    A very rainy ride down KY-92 five years ago when the family and I went to Stearns KY (Cumberland Falls). I learned a lot about my gear over that interesting 4th of July weekend

      There are some great shots here! Those clouds and that lighting tell us everything about your ride, Cowboyup.

            I did. To the right. One of my last rides for a while, unfortunately. I destroyed something or a lot of things in my engine today. But that’s a story for another thread.

                    Scott's (Cowboyup) shot speak to me having spent my share of time doing long rides in the rain. That's my vote this week, lots of great submissions!
                    sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
                    2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

                    Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                      Great submissions, lots of variety!
                      I made a shortlist and even then there was one that kept my full attention and that was loccoli​. It's the framing, the bit of a blur, and the hunker of the shoulders.

                          This was a great theme idea. I had something in mind for an entry, but couldn't pull it off.

                          Voting for Redman (Dave)

                          Judging by the needles on the gauges, you were definitely in action. I'm pretty sure my MSF instructor would have said that's not an ideal way to approach a turn.

                          Possibly almost out of gas too?

                            That's too bad. Until this week, only two GSR folks had submitted a picture every week of 2020: you and Bob (baatfam).
                            Seventeen weeks into 2020, and Bob has submitted 17 entries. You and Scott (cowboy) and Vince (gustovh) and Dave (redman) have each submitted 16. Scott (marvinsc) and I have each submitted 15.
