Excellent ride yesterday! Rain held off till late. Linn Run State Park Ohiopyle Lots of covered bridges in the area Little hidden place called Blue Hole
Liking the V-Rod much more than I expected! Crazy top end power. Weird getting used to very little low torque but eats up the mountain grades like nothing. Nice catching up with my high school friends & getting out of the heat.
Cleaned up the bike and checked tires after a great week of riding. Despite the heat I was on a roll and rode every day for 7 days. 1200 or so miles , some in the rain gets the bike filthy. COnvention and group rides HArrisburghPA.,
It's like 90 degrees and high humidity, plus the air quality (thanks Canada) sucks again. The air looks like you could cut it with a knife, so no riding for me. The heat doesn't really bother me, but that hazy, smoking, ugly air / sky, gives me no desire to ride. I'm in my second year of retirement and I ride less now, than I did when I worked, weird.
Spent Friday thru Monday packing, moving and unpacking my twins' crap, I mean belongings. They moved 167 miles away. Today, after mowing my lawn, I was finally able to get my old body back on the bike. I went for a 3-hour ride, got a little wet, even though it was as sunny as could be when I started my ride, and ended up with 138 on the tripmeter. I'd rather spend 16 hours on the bike, than spend another hour moving furniture...lol.
Spun the wheels on the Night Rod yesterday. Nothing much, as I still fear the sputtering issue will raise its ugly head. It ran fine for what few miles I rode it.
I miss riding this monster.
It was a beautiful day.
Just enough to make me smile.
Changed the oil in the Limited tonight. Kind of interesting mileage number.
