Friday the 13th, super windy, the Corona virus, mass hysteria and a Harley = good times!







They say to use social distancing, so I did. It wasnt an all day ride, but it didn't have to be.

I got me some wind therapy Saturday, after moving the girls home from college, and before Illinois put us in "shelter in place".





It decided to snow Sunday, and this is what we woke up to today.

Ours lasted well past noon Monday, but thankfully it all went away. Too bad a bunch of road salt reappeared. I'm sure the upcoming rain will take care of that. Not that riding is really an option right now.

I don't see the problem with going for a ride without meeting or getting close to anyone, just a ride with no stops. Same with a car, or flying for practice, where I'm always alone.

But, as long as the weather allows, my bike is my transportation for going to the store, or the occasional necessary meeting with a client, keeping my distance.

I took the Night Rod out before lunch, then, since it didn't seem like it was going to rain, as predicted, I decided to give the Limited some love too.


It was much nicer a few hours earlier.

50 miles south east of home, I found the rain...and made a turn to the west. I only saw a few drops.

Add this to the 110 miles I got on the Night Rod and it was a pretty decent Easter.
