I headed east today made an easy 40 miles out and 40 miles back short sleeve weather again low wind and sunny as all get out. 82f / 27.7c

I think we are going to have to ban you from this thread. Even here in South Carolina, I'm envious!

But, on the other hand, you do show us what we can look forward to!

Thanks Tim, I had a great day Yesterday. Went to see the Son and his Family.
Gave rides to most everyone there.
Got in late so I didn't post then. I hit rain on the ride home but I was ready for that so not to bad. put over 300 miles in

Rained today and I am having a whole in my tank welded. MY home made coil braket wore a small whole in the under side of the tank. I will ride Wednesday.

Yes...55F today. Kinda unexpected, but welcome none the less. Fired up the '81/H and ran a few errands. I have a luggage box on the rear rack so I can pick up stuff, like Vino, beer, cat food and dog food, Vino, beer...

Took a short ride to the next small town. Went to a great restaurant there. Rode back.

Great day except for my new membership in a gym. Hired a young lady trainer to guide me from a state of no condition at least back a couple of decades to some condition. Tried a plank. Lasted a minute. Asked her how long she could do a plank. Five minutes. Put the paper bag back over my head and went home.

I took the 78' for 100 mile ride to the mountains,Glenville, for lunch. It ran perfect.

 

[pamcopete]

Well, I had a ride yesterday, Saturday, for about 60 miles out and 60 miles back. Left early in the morning. Weather was as forecast, but always the optimist, I thought it would be warmer. Wrong. It was just above freezing when we left. My fingers suffered the most. I would reach down and put them on the warm cylinders. That helped.

Got to destination. A 50's style restaurant . Great traditional breakfast. It was a lot warmer on the ride back. Great day, overall. Bike ran perfectly. Must be why we do this. Ride. Enjoy. Life is simple.
