Smile It was too nice to not ride today! **PICS**

With work yesterday and fashioning the custom mount for tour pack during the night, I couldn't join the rest of riding buddies and was jealous after seeing their pics. So I went for a little 75 miles test-ride to see how well the tour trunk was mounted.

Real nice pictures on a nice day. We have one here today but after yesterday, my shoulders are still sore. Too much too soon I guess, so I'm taking the day off.

Nice. I had to look three times at that bike before I realized what it was. Good job!

It is pretty but I prefer faster paced riding. Slow 30 MPH rides drive me crazy after about 20 minutes. A1A along the ocean down here is visually spectacular but I can only ride on it for about 3 miles before I have to turn off. Too slow and mundane .

Nice pics!

Wish we had that weather here. Started raining Saturday and even took out a bunch of stuff with a lightning strike at my house. Supposed to rain all week.
