nomad cleaned up, we were under a tornado watch. the Brakeway is a nice addition!

Got in about 170 miles today, went over to Gator Joe's then up to MacIntosh to the Creamery for some ice cream. Hotter than blue blazes. One sign said 100, a couple others said 97. Summer is here in Florida.

After my 439 mile ride yesterday I only rode 4 miles today. Have to let the butt rest up.
