Absolutely ***** hot today but had to go to the dealer this morning. Was there by 9:00 a.m. so that wasn't bad, but left a little after one.

I had a TPMS light for the rear wheel, it's been finicky for a while. Then the code wouldn't clear. Come to find out, some gremlin was also causing and wreaking havoc with the ABS, they said it was all out of whack. And my Denali lights are intermittent.

and the radio flashes on and off...

So they got the codes cleared, they were clear when I got home, no TPMS light, that part is all good.

But the GTS is still suffering from some ailment whether it's using the thumb drive or FM. May be mutually exclusive, or not. I'm going to try and flash it again tomorrow if there is an update, still researching that.

Good day to be out and about regardless.

 

about 60 miles to eat breakfast at The Lighthouse on old 421 between Lillington NC and Broadway NC.
Mamers NC to be proper. They have a post office.
Eggs over medium, Smithfield bacon (OMG its good), grits, LIVER PUDDING, buttered toast.

First liver pudding I’ve had as good as this since Sonny’s closed in Blowing Rock.

 

City riding just isn't the same as when I'm out it the desert but I did have the Softail out today

 

Forty seven.

 

What brand is the oil cooler? Did I miss that somehow?

 

It's two Derale 20" Heat Sinks. With a Improved racing oil filter sandwich plate.

 

 

It was HOT today here in the Carolinas. Friday and tonight was the Carolina Full Throttle Magazine get together. We rolled out a little before 5pm with an hour ride to Jamestown. We were early and the third bike to arrive. Lincoln, Maggie and Molly were getting everything set up. There were a couple of vendors and a food vendor. We decided to walk over to Adams and have a sun sandwich. It was delicious.

The bikes kept rolling in and before we left there where between 50 to 60 bikes. There was a keg and plenty of canned beer also.

Even that crazy Rob Harper guy showed up!

The ride home around 8pm was so enjoyable

We rode a total of 93 miles. That is a great odd number.

 

'juss under 45 somewhere.

 

I rode out to Carolinas Full Throttle 25th anniversary party. (sorry I didn't take any pics like Cosmic) It was 98 degrees when I left home at 4:00 and traffic on the Raleigh I-540 loop was rolling 85mph nose to tail. Not a fun relaxing start to the ride. On the way home it dropped down to 80 degrees and traffic was light. I had to stop and put a flannel shirt on! Total 216 miles round trip.
