I’ll try to get some pictures. We left this morning, it was rough. First three hours were brutal, rain sleet and snow. I felt like the mailman. By the time we got into Pennsylvania it started to clear up and the roads dried up.Made it to Winchester Virginia for the night.🥱😴

Not a bad ride in those conditions.

Stay safe.

We got back this morning from our road trip. You can sure tell your back in New York. From the state line to Syracuse on I 81 we saw 9 state troopers. And don’t forget the rough roads. Gotta love New York.😆
Sorry about no pictures. Only pictures my wife and I took where family.
Great ride and good to see grand kids. The way down we took the back roads,I do that again. On the way back we took the main highway. We were trying to beat the rain. (which we did) Yesterday we did 441 miles in 7 hours. We had 145 miles to go my wife says “I’m done “ 😆 We’re both retired and geriatric 😆
The bike ride great. Back home and back to reality.👍😎

H-44, a little on the side but I think of it EVERY time I here "Syracuse".

Neat a Hampton Inn where I would stay, I would go across the street into a field where there was an OLD OLD OLD farmhouse ...... converted into The Green Onion Restaurant. <-- AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would go outta my way to stay there and EAT at the Green Onion.

You know of them?

Fd was awesome, the owner(s) just as amazing.....
