OK its time lets hear what your doing!
Its been a long cold winter in the midwest. And as mother nature starts to turn things green again and the sounds of spring come out and the salt and brin wash from the roads its RIDIN TIME. For some of the lucky folks around the country have been riding as they don't see the dreaded snow.
But what you got planned for this year, your big rides, your adventures.
Of coarse i will ride like a bat out of hell every day i can till the snow comes back. So far i have been able to get out once or twice a month over the winter.
The only major thing i have planned so far is a trip to York Pa in june leaving out on a Thursday morning with my DAD and two coworkers. Get to York by end of the day and tour the HD plant since we make parts for them should be a good tour. Then hang out friday and sat and ride all around the area with friends we know from the plant. Sunday morning start back making our way slower threw the mountian areas and more senic areas of PA dont plan to be back till sometime late monday.
Later in the year i will probably take the same length trip down into Tenn and NC around the blue ridge parkway area.

I was planning on riding to the Grand Canyon next week, but since I am probably taking a job transfer, that trip will be nixed and I will be going to the city I am transferring to and find a house. Other than that, just a few rallies here in Texas and maybe the rally in Ruidoso, MN in Sept.
RE: OK its time lets hear what your doing!
I got a bunch of trips planned... I leave may 22 for 10 days to key west from chicago... then June we are going from chicago to Hell Michigan so we can say we have been to hell and back.... July 4th we will head to southern missouri to hang with family and friends leaving from chicago and taking old route 66... prob a ton more of weekend warrior trips, then we will do a couple bike ralleys this year and of course the HD aniversary, anyone near chicago and likes to ride, we hit the higway and backroads pretty much every weekend for a trip and every night for a cruise!

I grew up in Northern Indiana, F'n cold in the winter and humid in the summer............ Don't ya just LOVE spring and the days you can get your bike out. Doing Sturgis this year, riding from there to Indiana maybe, visit my brother. I figure that will be a week of dodging pot holed roads............ Then head back to The Emerald City via Yellowstone, Reno, to the Oregon Coast. God how I love The Pacific Northwest. When I get to Astoria I'll head on down the Columbia to 97, north to 90 and them over the pass into Seattle. It's good to be retired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The wife and I are planning a trip from Pa to Ca and back in July. We're going to stop at a few national parks, badlands, mt.rushmore, yellowstone, gran tetons, and grand canyon. We blocked off the entire month for the trip. Also going to do sky line drive in the spring.
