Tail of the Dragon. First overlook. The colorful trash can use to be on the other side of the road, overlooking the dam.

Bought a couple photos from the professionals. They had at least 6-7 photo locations.

Yesterday and today were nice weather (after cold, rainy, windy) and I was able to get away for the day today.
Today is one of the few over 70degF so far. 75 this afternoon seemed good and warm with clear skys.

Was mid 50s this morning but warming up nicely. Headed out about 9am, . . . and (some can guess) . . . . stopped at local recordstore/coffee shop for a while, then headed out on a favorite ride that puts together a route of some roads that somewhat follow Muskegon river.


Stopped for lunch. ANd a visit to a jerky store. Newaygo.


THen headed off in a further direction that I dont often go. Went thru area that has lots of apple orchards and peach orchards.
Found a place where could get a closer look.


Rolled back into town about 3pm. Only a little over 150 miles.
Hey, beach parking lot now open at the state park. Hey, that is kinda like summer time.

another shot

Had my boy out for his first real ride on the GS. Beautiful sunset ride through forest gravel and back country roads. Glad he got his good looks from his mom. I remember having hair like that.

1st actual road ride for Goldie today. She ran like a champ, after the ride I leaned out the idle circuit a bit. Another test tomorrow and a carb sync and plug change if I like it. She runs extra hard and will eat my CBF1000 easily. After all these decades I still love the ride of these bikes better than anything else. This is just a vew blocks from my house, I put over 100km on today, fresh build but she loved the exercise..

Your bike looks great in that colour! Would love to meet you this summer out your way

Took the Sportster to work yesterday, and will again today. Probably going to sell the Sporty and buy an older (Evo) Road King later this year so that that 65 mile one way is more enjoyable (and to enjoy some longer road trips to other states).

I've been mulling over the idea of getting a "solid mount" '90s Sportster 1200 for local riding/commuting. My short lived experiment with the '80 Shovelhead Low Rider left me hooked on the whole "potato-potato" thing, but I didn't like having $7000 tied up in what amounted to a fun toy for local riding. A $3k Evo sportster sounds like a better bet.
