Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

Great day yesterday I took the Beast too work and did a couple of errands afterwards; only 10 miles.

Rode in to work again today. They were giving a 70% chance of rain but mostly for the afternoon. I made it to and from work without getting wet. Total miles so far for the day is at 17.

Rode later in the day after getting some rest. Work takes more out of me these days than it once did. Rode an additional 8 miles for a total of 26 miles for the day. The Nomad rolled over the 15,000 mile mark today.

Get that metal on your arm covered up, the reflection is scaring the fish away. :)

Fish hide at the sound of your name?

Rode 9 miles early in the day on two separate trips. Just got back from a trip to Guntersville, AL. Round trip was 30 miles so my total miles for the day was 39.

I was planning a nice long ride today. Was in the carport doing some shining on the Nomad. Noticed it was very cloudy and heard some thunder. Then the rain hit. Ended up working on the bike instead of a long ride.

Did get in a short ride of 5 miles after the rain and the streets pretty much dried.

I went for about a 50 mile ride today through Mesa and back. I'm on call this weekend, so I had to be able to get back home in a hurry. Then I ended up replacing the alternator in my car. It's a real treat working over a hot engine in a 120 degree garage.

Did You Ride Today? Where To and How Far?

Finally took an afternoon and went for a ride. I'm at my cabin in Northern WA and have been residing my cabin with spruce log siding. My friend "midge" is here from Calgary at his cabin and has been helping me with my work.



We decided to work till noon and then go for a ride. So we fired up my Nomad and his 2010 Voyager and took a ride from the Mt Baker area, down #542 or hwy 9 then out Hwy 20 to Anacortes WA. Had a bite and rode back. Not a huge ride but nice just to get out.

Rode about 320 miles today with the heat index in excess of 110. Had lunch at a restaurant located inside a cave on the side of a river bluff. The cave was nice and cool, however. I've put over 1,000 miles on the new bike in two weeks. :)
