Tried riding out to Joshua tree yesterday my usual group. Total ride was about 235 miles round trip. The reason i say "tried" was because it really tested everyone's riding skills to our limits. Haha. We ended up riding through pockets of heavy rain that WEREN'T in the forecast. And then when we finally got to clear skies and about 30 miles away from our destination, we dealt with EXTREMELY high winds that were pushing us from the side. It was like those old V8 vegetable juice commercials where everyone was at an angle but it was on bikes instead. Safe to say we never made it to our destination, turned around, and opted for an easy lunch at the closest shops and headed back home.

50 yesterday and about 15 today- actually a big deal- I had CMC Arthroplasty on my clutch hand thumb in march and I'm still sore and looking at a few thousand miles in early june. I still can't pull the clutch on the Heritage (2014) The '04 triumph is "OK" the Enfield is better and the 2016 BMW is easiest- plus it has shift pro-2nd through 6th and back down can be without clutch- just have to be accelerating for upshift and no throttle for down. Can't wait to ride my Harley!! I THOUGHT three months was plenty of time...it isn't. sore now- but less actual pain!
