      Had some things going on today, but managed to get out for an hour or so.

      65degF, so saw a few other bikes.






      Well, of the hour, okay, yah, was a couple roadside picture stops, and a 15 minute quick pier walk



      I hope to get out for an all afternoon ride tommorow.

                Ahh that's right the GSX-S1000GT should have been here already... I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of that!

                It's a great feeling to roll a bike over into the 6 figure mark on the odometer! I just did the 100K mile service on the T120 the other day and went for a nice 200 mile ride with it afterward. No more big tourers for it, the Yamaha is far better equipped and more comfortable for the big miles, it's just a baby though still under 19K miles on the odometer.




                Ride safe and enjoy that west cost ride!

                  Had a short morning ride, 50 degF, out for a pier walk and then out for coffee and then more of a short ride.


                  THen this afternoon, mid 70s, got out for a 3 hour ride north and back along the lakeshore.

                  THis just north of Muskegon, Mr. Greg78 area.


                  THis clser to Whitehall.




                  Maybe longest ride since getting it back together in November.
                  Good to get in some miles and seat time before BC in four weeks.

                    20220511_112753.jpg I had a few days off work, so I decided to do the S.O.L. (southern Ohio loop). I rode south to Marietta Ohio, I had a wonderful meal, I spent the night there... Today I worked my way north. I had to stop to see the "Big Muskey", well it's shovel anyway. A huge Drag Line shovel that was used to remove earth to get to the Coal.
                    I had a wonderful couple of day exploring southeast Ohio.

                    Oh, if the seat looks hard, it is! 200 miles and I'm done! Lol

                      Ride yesterday.
                      had noticed that have been kinda careless operating the clutch on take off lately, which I have learned that if get away with that is probably sign that clutch is slipping. So on ride today…. Yep, can get clutch to slip without trying too hard. Checked cable adjustment, okay. Oh…..pouieeee.

                        Gorgeous weather.
                        Got the GS 100% up to snuff this year and finally have the electrics sorted. Passed State inspection and put about 200 miles on the 44 year old bike over the past couple of days. Not bad looking for a $500 barn find.



                        It's a sweet little peach of a bike. Very happy with it.

                          I went for a 50km test ride. It seemed to work well. It was raining so much and my fingers was so cold I didnt really feel like picture taking.

                          When I got home it was snowing. Good news is my new rain clothes seems to keep me 100% dry.

                              On my way to wake up the 6 year old grand kid so we could watch last nite's lunar eclipse. Of course you can't see it cuz my phone camera is crap but there is a respectable bite out of the moon at this point.



                              My kid has a much better camera on his phone and got this pic>



                              The grand kid did get up and see it but he was pretty out of it and went back to bed.
