Default Taking a trip

On Saturday the 23rd, I am riding up just south of Traverse City, Michigan for my sisters graduation. My Dad and I are then going from Michigan back to New Jersey to see my Brother and then heading up to Rochester, New York to see my Dad's brother. It should be a great trip. Hoping for decent weather .

We are leaving Michigan on the Tuesday the 26th and I will be returning on May 30th to Illinois.

This will be the first ride with Dad, I am really looking forward to it. I just ordered the Cardo Scala Rider intercom kits, so we can talk to one another while riding.

Father and Son rides = GREAT FUN, and lasting memories! Ride safe and enjoy. Hope you get good weather. My last trip with one of my son's had one long, full day of nothing but rain. It was miserable, but we've talked about it 1000 times since. Enjoy.

This is the one I got off Ebay $246 and free shipping. I did a search here and everyone seemed to be happy with the product.

I wish my dad still rode a bike. Oh well, his affair with motorcycles was short lived. Sounds like great fun. You got all your goodies for the trip? Enjoy yourself...
