Nice pictures. Really nice pictures.

You know my friend, it is so funny, sometimes I will be walking up to my bike… Be it in the garage or in a parking spot here in Florida or wherever and I will think the bike is so good-looking I have to take a picture of it and I do.

I think maybe I am falling in love with my bike. LOL that sounds like a stupid thing to say.

Looks like some good rides. Might be a bit before we see 70 again though. Takes me almost an hour just to get away from all the suburban Chicago crap but I see I need to do some more after work riding.

One day you should head straight east, hit the mighty Mississsip', and head north on the east side
of the river. Absolutely gorgeous ride all the way up to Alma WI (my back yard, almost). Hilly,
bluffy, beautiful.

I'm about to cut out of work and take the long way home on my '17 FLHTK. Nice day for that.

Sweet bike, BTW.

What part of Illinois are you in? I grew up north of Peoria.

Thanks for the comments guys.

I was about to go to work today, then I looked outside. I took a vacation day and headed to LaCrosse Wisconsin, via lots of back roads. It was a gorgeous day. 500 miles in 12 hours.









Rochelle is where I hang my hat....btw.

Did a benefit ride today, for Vets Roll. A little windy, but a good ride and a great turnout.

We started in Rockford Illinois and ended in Clinton Wisconsin.

We went for lunch today in Louisiana...Crawdaddy's. 380 miles round trip, 65-75° and 9:39 to 5:30. And my white beard was noticeably darker with the crap in the air. No maps. No pictures.
