              Got a lovely hundred miles in this evening with my bride.
              We saw all kinds of deer. Does, fawns, bucks. A goat farm. Horses, cows, even some with medium horns.
              Saw a kitten startle and arch defensively when a turkey vulture got too close.
              Saw Amish folks that waved at us.
              Caught up with two couples on Harleys who were enjoying the 50-mph road at about 35. It was twisty enough that there was no opportunity to pass for a few miles. I was a little perturbed but I got over it. I'm sure they were having fun, just like I was. (not a helmet among the four of them... :/)
              God, I love riding.

                No pics to provide, but yesterday I decided to go for a "little" ride. 2 hours and 91 miles later I pulled into the garage. Great weather!

                    I went out for a ride last Sunday. I was in the Akron Ohio aria and decided to see if there was any race action going on at Derby Downs. Every time I go there I learn something new. I was able to see up close how they align the wheels. Also they exchange wheels between competitors between rounds. Did you know there's more girls than boys that race, ages from 8 to 21. About 60%girls to 40% boys I'd say. It really is a family sport.☺

                    Note: this photo shows them already across the finish line. They are out of there "tucked" position.

                      I rode out to the barn tonight with the hope of riding Lou but the rain we had today was bad enough to have thoroughly soaked the outdoor arena area. So, after helping the barn owner fix a gate, I took off for a short ride back home getting in an additional 30 miles.

                          I went for a ride on Monday and used the video cam to record my trip through some twisty lanes etc.

                          It was a perfect day for it except that when I got home I forgot to take the camera out and instead left it switched on to record hours of footage of my garage door, thereby overwriting my nice cruise.

                          Seems like I'm having one of those weeks.

                            I took the new (to me) DL1000 out last night after work for the first time since picking it up last weekend. It's going to take some getting used to for sure. It certainly has more get up and go than the 850G, GS 1100L I owned previously, and the 1100E that I considered buying last month. Granted neither of those 1100's were tuned to their max potential though.

                            I've got some work to do on this Vee before going on any long trips. Being a 2002, there's an issue with the clutch that is got me reading up on something called "chudder".

                            I'm going to get to know this bike very well in no time but hey, at least I waited till the after our second date to get intimate.

                              I had occasion to park downtown and wanted to lock my jacket to my bike, so I did that.

                                Went to the Steel City Mods vs Rockers today. Actually had more Suzuki two strokes than four strokes.


                                The 2 Suzuki four strokes.
