First Ride

Finally got out for my first ride of the season today. Hasn't been all that warm here yet, but figured I'd head out this afternoon. Was about 8 or 9 degrees C (about 46 or 48 F). Put about 40 miles on just around the backroads here. Was kinda rusty as I haven't been out since October but man it felt good to back out again. Hopefully we'll be able to travel by the summer.

Had my first ride of 2020 yesterday

With all the rain and wind we got, roads are cleaner than usual at this period.
Safe ride !

I surely do feel for you folks that have a true winter. SW VA/NW NC winters are pretty mild and more so this year than any I can remember.

Haven't been on the bike since late October , should be heading out next week some time . I have to get off my butt and get the maintenance done first , then it's all social distancing for as far as I can go ..

That’s another thing, we need a good rain here, intersections are still pretty sandy.

I often sit and wonder what it must be like to ride all year long , I sometimes say that I was born in the wrong place , wrong time .

Who knows maybe in my next life ...
