A great day to go for a ride
A beautiful warm day here in Michigan. I took the EVO out went to the local MSF track. Did some of the exercises from the ride look pro DVD and then just took the bike and drove around with no particular place to go.
I'm going to miss these days as winter sets in.

Same here. I started out this afternoon, and after about 10 miles I came to an intersection where a guy on a Shovel going by just started sputtering and quit. I stopped to see what I could do, and after a little while we got it started again, so he and his wife headed for home about 3 miles, and I told them I would follow. He got about a mile from home and it quit again. We checked all the usual stuff, but could not get it running again. We did get him home but it kind of took much of my riding time. It was a nice day just to be out though. I sure love my 99 FXSTC.

Wife and I went out for an hour today. Took the backroads and took it slow. Even with the temp reading 63 and a supposed southern wind it was chilly. Flags were blowing and standing off the pole indicating the 25 to 30 mph west wind. Got blown around and this time of the year it combined to make it chilly.
I commented that the only trees left were either baron or some were still green and full of leaves ... wtf. My Oak leaves came down over the last two days, Maples have been baron for weeks. It was willows and scrappy ditch willows that were green. Only one more day of low 60s for the high and this week we drop from the 50's to 40's for our average.
Felt lonely on the roads today, and the sun sat at 5:15 tonight. Lost an hour overnight ... poof!

I did the exact same thing other than going to the msf track and dvd and probably had the same weather as you.

I took a ride to Yucca Valley for some fish & chips. The sky was clear & blue, winds were low and temp was 69. Life is good!
