Been riding quite a bit lately. Just ordered a Fueling camchest and going to get that installed soon. Part one of my make over!

Guess nobody is/wants to go to Sturgis this year.

man you sure picked a bad week to "quit NJ"..... although I see it's hot as crap there as well

This is the hottest spell we've had in a while.... and no sign of things letting up soon. It isn't bad @ 3:30 AM when I roll out for work.... but good golly, there is NO relief on the ride home.... and I take the shady roads home.

Good news is.... we'll have a "cold front" rolling through by july 4.... should be mild in the mid-90's.

I might do a series of lunch rides..... mid week... ride & eat.... buddy of mine is doing them from RPHD on Thursdays... (or rather WAS in June.... dunno what his plans are)

Ditto on the heat wave here, but I'm not sure NJ is any better. I just sent in my Raleigh Chapter registration form so I will be participating in some rides from RPHD as soon as I can. Looking forward to it.

This ain't Mayberry dude, that's a day's ride from the big city. Now Mount Olive, that's a little closer.

dunno that ya need to be a "member" for all their rides.... just sign a waiver.
Durham (Shelton's) has an active chapter... as does Rocky Mount HD.

Several chapters of SCRC, and RETREADS if you're so inclined... plus "Meetup.com" has a few groups too. No lack of riding around here

Thanks for the info Scootch. So if I'm a member of the Raleigh chapter at RPHD can I ride with folks from Sheltons? That's actually closer for me but I like RP better in general. Anyway, looking forward to some group rides once the weather gets back to normal.
