          There were not too many. It was quite refreshing in that all makes of motorcycles were waving to each other. Usually, each segment waves to its own and ignores the other. Its just nice to see the mutual respect.

            Been doing carb tuning the last few days. It's really close. A little warm at 30-35c but we'll get it done.

              Another mountain ride, another Timber Rattler. When I first rode by this fella, I thought it was a road apple (horse poop). Didn’t see the pattern til a was passing about 3’ from it. Stopped and walked back to have a look but kept a polite distance. He stayed coiled up but flicked his tail out and rattled at me to let me know I was disturbing his nap.

                Did a quick run to Alta (8 hour ride, about 560 kilometers) to test everything and visit a friend. Bike ran great, it was a little cold and to beat the weather I avoided all non-essential stops.

                I was planning on doing Nordkapp but I have decided against it beause it is cold and Id rather go when I have more time. Need to be back home before the day after monday.

                Ill get more pictures on the way back, Ill take my time going back.

                    Been stiflingly hot here for a few days, the only bearable time for me to ride was when the sun was setting... well it was Saturday evening anyway, our overnight temps for the past two nights have been too close to 30*C for comfortably gearing up so I stayed at home cuddled up next to the a/c...

                      Hot in Vermont. 96'F or 36'C Dodging afternoon T-storms but got home stripped the Fizzy down and blasted in the mountains where the temps were in the 80's.

                        My ride back from Alta was like the perfect ride, at least for the first half. I wake up, the sun is up, the weather is warm. I say godbye to my friends parents (he was still asleep) and load my bike. My paracord solution to attach my spider and cargo net was brilliant, loading it was fast and easy, but I need to make bigger loops.

                        The bike started as soon as I looked at the starter button and it just ran SMOOOTH. The temperature was just right, the exhaust fix worked wonders for torque and I was just having a great time. I was a bit bad at stopping, I was just in the zone and it was all so good. Like this is what I want from a trip, decent weather, working bike, easy loading.

                              I rode through town last night dodging thunderstorms and enjoying fireworks. It seemed like every street/ house and city park had some sort of diplay going on. I never got rained on and the light show was phenominal. Man, what an exilharating ride! Sure beats sitting in a lawn chair watching fireworks from one spot.

                                That's so cool. Glad y'all got to ride together some. Weird seeing picture of the two of you and it not be in Brown County.
