I needed to blast from being cooped up in the office all day... Even longer day today... Planning to rack miles after work.

Did grab a few miles after work:

Lake Bomoseen

Nice ride got home had to mow the lawn, realized I needed to get new gas for the power equipment, fitted the Jerry can to the TUX and away I went!

Nothing like Ethanol free premium (and 5oz of Stab-il Marine formula) to keep the mowers, weed whacker and chain saw running great all season long!

Got home and fired up my ugly. My 94 John Deere STX38 lawn tractor! 5th season with it... $100, love it!

I rode after dinner last night for a while. Perfect evening for a nice "quick" trip to the store on the GS. 175 miles later I pulled into the garage and realized I "forgot" to go to the store!

Sunset shot Northeast of Santa Fe.

Dude "the ugly" is a tank!
Nice day for sure!

"The ugly" is an awesome bike. There are a few bikes here with inimitable character. That is one of them.

Roger, thats a beautiful shot.

Been riding in the area on 5 visits, and this time I find this road.
Have seen it on maps, have heard people mention it. Have gone past it before.
Yesterday I had time to take it. Great. Needs to go on my list of top recommendations around here.

Mesa Grande.

Quick short early morning ride, for Stabil and top off the tank.
Swung bye the beach again (same as first ride).

Stopped bye the pier to see whats happining.
Guys jumping out of vans with surfboards. GUys walking from nearby condos(?) with surfboards, some walking back.
A couple street musicians sitting around. Other folks sitting around that look like they hang out there a lot.
Folks walking dogs.
And tourist stopping to take pictures.

Bike now back in corner of daughters garage, in storage mode. <<heavy sigh>>

That's not a bike meet...it's where Dave works. But we do have plenty of bike meets here. Very active motorcycle community here.

Such a cool looking Kat that Rob put together.
Dave, have you got all the bugs out from the bike being laid up for a while?

Had to fly back home to Michigan, and get the GK back together, so can have some GS pictures posted.
Seems to be a lot of non-GS bikes posted here, even those weird things with cylinders sticking out both sides.

SHort ride today after getting it back together.
Stopped at this park, but decide not to go to the other side of the park thru this road.

Nope... rear brake caught fire on the way in that morning. Had never seen a rotor glowing that bright of red since I used to watch F1 races in the Senna/Prost era.

All good now... sort of one of the bonuses of working at a bike shop is being able to put your own bike on your life and fix it while surrounded by parts and tools! Will be replacing the scorched rotor at some point but everything else is back to a serviceable state.

Swung bye the beach again (same as first ride).

Looks like some fun waves. Trying to get myself back in the water, been a year and a half since I got wet.
The last few times out, I got pummeled.

Enjoyed a Sunday afternoon ride with my darling, then some Sunday afternoon chores with my darling. No pictures.

Man we have got some photographers in this group! Awesome shots all. Maybe some day I'll have the time AND the weather at the same time and I can post a few of my own. What's everybody using for cameras? I have a fairly fancy Nikon DSLR, and an Android phone that takes really crappy pictures that wouldn't do justice to whatever scene I might be trying to capture.
