Default Managed a little ride

The weather man was not completely accurate for the forecast this weekend.

They over depend on those computer models like some folks over depend on the GPS.

Anyway after a quick breakfast and a late start we did manage to squeeze in a little ride today. Becky rode 2 up with me while HondaGal tagged along. We rode out the Martin County Grade Rd up into Okeechobee down to Lakeport to cut across the Brighton Indian Reservation across the Kissimmee prairie home.

Got rained on a little a couple times. 1x not even worth mentioning.



Hope you were able to ride as well.

BTW: Killed a few Love Bugs along the way

No roiling for me the one time I thought about sneaking away out started pouring as soon as I opened the garage, lol.

Who's that baby faced guy on Big Gator's bike?

Glad you were able to ride brother.

I rode with Scott (rsfrazier) , his wife Linda and a rider named Gregg today. Managed to get over 250 and stayed dry all day. We were doing creative routing all day long though. Wound up eating at Mannys chop shop in Lake Whales. Pretty good food. Ooops, Looks like Scott and me were posting at the same time.
